I had similar research experience (~3 good experiences and a poster presentation) and a very similar GRE score (312, 4,5 AW) when I applied. I was accepted to two programs ranked 50-100 last application cycle (I applied to mainly top 50s and a few 50-100). I'm not sure how similar social and cognitive psych are as far as competitiveness goes, though. Feel free to pm if you have any questions

Iowa State University Social Psychology Feel free to PM if you’ll be going to ISU as well!

Congrats! That's a great program!

Has anyone heard anything from UT Austin yet? Seems like someone should've heard by now but I couldn't find anything for social on the results page.

The campus was really nice. The psych department was a spread out across a couple buildings, but they were all in close proximity to each other. I didn't see much of the campus, though. It was pretty cold and windy when I was there, but there wasn't much snow which was nice. They also had a great bus system to get around campus and the city. Feel free to message me if you have any other questions!

School: Iowa State University Concentration: Social Type: PhD Date of acceptance: 2/21 Notified by: Email from POI. Super excited! I really loved it when I interviewed there.

CONGRATS!!! That's awesome!

Going into March like

It's probably okay to inquire about application status. I emailed a few schools (deadlines were early to mid Dec.) to ask about the status of my application, but only got generic replies (paraphrasing: "applications are currently under review and you will be notified when a decision is made"). I'm sure the informativeness of the response varies, though. Good luck! Edited for grammar

I interviewed last Friday and received an acceptance Monday. It seems like they get back to you pretty quick (within the next week) but I’m sure it can vary considerably.

I haven't heard from UT Austin yet but I know their interviews are in February and March (not sure of the exact date unfortunately). I have a few friends who applied there as well who haven't heard anything either.

I just had one yesterday. 3 group with faculty, 1 solo with faculty, 3 solo with grad students, and a group with all the grad students from the lab. The group interviews were surprisingly not as stressful as the solos. Good luck!

This is all for social/personality, so I can't speak for any of the other areas, but: WashU sent out all of their interviews earlier this month and they're having interviews on the 31st of January. UT Austin is in the still in the process of reviewing applications and will hold interviews February and March (I emailed them on Friday so I can't guarantee this is still true). I know last application cycle they sent rejection emails to the bottom 50% of the applicant pool and interview invites to the top few percent. The rest were essentially considered "waitlisted". My PI initials were MS for WashU and SG for UT Austin.

Sorry I should've specified social. My mistake

UNC has already sent out invites everyone they're interested in interviewing.

Thank you! That's really strange they didn't at least get back to you

Has anyone heard anything from: Washington University in St. Louis University of Georgia University of Texas at Austin Thanks in advance!

Do you mind sharing your POI? I also applied at UGA.
