Hey I also applied to University of Oregon. Who are your POIs? Mine are Saucier and Hodges. What are your research interests?

Hey so has anyone here in the social department heard anything back yet about their apps? The clinical and developmental people in the other forums are starting to make me so nervous ?.

Social tends to be the last. Seems to be clinical, developmental, cognitive then social hahaha I might be wrong though.

On a related note, toronto, texas, northeastern and DU have begun the review process. Got an email from DU and NEU not the other 2

Got an email from a POI that I reached out to at a post-bacc program (as a backup.. I haven't applied yet) that said, "you are building a strong CV, which is wonderful, but I’m not sure the extent to which you perceive yourself to be a strong fit with our faculty".

Ugh. Like I reached out BECAUSE I was interested..

Wish I applied to social, less anxiety and neuroticism on your threads compared to others haha;). There's a reason people say clinical psychologists have to be somewhat crazy to do what they do.

Hahah I found the best way to summon the clinical folk. The anxiety and neuroticism is definitely real with me but I'm just good at ignoring it.

edit: and booking plenty of therapy sessions over the next couple of months!

lol don't worry guys I'll be a lot more neurotic come January/February! Only calm at this point because applications haven't even gone under review yet ? Can't be rejected if they haven't looked yet!

This is such an odd reply that I wouldn’t even know how to interpret it.

Hi! I'm interested in diversity-related research  (intergroup relations, social cognition, bias, stereotypes, prejudice).

Applied to 9 schools (Stanford, UMich, Yale, Northwestern, UW, Purdue, PennState, NYU, Indiana-Bloomington) and planning to apply to one more (UVa) 

If anyone was wondering, Northwestern has started their preliminary interviews for social psych it seems! I was invited Monday and did the Skype call today. Apparently they'll meet in the next week or two to discuss who they'll invite to on-campus interviews. 

I found this thread while trying to figure out when other schools I've applied to start their interviews so if anyone's got a clue... :D

Congrats on the Skype interview! I also applied to work with Perry. You and I have very similar interests and many similar schools as well!
