anyone hear from NYU yet?
-
Same here haha. I'm a big fan of daily planners- I like the Blue sky planners but when I find the daily ones! I only use the monthly for big events/deadlines and daily to plan my days, and a whole page per day rather than a weekly where a few days are on one page.

yep, I think so. RIP

Anyone here still waiting on William and Mary? I'm told they're still making decisions but I'm not sure what the situation is
-
@haleyb12 waiting on NYU here too! Definitely feel like I'm losing my mind- this wait is brutal!

@freudleavemymumoutofit playing the waiting game here for some programs too! Didn't apply to that program, but definitely playing the waiting game!
-
@wisworthNevermind I see you said about two weeks ago! Ugh this is brutal
-
@wisworthSorry to hear that. So they made offers already? Weird to hear since no one has posted acceptances on the results page, maybe they're just not on here. My PI told me they are still in the process of making decisions...this is killing me! When did you interview?
-
Hi guys,
In an interview, when a professor is telling you about their work and barely ask questions, is that typically a bad or good sign? There was encouragement to reach out to students to ask about moving there, but I'm reading into how short the interview was (15-20 minutes) I guess every other experience I've had was more like being interrogated and asked to justify your life haha. I guess it could be a great sign where they just wanted to make sure I was interested and the interview was a formality? Or bad because there wasn't a lot of questions. What has your experience been with interviews like that?

Hey @neuropsychic123, have you heard anything from W+M?

Hey all,
Was curious to hear of your all's thoughts about this department and school. From what I know it is a highly regarded department, but I am feeling a bit confused as I have limited advice and contact with advisors due to COVID. Any insight and thoughts are welcome!
-
I was recently offered admission to this program, too. My offer was a bit weird as well, it wasn't clear who it was from and seemed to be written with multiple people. I never had any contact with POI either prior to admission.

@NothalfgoodThank you so much for responding! I am interested in delving fully into academia, hoping to pursue a research based PhD in Clinical Psychology and eventually work towards becoming a researcher/professor. I am not interested in pursuing clinical work, but instead interested in obtaining research experience and staying in academia for my career. I should also add that the unfunded masters program has a funded PhD program at the school that is highly regarded in my field, and a lot of masters students seem to end up there after their degree. Everything is a perfect fit research wise and program wise for the unfunded program, but I don't know if I'd be a complete idiot for turning down a fully funded program with a stipend in exchange for student debt.
-
The first program is unfunded and would be about 18,000 per year.
-
For a masters program- if you had one program that was a perfect research fit, ideal environment and location versus another program that was an okay research fit, not ideal location/environment, but was fully funded + stipend. I'm having a hard time, because my heart says the first school, but my head says it might be more practical to choose the second. Help!

@Phoenix88 I'm glad that you'll soon be moving into a stage where you can focus more on your research over the classes. Yeah, it sounds like we definitely have some of the same feelings! No fun. It's so hard worrying that you might behind where your classmates are or where your professors expect you to be. But hey, I guess we're all winging it at some point...
-
Hey guys,
As I'm sure a lot of you are in similar positions, I thought this would be helpful! I recently was admitted into a truly great program, and the excitement has slowly turned into crippling anxiety. Lots of "They're going to figure out I'm not as smart as they think I am" "Everyone else is so much better, I will fail"...etc. I know this is so common with all people and especially in academia! Anyone relating to that right now? Because I am feeling it hard?

Hey guys! I was just recently accepted to a masters program among my top choices. I am still waiting to hear back from other programs. This program said I have until March 15th to either accept or decline. I'm freaking out a bit now, because I don't know if I'm even going to hear from my other schools by that point. I thought the commit date for graduate school was April 15th. What should I do? I'm worried about asking for more time preemptively in fear of sounding like I'm not grateful or seriously considering the acceptance. Any and all advice is appreciated!
