    Is it strange/rude to ask your supervisor for a paid RA position for the summer if you’re an incoming graduate student (with that supervisor)? Like if you and the supervisor agreed to get started on research prior to graduate school officially starting.

    Likewise DM for POI.

    Anyone heard from Calgary regarding open house invites? According to the results page, formal invites went out, but I think they may have come from the POI (instead of the program).

    Thanks!

    For those of you who listed Dalhousie as one of their proposed institutions for the CGS-M, did you list the Psychology and Neuroscience for department and Science for Faculty? Thanks!

    Likewise. My biggest dread are the GREs if they come back for the 2022 cycle. I studied for them this year only to have them be cancelled and then waived. I do not want to study for them again.

    This is my first time applying, but this whole process has been very stressful: the preparation, waiting, interviews, and waiting again. How do people do this year after year? That’s some tremendous resilience and persistence..

    Can any current clinical students at McMasters PM me? I have some questions regarding the program, if you wouldn't mind

    For Calgary, is anyone else seeing the 'Final Official Transcript' icon listed on their 'To-Do' List in their application portal? I had my institution send them the transcript via mail and email well before the application deadline, so I'm not sure why I'm seeing this. I've completed and awarded my degree before sending the transcript, so the checklist shouldn't be showing up as incomplete...

    Just got an interview with McMaster! (Jan 6) Contacted via email by POI

    I've had one 'formal' set of interviews at Dal: two structured one-on-one interviews with clinical program committee members and a casual interview with my prospective supervisors. Both were via zoom. I think the supervisors then rank their short-listed interviewees and confer with the clinical program committee to finalize offers.

    You sound like an incredibly competitive applicant! Best of luck

    Anyone else having a tough time with waiting to hear back from schools? It's basically all I think about
  14. Drew James
    Ah that’s rough. I agree, Dal’s system is very antiquated, and I’m sorry you’ve had some trouble. Please do let us know if you end up hearing back from Dal!
  15. Drew James
    Dal interviews will be held by the program on the 14th and 16th. I got an invite to interview only a few hours ago, so I would give them some time to contact you. Good luck!

    It's tricky. I try to find the relationship between cognitive processes that are heavily implicated in addictive behaviour, and propose an intervention to decrease these cognitive processes. The intervention is not clinical and more cognitive, and this is is all in a normal, healthy population. I feel like my proposal sits at the border of CIHR and NSERC. Applicable to both but not convincingly on either side. I guess it's better to be safe because going with CIHR bc any clinically-oriented projects are not eligible for the NSERC?
  17. Drew James
    Yeah, incoming Master's students are expected to make up a project and propose it, but they don't actually expect us to conduct our proposed research if we do get accepted/awarded. It's weird.
  18. Drew James
    The deadline for the CGS-M is Dec 1st (already passed today) unfortunately. Perhaps your supervisor is referring to a different CIHR funding application ?
  19. Drew James
    I haven't read anywhere that this is the case... but it'd be great if they did.
  20. Drew James
    Is anyone else unsure whether they chose the right funding federal agency for the CGS-M? My research could be considered NSERC (cognitive psych), but I chose CIHR because the research has clinical implications (e.g. addiction)... Ahhh
