Hey! Sorry I didn't see this sooner...I haven't been on here in a while. I think I've got housing pretty figured out now, just need to actually sign a lease. I'm so glad they finally sent us our welcome letters with everyone's contact info!

I noticed that they separate them for some programs, but they don't for my program! It probably depends on how the program reported the data or something. How annoying. I like just looking at the one that lists clinical psych programs by publications and citations, because my program's listed pretty high on that one, haha .

This! I was only accepted to one Ph.D. program, and even though it's a good program and I loved it when I visited, I can't seem to get over the fact that it's not "elite." Whenever people say things like, "I got three offers from top schools," I can't help being jealous. My program is ranked #79 on U.S. News, and around #100 on the NRC rankings (but I hate how NRC combines clinical and experimental, because I think the clinical program at my school is better than the experimental program). I know I should be feeling lucky to even have gotten into a fully funded clinical psych ph.d. program, I just wish I could get over these stupid rankings!!!

Hey, anyone else heading to Ohio University this fall? I'll be in the Clinical Psychology Ph.D. program. Anyone have any ideas about where they're going to live yet?
