Would you mind messaging me your POI too?:) I also applied to Buffalo and didn't hear anything. Curious about developments! Thanks:)

I also got an interview from Buffalo. I'll send you mine as well.

A little bird told me that both UCLA and UMass are wrapping up their unofficial interviews and will send out their invites to on-campus interviews by the end of this week!

I'm also curious about who you heard back from at UMass! Please let me know if you'd like to

If you didn't get an unofficial interview, is it unlikely to get an on-campus interview?

Just heard back from UCLA that I am not invited to their on-campus interview. Not entirely surprised but the preliminary chat was still super helpful!

I'd say so. I was told only 20-25 people got unofficial interviews and the group of final candidates that will be brought to LA was chosen from this pool.

Curious if anyone has heard from:

Stanford, Princeton, Washington, NYU, Yale, Northwestern, UWisc-Madison.

Thanks!

My sense is that NYU sent out all of their invites (at least for cognition & perception).

I applied to the social psych track at NYU and I'm freaking out right now, it was one of my safest bets (my LORs carried a lot of weight there). I hope they're still sending invites for the social program. If anyone got an interview for the NYU social program I'll appreciate if you could PMme POI initials.

It seems like all I see on the results page are Clinical and Counseling Psychology.. anybody else also noticed this and getting frustrated? I'm hoping this means there's fewer applicants applying to Social Psychology programs, or that Social programs extend most of their interview invites later rather than sooner!

I think even for social psych, the invitations will be most likely sent by the end of this week  according to previous years' record on GradCafe. Until now I hear nth though...

Could Missouri person PM me the POI initials? Thanks!!

Has anyone done unofficial interview with UCLA? If I am not getting any email from UCLA, does that mean I am not selected for the official interview? It seems like UCLA is popping up everywhere and I am bit confused..!

Same! I just saw on the acceptance tracker that someone got an email scheduling an on campus Ucla interview after a phone interview. I have yet to hear anything ?

I did an unofficial interview with UCLA and was told I won’t be invited to the official interview for research compatibility reasons. And yes, my understanding is that if you didn’t receive an unofficial interview, you likely would not be invited to the official interview.
