Wishing everyone all the luck in the world, and hope you all get into programs!!! ❤️ Hey! I had an interview with a faculty member at UMass Amherst two weeks ago. The faculty member I met with informed me that the interview process would be going on for another 3 to 4 weeks before any final decisions are made and invites are sent out. She mentioned that there were a lot of interviews that she had to get through personally as well as many other faculty in the field. Hope this helps! socialpsychnerd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkeybug Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 has anyone heard anything from UCLA?? I saw that they sent out invites for clinical psych today, but their webpage says interviews for social area is earlier than clinical psych. I understand this year is difficult but the waiting and silence is so hard to deal with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GREBlaster9000 Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 Sharing a few updates from social psych programs: Rejected from Michigan this past Saturday. congrats / best of luck to those advancing in their interview process! Was told USC's open-house dates will be Feb 4 + Feb 5. I have not received official communication from USC's psych department, but did have a brief get-to-know-you Zoom with the professors who'd be my advisors last Friday. Not sure when official invites to interview days will come. Cornell sent out an email that they're still deliberating. Any updates on Princeton / Brown? Someone in GradCafe's results database posted that Princeton interviews went out pre-New Years but there's only the one post so not sure if that's reliable info. Same for Brown, though with four people reporting interviews, I'm more inclined to believe that their interviews have actually already happened.

Since I haven't got official email from USC yet, USC could still be deciding who to invite. Edited January 22, 2021 by brainbuster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stumbling_My_Way_Through Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 APA put out this graduate study report in 2018. If you look at the table, across all subfields, social psychology has the lowest rate of acceptances. I think remembering that we are in a competitive subfield in a year with an unprecedented # of applications is important to think about in case we feel the sting of rejection becoming personal. phdwannabequeen, north_runner, fingers_crossed54 and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
