Clinicalpsyc12 Posted January 17, 2019 Posted January 17, 2019 can the person who received view to Concordia PM their POI please?
reindeerland Posted January 17, 2019 Posted January 17, 2019 Does anyone have experience with full-day interviews that they’d be willing to share? NorthernBlondie 1

Those are the only clinical programs I've applied to this year because of last year was too draining with a bunch of apps, so I'm pretty pleased with this!! Has anyone heard anything from Queen's post-interview? I interviewed super early January and am getting anxious with the silence. I haven't heard anything since the interview as well, but my PI indicated that they are required to submit a list to the department of invites to the open house by Jan 20th. He also said that this list can involve offers/waitlists.

Has anyone heard anything from Queen's post-interview? I interviewed super early January and am getting anxious with the silence. From what I know, most PI's have interviewed their prelim shortlist and have started to narrow it down. The PI I applied to told me that she was going to e-mail her short-short list sometime this week and from what I've heard, has already made rejections. My guess is that you'll hear back in the next week or so! The open house isn't until March 1st, but I think most PIs in the department know who they want already (is what has been implied). Edited January 17, 2019 by ventiamericano Realized I kinda doxxed myself in the first post - oops!
chopper.wife Posted January 17, 2019 Posted January 17, 2019 Ok so I think I need to find a way to block gradcafe from my browser for like a day... I swear when this whole process is over I will STILL be checking every 30 minutes out of habit. Because, you know, knowing about one of the schools I applied to contacting applicants RIGHT NOW is so much more important than getting shit done in my day ? gillis_55, hopeful_psych, ventiamericano and 1 other 4

I understand that some of the applicants are still under review/ on waitlist, but I doubt that most are still under consideration. Put me out of my misery sooner rather than later lol I have gotten an interview at Uvic! Psych_101 and SoundofSilence 2

Psychology_101_ Posted January 17, 2019 Posted January 17, 2019 (edited) Hi everyone!! Is anyone here familiar with the Western shortlist/interview process? My POI emailed me today saying they have forwarded my application to the clinical psych committee who will be reviewing files for the 'very short list". I was under the assumption that the decision-making process usually involved POIs deciding who to invite to interview day and afterwards giving their recommendations to the committee. I'm curious as to why the committee would be reviewing files prior to the interview invites even being sent out? Do they get the final say on who comes to interview day? Any insights would be greatly appreciated! Edited January 17, 2019 by Psychology_101_

I had three set up: -one with POI -one with POI's grad students -one with 2 other clinical faculty Was this the same as you? I got a formal invite from grad secretary.
NorthernBlondie Posted January 17, 2019 Posted January 17, 2019 Has anyone applied to UofA school and clinical child psych and heard anything?

Sounds like I didn't make the cut unfortunately. Disappointing, but this is all part of the process Good luck with your application, I hope you get an offer!

Any insights would be greatly appreciated! I believe the clinical committee at Western is pretty involved in admissions and make most decisions as a group, so it wouldn’t surprise me if the committee reviews the selected candidates prior to sending the invites. They don’t tend to interview many people, so maybe they want to be sure that everyone is a good candidate, meets admissions criteria, etc,

Piagets#1Fan Posted January 18, 2019 Posted January 18, 2019 Did anyone here apply to uOttawa? I applied to the French Stream but haven't heard anything and haven't seen anything in the forums about it.

I applied to the French Stream but haven't heard anything and haven't seen anything in the forums about it. I applied to uOttawa as well, and haven’t heard anything yet. When I emailed my POI before applying she mentioned that initial invites aren’t sent out until late January/early February or even later sometimes because of how the “uOttawa timeline” is. I assume uOttawa is just a bit later in general so I wouldnt be too worried! Piagets#1Fan and gillis_55 2
