Agree - I haven't heard anything either. Part of me doesn't even want to hear anything, since I can only suspect the worst. The stress is nauseating, yaaay!

It's quiet so far. I've applied to MSU, Minnesota, Purdue, Rice, USF, and Calgary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joegeo Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 If it helps (It does not help my anxiety) but I am pretty sure at least Rice will make contact this week given last year. USF/Georgia Tech might as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmiller32 Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Is there someplace where you can see how many applied? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, sometimes the program itself tells you the number of previous years if you look at their website. I believe Rice mentions roughly 140 applications for 10 spots (I am not sure if this is just I/O specifically or all psychology fields). USF I think is 130 for 4-5 spots. Colorado State has a similar ratio. Edited January 20, 2019 by Joegeo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crovanika Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Anyone else applied to Clemson? I imagine the letters for that one will be a lot later, but I really like the look of the program and faculty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joegeo Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 From what I recall Clemson made the first contact to people in February ish. I expect Rice to send emails tomorrow or Tuesday which will make some rough days haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OddIsEven Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Honestly all this waiting has made me wish that I would have applied to more programs. But alas, I couldn't afford it. Also my situation with LSU ended up being rather odd. I interviewed and was told that I was one of the top applicants, but that it came down to a difference in fit and that I wouldn't be interviewed unless people started to drop... which sucks since I was in contact with my POI for 6 months and some change. Sure hope I hear something ~good~ this week. Applied: Bowling Green, CSU, LSU, Clemson, UCF, Houston, UGA, Auburn, Florida Tech Accepted Waitlisted Rejected Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaybeMaybe2020 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 For anyone who applied to Purdue, I had a Skype interview with them in early December. I didn't make the interview weekend but know that it was last weekend. Sorry for anyone that still had their hope up about them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are going to have such a big mistake, they almost HAVE to admit you to the program haha. However, sending you some positive thoughts and hope you get some good news this week.

One hour thinking you made it the next it got ripped away. You'd think a field that prides itself on developing effective selection systems would practice what they preach. One thing I learned from the process: a lot of programs aren't the most organized. Only one program I visited asked for feedback regarding the process- it's sad in a way.
