I can’t believe people are getting rejections already. It seems way too early ?

Hey all,

I had a question and wanted to see your thoughts. University of Florida sent out a mass rejection today for their clinical psychology doctoral program. I did not receive an email; however, it looks like a lot of interview invites have went out as well. I haven't heard anything either way, but I do know that my application is complete since I received verification of that at the time of submitting it. 
Let me know your opinions please! Thanks guys!

This happened to me last year. Sometimes it means that you're on a waitlist. You might not be in the pile for interviews but you could be in the pile for if they need to hold a second round of interviews

It's been 3 days since U of Miami's supposed interview extension date, should I assume I got rejected (haven't seen a lot of U of Miami interview invites on the results page though)?

Hi everyone, quick question here. I'm first author on a manuscript which was just accepted for publication as of today. What's the best way to notify grad programs I've applied to that this manuscript has now been accepted?

Im on the same boat. I haven’t heard about UM. Someone got an Informal interview for clinical health, but have heard nothing for clinical adult nor child.

Congrats! That's so exciting  Do you mind saying if it was a mass email from Oklahoma State University or an individually sent email? Wondering whether to scratch it off my list or not lol

I'm not an authority on the topic but my gut says don't. This is a great thing to bring up in interviews when you've updated your CV but for now, it'll probably just get lost in the shuffle if you aren't already actively talking to a PI about a scheduled interview. I don't think there's such a huge difference between accepted vs "under review" that would totally change the game for a PI making decisions

Anyone hear from Harvard or Berkeley clinical science??? Haven't heard a word on even when to expect interview invites

[KeepItCaffeinated]

Anyone know if UT Austin sent out all of their invites?

[shutupsigmundfreud]

Is anyone expecting to hear anything from Stony Brook today? CUDCP timeline says their interview notification deadline is tomorrow (but idk if that's true because it's a saturday?), and their official interviews start on the 4th. Seems so soon!

I've gotten interview invites on a weekend before, so I'll be holding out until Sunday before crossing out SBU on my list.

For Drexel University, I graduated from their master's program last year. A friend of mine who is heavily involved in the admissions process says that they won't send out invites until after the holidays.

Hey! Looks to individual emails. Keep your head high and cross your fingers!

I had a pre-interview with a PI at Stony Brook yesterday and he said he will be making decisions by the end of this week and interviews will go out (for him) this weekend or early next week.

Email from University of Denver: 

Dear Applicants to the Clinical Child PhD program at the University of Denver,

We are delighted to learn that you applied to our program. We wanted to let you know about the procedures and dates for our admissions process this year.

We are currently reviewing applications and expect that this process will continue through mid-January. Some, but not all, faculty who are interested in accepting a clinical child doctoral student will be holding phone or video interviews with prospective candidates prior to deciding on final interview invitations.  This means that you may or may not hear from a faculty mentor about a preliminary interview. (Some faculty prefer this step in their selection process, whereas others do not.)

The faculty conducting preliminary interviews will be doing this in late December or early January.  If you do hear that you are invited to do a preliminary interview, please respond as soon as possible because these need to be conducted within a tight timeframe. If you do not hear about a preliminary interview, this does not necessarily mean you are not being considered for a final interview.

Our interviews will be virtual this year and will take place on Friday, February 19th and Monday, February 22nd.  
If you are invited for an interview, you will be notified by the end of January at the latest so you can plan accordingly.  You do not need to contact us to inquire about the status of your application, as the Graduate Program Administrator will try to inform those who are not invited as soon as this is known.
