I'm glad to see there are more people out there! I seem to always have to explain what school psychology is whenever I am asked about future goals and career aspirations, even by those in the field of psychology (my undergrad university does not have an educational/school psych program so most faculty here are unfamiliar). I have also heard back about a couple of interviews in January, which I think to me will be the most stressful part! I'm assuming reading up on each school/program/faculty is a must before interviewing; does anyone have any other tips?

I just thought I'd check to see if there are any other aspiring school psychologists out there who are applying for next year! There was a last year, but so far nothing has surfaced for this cycle... so maybe I'm alone? My major goal is to be certified to able to work in schools, so I am applying to a mix of PhD and MA/EdS programs since they both will allow that. Of course, some of my application deadlines aren't even until mid-February, so it's probably a bit premature to worry, but I am getting anxious to just finally know where I will be in August! Anyway, anybody else?
