From what I've heard it doesn't matter tooo much as long as you meet the cut offs. But I do know some profs look at specific courses. For instance a prof I worked for really cared about research methods and stats grades and wouldn't consider anyone with less than an A in those courses. I think it's really dependent on each PI's own views of the process and what they look for in their students. I think as long as you meet the cutoffs you will at least be able to get your app into the hands of more people and potentially make the shortlist. With that said, if you dont meet the cut offs it might be worth doing some extra courses to boost GPA.

The next step would be the open house on feb 26! and I believe next time youre in touch will be about an offer or rejection etc

This confuses me a bit since York doesn’t do second round interviews, unless it’s different for CD. I know that for clinical it’s just one interview and then the PI decides.

That's a good question! I don't know if it matters per se one person I'm thinking of has a MEd. Tbh I think the most important thing would still be your research productivity and experience. I dont think the MA or MEd in counselling would hurt you as long as your application still provides evidence for your skills as a researcher

For me location + intensity of the program (since I want to go into academia I want a school and supervisor who encourages research productivity!) but with that said, I think worklife balance is SO important and discussing this with potential PIs is vital

Thanks for the advice!!! Super helpful

Yes I totally get this! The supervisors at the school where the program is better are still great. But one i feel like I might burn out whereas the second I feel is less productive/toward end of career. Which is why the supervisor at school B is the perfect fit but the school is just not checking off ALL my boxes. It’s still not bad it’s very good, just difficult to gauge what’s more important!
-
Courses, location is a bit closer, clinical orientation
-
Totally. so I guess this is where I’m struggling. I think my ideal supervisor is at one school, but my ideal program is at another. How would you decide!!!
-
This absolutely makes sense!!!
-
Great point!! Just added location to the above list!
