Recovering from multiple rejections and preparing for Fall 2021 :|
Psyched Coffee Bean replied to Rerun's question in Questions and Answers
Hey chin up, your CV looks (intimidatingly) impressive! This is my first year applying and I dont have anything secured so Im by no means an expert. I can say that I have learned alot from this experience and this is what I will do different next round. Reach out to potential POIs months before the applications even open to start a dialogue. Work to bring up GRE You have publications and research experience already (but if not these are key) Make sure the fit is really strong research wise (like what the potential POIs future research directions are) Diversify the schools you apply to (greater number and locations) This is a learning experience and some people apply 3+ years in a row. But eventually you will end up where you were meant to be. Best wishes fellow doctoral traveler, and may the odds be ever in our favor- 11 replies

Fall 2020 Clinical & Counseling PhD/PsyD
Psyched Coffee Bean replied to dancedementia's topic in Psychology Forum
First off CONGRATULATIONS? that is an amazing blessing! If it is an official acceptance that you are certain you want to accept (duh 1st choice lol), I would recommend (if its not too much economical strain) going to one additional interview just to potentially have room for negotiations (request higher stipend, or secure RA Line, etc). In the interest of your time and the schools (and all other anxiously hopeful applicants) I would let the other programs know you have made a decision so that they can extend the opportunity to someone else. Again congrats you earned this! ?? -

If the dinner is immediately after a full interview day, most people show up in the same clothes (minus blazer/tie). If the dinner is an informal event before/following the interview day then business casual (Jean's & dress top) have been my go to. Best of luck on your interview, you got this! -

Thank you both for both posting the question and your honest reply! This is my first cycle and the process is so ambiguous that it helps to have the sage words gathered from everyone's experience. Would you recommend reaching out to the programs, will they tell you if invites have already been sent out (aka you're rejected)? Thanks *cries internally -

I didn't ask if they were done, but my POI at UIUC told me that all faculty had to agree, and once they did they would all be sending out invites (on 1/10) Thanks for the information! I havent seen many people posting too many UIUC results yet so I hope that means some indecision for them and hope for us -

Just finished my (preliminary) phone interview with SUNY buffalo (still anxious), but wanted to share some news...because this thread is life for me right now and I appreciate everyone who contributes. they are finalizing their shortlist for the interviews over the next 7-10 days (meaning they are still reviewing apps and reaching out to people) Invitations should be sent out 12/29 for the interview date of Jan 24 Hopes high gang
