Prepare a list of your schools including the program youre applying, how theyre to send in their letter, due date, some info on the program and your POI. Also give them your cv and perhaps a writing sample to remind them of your work. Professors are used to writing many letters for one student. An organized packet full of all this info is the best way to go in my opinion. You could also write up the addresses on the envelopes for their letters if it needs to be sent by mail.

Omg I love this...exactly how I feel. Stealing this...XD

Since there isn't a psychology specific rejection thread, I thought it might be nice to have one. Well...rejection is never nice. Just a place to vent or seek comfort from others who are in the same position.

So far I've got one unofficial rejection, three have already sent invites out (one of which I had a really "great" phone interview with, so said my POI, but was told I unfortunately wasn't one of their invites). I guess there is still "hope" for all of us until those official ones roll in or March/April comes. Despite that I feel the hopelessness depression coming on and figured I can't be the only one.

Feb is gonna be a LONG month...
