A.Borealis

I just got an email from my POI at SLU, I'm in the 'hold' category. They have already notified people who have current offers.

There is definitely still hope. I had a weak overall GPA. However, just about every other aspect of my application was fairly strong to compensate: High GRE scores, strong LOR's, substantial research experience, poster presentations, and 4.0 psych GPA. I also second the Asher book. My personal statements would have not been as convincing without it. Despite my low GPA I have been accepted at two fully, funded PhD programs so far. Best of luck!

I've applied to: Saint Louis Univ. (interview) Old Dominion Univ. (assumed rejection) Wright State Univ. (accepted) Ohio Univ. (??) Central Mich. Univ. (accepted) Those of you who have been to an interview/visitation day, was it more casual or formal? I'm going to WSU and CMU visitation days soon and I'm not sure what to expect. I may also visit SLU soon.
