    I dunno if people do this, but I've obviously written it in a much more professional manner and reached out to my UBC V POI when I got rejected in January, and potentially a way to inquire about the reasons why you didn't make the cut... if your relationship with them feels adequate for that kind of conversation. Certainly wouldn't hurt! But not necessary 

    I was rejected from a program and composed an email saying thanks for the consideration, enjoyed our interview etc.. I was offered a position as a lab coordinator as a result, which was super cool! It's important to try and be remembered if you didn't get accepted and hope to apply again :)

    Received a rejection for McGill Clinical CGS-M just now. Apparently this is the day for rejections ? I didn't interview so I wouldn't have been able to accept it anyhow, but would've been nice to put on the CV

    How did you find out about your CGS-M status for that program - my application portal hasn't changed.

    From what I know they sent a list of their preferred candidates, with their first choice indicated, to the grad coordinator and the director of the grad program. The director is reaching out to every first-choice applicant via phone, and thus already knows who to call. Also from what I heard, all POIs sent their lists by a certain deadline but calls could still be going on. Good luck!

    This makes me sad. ?

    I am currently at Ryerson (for psych science; switching after changing my career objectives) and I was approached by my supervisor in March after the open house. There were students in the clinical stream who went through a similar situation. So there is still hope for those who have not heard. 

    Yeah I was explicitly told by the individual I interviewed with at Rye to not expect to hear anything for several months regarding short-list and final decisions, and that I would be notified by Ryerson directly, not by them, regarding acceptance soooo... fingers crossed!! Unless they didn't want me right off the back and want to let me down easy ? who knows!

    Wow that's like another level of uncertainty I wasn't aware of! Regardless, sending you good vibes! ^.^ 

    I know!!! AND I also think it takes a bit of pressure off because at a certain point we just have to accept that we have advocated and represented ourselves the best we possible could. Sometimes, especially with Clinical Psychology acceptance, these things are dependent on factors beyond our control.

    LOL - obvi I have been rehearsing this to myself for weeks ? 

    Thanks for the vibes they are much needed and same to you.

    Oh snap, you're right. Usually the POI recommends the one person they want (unless they taking two so they recommend two) and FGS usually agrees (as long as min requirements are met). I'm surprised the committee decides WHO gets an offer of admission--its usually the POI's decision. Hmmm @Psych_101

    She was saying it also depends on how many students were accepted into varying labs the previous year. Like if she took two last year and wants two this year, and a different lab didn't take any students last year and has two students they want, than there will have to be pull one way or the other, as they can't take all four students.

    We've already established on this thread that no, you don't just get accepted without some kind of interview. The exception being if you already work for the POI.

    Edit: I believe Ryerson had to have profs ranked shortlisted applicants sent to the FGS by last Friday. Sorry :(

    Yes! When I interview last week my POI said that the process moving forward would be that she would now submit her top two people to the committee and they ultimately will make the final decision based on optics of applicants and how their GPA, funding acceptances, publications, and GREs reflect on the program. 

    She also does not participate in interview day so she told me to expect not to be invited! Hopefully that helps! :D
