jamescorden Posted December 16, 2021 Author Share Posted December 16, 2021 I'm getting antsy to hear back from Minnesota's program - their website says interviews & decisions typically occur in January, so I feel like it will be any day now! mtgunner, PavlovsFavorite_dog and amandab2022 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't heard back either, but I worry I might not be a super competitive applicant in general ? Would you mind sharing the initials of your POIs for those schools and Temple? If not it's no worries, just curious! UMass Boston sent out a general email that they will be sending out decisions regarding interview invites in January, so some schools definitely may be taking longer.

Lehigh: PM, BD, RH Syracuse: JF Temple: JB, XJ, LS I wouldn’t worry too much about whether or not you’re a competitive applicant, that’s truly something for the programs to be deciding. I applied straight out of undergrad two years ago with barely any experience and no publications, but I ended up going to two interviews. Sometimes, it really just comes down to luck. Funding was cut for the program I wanted to go to, so I ended up going to a MS for gen psych and I guess here I am. I’d be happy to share the MS program and the lab I’m currently in that’s school psych related if you’re also considering gaining more experience before applying later on if things don’t work out this round. It’s one of the only psych master’s programs that I know of that offers funding, so I’m basically going to school for free. OC13 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When is your Loyola interview? Is it in person or virtual? Have yet to hear back from them, so fingers crossed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have yet to hear back from them, so fingers crossed! Thank you! Loyola Chicago is interviewing Jan 10 and they want people to RSVP by Jan 3. There wasn’t anything in the email that made it seem like they were 100% finished going through applications, so they could still be inviting applicants to their virtual interview. Best of luck! mtgunner 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also indicated interest in PM, JF, and XJ - their work seems great! But yeah I'm currently applying straight out of undergrad. I would definitely be interested in a general psych MS program for experience before reapplying, but getting an EdS is also a consideration of mine and possibly doing a PhD later in the future. It's definitely my goal, regardless of when I get there! I do plan on applying to masters levels programs in general and then gauging the best decision for myself. If you're willing to share that'd be great! Edited December 17, 2021 by OC13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
