Thanks for sharing! I also applied to UGA, and apparently the admission have not started to review my application yet... My potential PI is SA, and I initiated the conversation with SA (inofficial interview I guess?) in Nov... I hope he still remembers me.?

I got a formal interview invite for UGA for 1/22 from my PI ML on 12/29. Seems like it’s up to the professors instead of a mass invite so don’t worry too much!! 

Great point to bring up! I reached out to a recent grad of the program who explained that the APA recently adjusted its accredidation criteria. Berkeley updated its curriculum accordingly last semester so that it mandated final exams for each class (rather than a final paper as it did for some courses). The grad is currently in an APA internship and told me that matching into one was no issue for him. Another comforting note he mentioned is that the department chair is the new APA president haha
