clinicalpsych20192020 Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 Please ask people for their POIs here rather than the interview invite thread - posting there makes people think there is another invite which leads to lots of unnecessary panic! Thank you! SugarAndPsych, rainydaychai, xxxxxxxxxx and 1 other 2 2
psychclin Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 (edited) Great idea! If anyone happens along this thread and has been invited for interview with FIU or FSU, could you post their initials? Also, same for PennState or UMaryland-College Park, and UMASS-Amherst? lol Edited January 4, 2019 by psycash
secondtimecharm Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 Can the person who recently posted about an invite to UMSL message me their POI? Thanks!
SugarAndPsych Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 If anyone with an invite from Michigan State happens to see this, can you message me the POI? Thanks!!
PhD_Wannabe01 Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 1. Great idea to do this thread! 2. Can the person who got the interview at Nebraska - Lincoln please PM me their POI? 3. Good luck to everyone

philopsych Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 Not to be needy, but I have two schools to ask about. To the person who was rejected by Emory, was it a generic message or did your PI send a message to you? Regarding the recent University of Illinois post, which campus was it? If it's Chicago, what's your PI?

Doc2016 Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 Would love to know who PIs were for any UMDCP or UIC invites! Thanks!
huskypsych Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 I'm interested in hearing POIs for MSU and UNL. Feel free to DM me if you have questions about the places in my signature.
1|]010ls10o Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 (edited) What incentive do people have for browsing this thread over the original one? Poi requests were spammy but I’m not sure separating a thread will help that much. Anyone who is invited for an interview, who is willing to share their POI, is more likely to just post the initials publically rather than find each person who wants that info through this thread Edited January 4, 2019 by 21ny14 ASDadvocate and JoePianist 2

I think as a kind gesture, I (and hopefully others) will check this thread if I ever receive future invites. I personally know the agonizing/brutal pain of seeing invites pour through the damn TCG results page for a school you applied to and having your inbox dry as hell. I think it'll leave the invites page less clutter-y, but that's my opinion. People can just post their details on the other thread, and others can PM them directly about POIs if they are curious. This one may be more relevant to the stuff popping up on TGC results page.

There are people who quote others instead of DMing posters directly. And there’s a lot of (IMO) irrelevant useless posts as well. But if this thread picks up steam and the other post becomes more strictly about invites (which begs the question, why not post more info anonymously on the results page?), we have 5 areas to monitor. (General applicants, clin invites, clin applicants, this, and results). There’s little to no incentive for interviewees to browse or post on this specific thread. It may be a bad analogy but it’s like moving the soup kitchen to a different city. Why visit? Say I get invited to school A. Am I really expected to go through this thread to find who wants POI info about school A? Why would I use my time that way?

I agree with you about the irrelevant posts: "Has anyone heard from Schools a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l and m? Thanks!" ***EYE ROLL*** I'm so anxious and bored I'm checking the invites page + the clinical applicants page + the general psych applicants page (a disaster/black hole honestly) and occasionally the interview tips/other things that pop up. I don't know if this s$@t will solve the mess/monster that has been created... But hey, another thread to waste our time on, right LMAO? (Have you seen the amount of applicant-specific threads now? I can't) Edited January 4, 2019 by checkingmyemail I don't know my alphabet ok
higaisha Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 Different threads make things cleaner, if you REALLY wanna hunt down a certain school's decisions thats what the search function is for. The only incentive for this thread is to clean up the forum. The psychology people have turned this forum into a zoo now that admissions seasons has come and mods here don't do much of anything so its best up to the users (cough us) to enforce good forum etiquette.
Giovanni’s room Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 Can the most recent UNL and UMSL posters message me who the POI is?

Guest Clickingrefresh Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 Can any UNL posters (ones that I haven’t already contacted ?) please DM their POI! Thanks and congrats!

Temperance Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 As a caution to people seconding requests for PI information, it's confusing if you're quoting "Same here!"-type posts that don't include details about which school you're inquiring, so please make sure to add that to your post to make it clear. Thanks! Best of luck to us all. spookycat 1
psychapplicant500 Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 Can those that received an interview invite from UIC please DM me PI info? Congrats and thank you!
