They apparently don't do interviews but I find that hard to believe... I wonder if supervisors are doing informal interviews. Any insight would be helpful I had the chance to speak to a PhD student in the clinical program at Lakehead and from my understanding (and take this information as anecdotal), not all PIs there do interviews but some do. psych444 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you so much ❤️ I didn't get into the RCT stream it still showed under review but I had reached out to my POI and she is the one that said if I applied for the RCT you will automatically have an application for the experimental masters. I didn't have any interview for the masters program I just had couple meetings with my POI. I would definitely reach out to your POI! I know this process is so stressful but stay strong, I am hoping you get in, wishing you all the best!

SamiPsych Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 Hey everyone! Has anyone heard from the Neuropsych stream at uWindsor? I'm curious if offers have been accepted, the deadline for replies is April 15th. If you did accept or are waiting to, would you mind sharing the supervisor you got the offer for? Thank you! Any info would help put me at ease, good or bad. clinicalpolarbear 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skowall Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Congrats to everyone on their acceptances.

For those of you who applied more than once before getting accepted, how did you spend your time off? What are some things you would recommend? Let me know! If you got rejected this round, I advise (and I believe others would advise you to do the same; this is what I was told to do by a DCT) that you undertake a research position. That can be one or two volunteer positions or one full-time paid research position. The most important thing for these programs to see is that you've been doing research. The clinical aspect is also important but tends to be secondary. If you can do clinical research then even better - two birds with one stone. Another option is to do volunteer research and get a pain job in a clinical setting of sorts (with the respective population you want to work with as part of your degree would be ideal).

Thanks for the advice! I currently have 4 years of RA experience, 2 of which are clinically oriented and one publication. Not sure what else I'm missing in my application. I've also done clinical volunteering. If you have any other suggestions let me know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have any other suggestions let me know! The way I can describe this process to you is the same way every clinical MA and PhD student has described it to me thus far; it's a crapshoot. I mean it. Having those years of experience is great including the one publication, but you just have to keep doing more or less the same thing. Changing your application materials also can make a difference, such as reference letters, LOI, etc. DM me maybe and we can have a video chat to discuss at length? I could type an essay here and still not be done. SoundofSilence 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
