Psychologystudent2021 Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Simon Fraser sent out rejections today, unfortunately I was one of them. Came out as a mass email. But that’s okay!

carlrogersfan98 Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 (edited) Anyone from Ryerson heard from CM lol?

spicemelange Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Anyone know what's going on with SFU? A bunch of people posted their rejections today, but I didn't receive an email? Not sure what this means because I didn't get an invite to interview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way invitations/acceptances he said will be around mid - February.

I actually received an email from Mac this past Monday that told me they were unable to view my Transcript for some reason. I resent it this past Tuesday (19th) and it now says "Complete". Likely, they just haven't reviewed yours yet since they are only just realizing they couldn't open mine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drew James Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Anyone heard from Calgary regarding open house invites? According to the results page, formal invites went out, but I think they may have come from the POI (instead of the program). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pancake019 Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 I know this is the clinical forum, I figured some people may have applied so I was wondering if anyone has heard back from either Carleton MA Psych or McMaster Psychotherapy programs?

clinical coffee Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 I have a couple of quick questions about the application season: how long after applications to URegina and LakeheadU do we receive news about their decisions or potential interviews? how long after the UofT formal interview do we find out about their decisions?

I think my ideal supervisor is at one school, but my ideal program is at another. How would you decide!!! This is a very valid conflict! One of the things that might work is making a pros and cons list for the two schools. This is what I did last year (but with three schools) because I had two offers on the table, but I hadn’t yet heard back from one more program, which was also high on my list due to the specific specialization. I needed to decide if I should accept an offer already on the table, or wait to see if I got an offer to the third school I was waiting to hear back from. Ultimately, by making a pros/cons list for the schools, I realized the best fit for me was a school I already had an offer for. I’m not sure if making a pros/cons list is suitable for everyone, but I can say it definitely helped me sus out some uncertainties and evaluate what was most important to me. It also helped me consider some things I hadn’t yet thought much about. Rejecting a program offer and accepting another can be a scary thing! The decision has a lot of power to change the course of your life. cpsych2021, carlrogersfan98, Mickey26 and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psych011011 Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 I'm really curious, does anyone have any thoughts on how important the following factors are and what you should consider in choosing programs to apply to or attend? - Location - 6 vs 7 year programs (and how programs are split up - e.g., 2 year MA + 4 year PhD, 1 year MA + 5 year PhD, etc.) - Overall workload/intensity of the program (does this really differ between schools or are they all roughly the same? If it differs, which schools have heavier or lighter workloads?) - Model (clinical scientist vs scientist practitioner) Hope to hear some of your opinions on these freudianslipintogradschool and cpsych2021 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm curious to read everyone's replies! I'm currently in my final year of undergrad and I'm applying to 2 programs. Unfortunately, location was really important for me because I am unable to relocate. I think that if I was able to move then Iocation probably wouldn't have been as important to me. Besides location, the model of the program (clinical scientist vs scientist practitioner) as well as supervisor fit were top on my list. Workload is something that I think about a lot too. I love research and I love academics, but I want to maintain a healthy work-life balance. I'm not sure if this is true, but I felt that there was no clear way to evaluate a programs workload. It seems like it may depend on the supervisor? psych011011 and T.O.hopeful 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carlrogersfan98 Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 (edited) For those of you where things aren't looking too hot this year in terms of admissions, when are you planning on inquiring about jobs? I was encouraged by a place I did an internship at to reach out for jobs in case grad school plans don't work out post-graduation (it's a rehab clinic and I did biofeedback and psychoed groups with the clients; if I returned I'd be working as a psychometrist), however I've been getting LinkedIn notifications for jobs and I've found some other really good positions that I qualify for. I was planning on beginning to actually send inquiries in about mid-March or so... is that still too early? I just don't want to be lounging about unemployed for too long after graduation, I fear I'll slip into post-grad depression if I do haha.

I'm expecting that next week or the week after initial notifications will go out judging from previous years. It's probably just backlog from more applications this year? It seems like there are a few people on this forum who applied to Windsor (myself included) so I wouldn't start worrying about it yet. pyschluver 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
