Congrats to all those who were successful! And for those who weren't this time around, it is so subjective and you are still an amazing academic to have made it this far. It is such a gruelling process. I am wondering if anyone else is hoping for a May 1st start date and if you think that will be feasible given how late the awards were announced? I am wondering if I should just say Sep. 1st instead to make it simpler..

Been lurking on here all day and wanted to share I was awarded a CGS-D! In disbelief and so happy! This was my second time applying but 1st time to NSERC (CIHR last year). 196 - psychology. Found out about 15mins ago

Hi all!! Would love to meet fellow grad students going to Uvic in September I'll be starting grad school in clinical neuropsychology!

I would like to add (as a Canadian who applied to Canadian schools this year but met a lot of students from the states at my open houses) that you should look into funding! Canada has 3 funding bodies for research: NSERC, SSHRC and CIHR and you can apply to any of them depending on the type of research...however, I thought I heard that as an international student you are unable to apply for the master's award (17,500 CAD$) but I could be wrong!! I would just suggest looking into funding opportunities/tuition as it may be more expensive but I am not sure how it compares to the US! All the best!

Fall 2019 Clinical Psychology Canadian Applicants!

I was told as well that you don't have to specifically do what you stated on your proposal! I think they look at it more to judge the quality of your writing and critical thinking skills, but I could be wrong! It wouldn't make sense to me if you had to do what it said in the proposal because if you are applying to three different schools, the research may be quite different at the three different schools (which was my case). -

Does anyone know if I got an offer for CGS to one school and plan on accepting it, if there is way to let other schools know if you are an alternate that you won't be needing it? -

Clinical psych right out of undergrad?
NorthernBlondie replied to therapisttobe's topic in Psychology Forum
We have similar stats and I too am a fourth-year undergrad and have been offered admission into a Canadian Clinical Neuropsychology Ma/PhD program! My gpa is 4.11/4.33 and GRE was 157 Q, 161 V and 4.5 AW. I too have pretty extensive research and volunteer experience. As for "clinical" experience, I work as a behaviour interventionist for children with autism -
