Sagesaga Posted January 7, 2019 Posted January 7, 2019 It seems UWaterloo has started preliminary interviews. To the one who posted on the results section, could you please DM me your POI? Thanks
Psychology_101_ Posted January 7, 2019 Posted January 7, 2019 Hi all!!! Just wondering if anyone who applied to Ryerson or Western has heard back yet?? Good luck to everyone!

Last year I was given a waitlist offer and ultimately was not accepted, but was invited for a Skype interview VERY early in January (although different POI than this year) Neurophilic 1
higaisha Posted January 7, 2019 Posted January 7, 2019 Also waiting on Ryerson. Western sends out interview invites late Jan (according to the site).

Haha. My POI did say she’d review apps in December so maybe it’s a no for me. Who knows.
Clinpsyc01 Posted January 7, 2019 Posted January 7, 2019 Ryerson varies a lot depending on POI. My understanding is that they don’t submit their choices for the in-person interview until ~3rd week of January, and you could be contacted anytime until then. canadianpsych and Neurophilic 2

ventiamericano Posted January 7, 2019 Posted January 7, 2019 Hey guys - just a question about POIs. For those of you who were invited for an interview, did you find that the people who invited you were the ones who e-mailed you back when you reached out early in the year? I applied to 5 POIs in 5 different schools and found that only 3/5 of actually e-mailed me back. Not sure if that means that I've "lost a chance" with the other 2 or that they weren't interested.
higaisha Posted January 7, 2019 Posted January 7, 2019 Speak of the devil (in a good way ofc). School: Ryerson University Type: MA/PhD Clinical Psychology Date of Invite: Jan 7th, 2018 Type of invite: Email from POI for Skype/phone interview Interview date(s): The week of 1/7/19 POI: PM me Mickey26, chopper.wife, lobstergirl and 4 others 5 2

I have not found this to be the case myself. I was invited to a prelim interview at Waterloo and the POI there never emailed me back when I originally reached out to them. I've asked a lot of people about this and everyone says it is not a big deal and they often are just bombarded with emails/not great at getting back to every single one! lobstergirl and chopper.wife 1 1

Its likely a POI thing and not a "you" thing, but a favourable response is always nice :). On the other end, there were people I never contacted but got an invite from anyway, so it doesn't matter too much in the broader scheme of things.

Sephix Posted January 7, 2019 Posted January 7, 2019 (edited) Being an applicant last year, this process is horrendous so if anyone has any questions about the Western schools, please don't hesitate to ask as I am a current clinical student and could provide some insight I did my ugrad at SFU so do PM your POI and I can provide some insight but I also know the UBC and UVic profs as well Edited January 7, 2019 by Sephix
Sephix Posted January 7, 2019 Posted January 7, 2019 (edited) I also wanted to add that SFU in particular usually does their interview last Friday in January however given they lost a week due to the late start (Thurs Jan 3), you guys will find out this week by the 11th, 18th absolute latest as to if you got an interview. With this logic, interviews will be Feb 1st and NOT Jan 25th. I hope this helps...I hear there is a new grad advisor now so that's why timings also been off Edited January 7, 2019 by Sephix chopper.wife 1
Mickey26 Posted January 7, 2019 Posted January 7, 2019 Head's up for those applying to UCalgary. POIs must submit ranked applicants by Tues afternoon. Top applicants are invited to Open House Feb 8-9, and offers of admission will follow shortly chopper.wife and Neurophilic 1 1
