+ve regard Posted January 26, 2021 Posted January 26, 2021 19 hours ago, T.O.hopeful said: I didn't think they did interviews because it's not mentioned on their website and the Results page for previous years only has people indicating acceptance/rejection but no interview notifications. However, someone posted on one of the earlier pages that they they do interviews sometime in February and then admissions/rejections go out in March. Considering getting accepted without an interview is odd, I'd say what the poster said makes sense! @psychgradapps2020 there aren't formal interview days for OISE CCP but expect the POIs to reach out to their top candidates for individual interviews. In the past this has happened before mid-Feb (as the committee meets in mid-Feb). @T.O.hopeful is right, a 6-7 year commitment to a student necessitates a meeting first Best of luck.

York is always late (I think I heard on January 30 last year), and since they received so many applications this year I wouldn't be surprised if they're even later. I know of one prof who is going to interview two potential grad students in the next two weeks. (I'm a current York student.) xtrahotlatte 1
T.O.hopeful Posted January 26, 2021 Posted January 26, 2021 Hi all, I did a clinical interview for Ryerson's program today. Since my POI is a psych science professor, I had to do two interviews. One with my POI 2 weeks ago and then today's interview with a clinical psych professor who is not a potential POI or supervisor. Very laid back, just asked why clinical psychology and why Ryerson. After that was just me asking questions about the program. Can't guarantee every non-POI interview will go the same but if anyone may find themselves in a similar situation (i.e. having to do a clinical interview with non-POI), hope the above helps! psychgradapps2020, Wanderingmind, PsychGirl2 and 8 others 11
prospectivegradstudent21 Posted January 26, 2021 Posted January 26, 2021 (edited) is anybody else getting anxious and kinda sad i feel like im really not going to get any interviews let alone acceptances this year ive been checking my emails everyday to see whether an interview email or notif comes up but nothing. i know people said that its still kinda early considering that schools are still going through apps and stuff but idk!

MAMED Posted January 26, 2021 Posted January 26, 2021 (edited) ^ This is exactly how I feel ... I just want to encourage you, you are not alone and this year has been the hardest/ most competitive for everyone. Hopefully, we still get interviews. I have not heard from any school. Although, I applied to York, OISE, and Guelph only. Edited January 26, 2021 by mmaka012 psych51038, prospectivegradstudent21, psychsci and 3 others 5 1

If anyone has been contacted by York for a prelim, could you pm if you're comfortable?

clinical_psych Posted January 26, 2021 Posted January 26, 2021 Does anyone have any advice on preparing for an interview with a POI you are well-acquainted with? I’ve been part of my POI’s lab for a couple years now and don’t know how to prepare for the interview. We have already discussed a majority of the typical interview topics at length (research interests, career objectives, strengths, weaknesses, proposed thesis topics, etc.). Any advice or ideas on what interview questions to expect?
PsychResearchTDD Posted January 26, 2021 Posted January 26, 2021 For people who got interviews at McMaster, did any of you apply to MM?
