AlexandraF Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 did anyone hear back from the person who got the stony brook intervuew? Thats really fast. If you did hear from them can you pm the initial to me? ty also why might some schools reject now and others in feb? Like people off the bat that they know are not a fit? I didnt hear back yet from a school with an 11/29 deadline but I do see in other years some people got rejections today (interview invites for this school anytime from 7-30 of dec with a lot concentrated around now) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congrats on all your interviews! Would you mind PM your POI at Notre Dame? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1996kayden Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 6 hours ago, StatsAddict said: Hello all! I'm new here-- applying mostly to developmental programs. I applied to University of Minnesota’s Child Psychology program, Developmental Science Track; wondering if anyone has heard anything from this program? They only have info on the accepted students weekend on their website— but they don’t say anything about interviewing. Also applied to Georgetown’s PhD in Psychology, concentration in human development: anyone hear anything from them? Any info would be most welcome! I thought I’d also share my current interview updates, in case anyone's looking for info on interview dates for these programs: I have interviews for the developmental programs at Missouri (Jan 25), UT Dallas (Jan 31-Feb 1), GMU (Feb 15), ASU (preliminary phone interview), and Notre Dame. UMN Psych and ICD programs don't interview, they direct admit. If you're accepted you're invited to accepted students weekend to see if you like the school. socpsy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ItsExistential Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Can those who received interviews for UCSB share which concentration they applied to? I know that developmental went out, and saw a few counseling, but haven't seen anyone with a clinical concentration..here's hoping they aren't out yet!

Waitlistedbuthopeful Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 This might have been brought up at some point in the previous 47 pages so forgive any redundancy, but is it a bad idea to immediately accept the first interview invitation you receive? I just received an invite this morning and am hoping if I'm ~lucky~, I might get another later today as programs push to review before the holidays. I'm wondering if it is fine to wait until the end of the day or tomorrow morning to accept the first invite, or if this would be viewed as lack of enthusiasm? I'm equally interested in all 6 programs I applied to, and I just want to see if any others send out notifications today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know why you wouldn’t accept an interview if you want to go to the school it’s not an admittance. You aren’t locked out of other interviews because you accepted one. And if you accept now, you will know your schedule for the next interview option. You should definitely interview everywhere you want to go so that they can decide if you’re a right fit and vice versus.

Was wondering if others at least thank them for the opportunity and will confirm soon (to still show interest and gratitude); or if it is better to just not say anything yet until you either hear from the other school you know has the same interview date or don't. 1|]010ls10o 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right, but the original poster said they were equally interested in each program. If you have one you want more, then wait. I would just not respond in that case. No one is going to check their responses until after Christmas probably anyway. But if you’re equally interested and it’s easy for you to go, I would take the interview and let the others work around your schedule, then you don’t look bad to anyone, because you’re just already booked. You don’t need to reschedule and look bad. If they want to interview you, I’m sure they expect that others do too, and are aware that their weekends overlap with others.

I just found out I am going to receive an invitation to interview on a date that I believe will end up being the same as an interview I already accepted. I think the best solution in this case is to thank the second program and ask about alternatives and be up front about the situation. If they say there are no alternatives, I would consider asking the first program if they offer any alternatives. In the end, if no one budges, I'll go to the school that asked first.
