neuropsychic123 Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 GradCas just did the meanest thing to me and sent me an email saying "You've been selected" and it was the GradCas company asking me to do a survey.

I actually received one on Saturday two weeks ago so it is possible, but I think unlikely. I just know some of my programs haven't sent out results yet even though they said they would before break so now I'm just stuck. I received an email invite last Saturday and the POI followed up by phone last Sunday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

impicklerick Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Does anyone know when Eastern Kentucky (Clinical PsyD) sent out their interview invites and/or when the actual interviews were? I tried looking at last year's results page but found nothing about invites or interviews. TIA doingmybest 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clinicalpsych.2022 Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 The status of my application at University of North Texas went from "pending admissions review" to "at academic program" back to "pending admissions review".. Any idea of why this would happen? Should I contact them or just wait? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clinicalpsych1996 Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 For anyone that got invited to Temple’s interview day- have you heard back about whether you got the morning or afternoon interview session? I emailed back and sent my preferences, but haven’t heard anything since. rubberduck 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm wondering if someone can give me an idea on if I have ANY chance at all. Here are my credentials/stats: I'm applying to go straight out of undergraduate Undergraduate School: Umass Amherst GPA: 3.795 GRE: Verbal 164 (94 percentile) / Quant 159 (70 percentile) / Writing 5.0 (92 percentile) 1.5 years in Neurocognition and Perception Laboratory at UMass - worked extensively as RA on one project that was published but did not get authorship 1 additional year doing research for honors thesis that will hopefully be published with myself as first author 2 years as paraprofessional for kids with autism 4 strong letters of recommendation - 1 from thesis director, 1 from professor that I TA'd for, 2 from supervisors as a Paraprofessional (some only allow 3 letters though) Strong (I think) personal statements with very strong interest in specific professors research (but no DIRECT experience in those fields - my research was in auditory and language perception while I want to work with emotion regulation as it relates to psychopathology and autism) Schools I'm applying to in order of preference based on specific PI's research: Yale with J.J. as PI UMass Boston with A.E. as PI UMass Amherst with A.G. as PI Boston University with S.H. as PI University of Connecticut with M.B. as PI Harvard with K.M. as PI Clark University with W.G. as PI I'm almost done with all my applications but should I have EXTREMELY low expectations in terms of interview and offers based on my credentials? Thanks! Ahhh we have very similar schools - and same PI at Harvard! We should probably, like, network ;) My stats: Graduated undergrad in 2016 (3.9 GPA overall, 4.0 psych) GRE - 167V, 161Q, 5AW Undergraduate research (mostly independent and kind of useless), then worked in a lab at Harvard Medical School to gain research experience with stress/PTSD population. Went to the National Institute of Mental Health as a Post-Bacc IRTA (anyone else do this?) and got a lot of great experience there. One first-author publication to a mid-tier journal, two additional first-author manuscripts underway, and a few authorships on other papers. All sounds great in theory, but none were completed before my applications except the first. Tons of clinical experience - currently still work in a clinical care job. Letters of rec from the Harvard PI I worked with, the PI of my lab at the NIH, professor who had me in undergrad, the director of the psychology department from undergrad, and the director of my current clinical job. I think strong personal statement, although I'm having that classic panic since there's nothing I can do to change it... I think it was interesting but I wish I had focused more on future research rather than current experience! My whole paper was basically why I should go to graduate school, with barely a paragraph on what I'll do once there. Thoughts? Anyway I'm trying to have high hopes so please don't completely destroy them, but I am also interested in what could be done differently next round if need be!

xxxxxxxxxx Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Hi everyone, 1st year clinical (Ph.D.) student here. I remember being in your place around this time last year (and several years before that), and found myself reminiscing how awful all those feelings were during “application” season. The uncertainty, checking my emails at all hours of the day, comparing my stats; background/experiences to other equally competitive applicants, refreshing the stupid forums and invites pages at every minute- ALL of it. It took me 3 application rounds to finally be accepted, at my “dream” institution, with a PI who I “dreamed” of working with (For reference: I was rejected from this school during previous application rounds). All of this to say: This process isn’t easy. It’s unfair, it isn’t for the weak. However, the field is slowly changing, especially for applicants from less privileged backgrounds. Clinical Psychology has a lot of room for growth (and revamping this difficult, confusing, and oftentimes unfair application process should be a goal for the CUDCP). Regardless of the outcome this application season: Please do not give up. If this is what you want to do for the rest of your life, you will get in. Do not let a lack of interview invite or rejection from a program define your self-worth/potential. Remember to practice self-kindness, and understand that there are a lot (unfair) factors at play that are out of your control as an applicant. I’m happy to chat and give words of encouragement for those who need it. I met some awesome folks this past Spring during my interview process (and on here!) and I am forever grateful for that. I’m thinking of you all during this difficult time and process. — a seasoned applicant who went through this BS misery, multiple rounds.

justacigar Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 I've already asked this, so sorry to be redundant, but has anyone heard back from University of Oregon for clinical psych? I haven't seen anything on the results page for clinical and they are usually one of the first to send out invites. Sort of assuming rejection from them...for the second time ?
