JKPsych Posted January 25, 2019 Posted January 25, 2019 (edited) Has anyone else heard nothing from any of their schools? I’m a first time applicant, applied to 9 schools, graduated from a top liberal arts school, 3.5 GPA, 158 Quant and Qual and 5AW, 4 years of experience and 3 posters and 1 publication. Wondering if this is pretty typical for a first time applicant! Edited January 25, 2019 by JKPsych anxiouscoffeedrinker and jlmk42 2

Wondering if this is pretty typical for a first time applicant! Given that schools have different timelines, its hard to predict. Its also difficult to determine how competitive you are as an applicant--fit with POI, funding, uni politics, what have you, all factor into grad school decisions. Its a long, arduous process that isn't over until it's over. There is a calendar with the interview weekends if that's any solace: https://teamup.com/ks952632ef38687f3e Keep your chin up! Good luck!
dancedementia Posted January 25, 2019 Posted January 25, 2019 Welp. No Suffolk news today. I actually took an afternoon nap and DREAMED that I got an email from my POI inviting me to interview. I woke up so ecstatic and then the reality dawned on me. Not a good moment and shows just how obsessed I am lol. xChrisx 1

Wondering if this is pretty typical for a first time applicant! My first time applying was pretty abysmal - I only ended up getting 1 interview offer. I actually don't recall the number of schools I applied to, but it was very small. I ended up getting rejected in the end. I feel I learned a lot from that cycle to try my best to correct the spots where my application was lacking (particularly in getting more relevant research and clinical experiences) and applied to more schools this time. But that was just my experience - don't panic! ? As another poster said, every school has different timelines. I'm still waiting on hearing from a majority of the schools I applied to, so I'm right there with you. ? xxxxxxxxxx 1
jlmk42 Posted January 26, 2019 Posted January 26, 2019 I posted this in another forum as well, but I just saw the poster question in results. I emailed Boston University and they let me know that all invites have been extended
dancedementia Posted January 28, 2019 Posted January 28, 2019 Oh good morning and happy Monday, Suffolk. Maybe today is the day? jlmk42 and Fi19 2

Waiting272 Posted January 29, 2019 Posted January 29, 2019 How likely is it to get off the waitlist for interview?? (Achem, Suffolk -- I'm looking at you!) ?

They're waiting to see if others decline the opportunity to interview. Given the crapshoot that application cycles are, I doubt anyone would say no to an interview unless they're REALLY strapped for cash or already got into their top choice. That said, Suffolk's interview is much later so maybe someone will change their mind between now and then. Good luck!! Waiting272 1

I was thinking that too, it's def probably unlikely ppl turn down interviews. But, I will hold onto hope for a little bit. Congrats and good luck at your interview there!
flamingo Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 To the poster on the results page inquiring about Eastern Illinois University, pm me. I can answer your questions!!
