tauren Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Hey thanks. Maybe I'll see you at OSU! Going into developmental? No, Clinical Health. I'm actually a2nd year and am leaving my current program for clinical. I somehow managed to sear how stressful this waiting time was from 2 years ago!
BlueCamel Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Anyone wanna claim the Harvard interview for social psychology?? Who is the POI?? thanks!!
psychgurl Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Stefan Huynh- would you mind PMing me your POI at UVA?? Thanks!!
gellert Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Anyone wanna claim the Harvard interview for social psychology?? Who is the POI?? thanks!! Can I second this please?
tauren Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Whoever got the interview/interview invite for Cognitive Psych at WUSTL, are the programs deciding on invites at separate times or collectively ?
che psyra psyra Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 I just received the interview invite from POI via phone for the Northeastern University Social Psychology program. Back up school but great research program! Congratulations! If you don't mind, are you also the results poster who mentioned that official invites would go out soon? Do you happen to know how soon? So nervous over here!
mandipsych Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 For those of you posting on gradcafe on the results threat for Northwestern, especially whomever just posted this... "Northwestern Univerisity Psychology, PhD (F12) Interview via E-mail on 7 Jan 2012 ♦ A 9 Jan 2012" Feinberg medical or Weinberg college of arts? Please distinguish for those of us who also applied there (yes, i know they are different, but just in case). Thanks! (and congrats). Sorry I didn't specify- Weinberg college of arts!
mmm2 Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 I was contacted by my POI at Harvard for an interview on the 9th, but I didn't post it on GradCafe. I did post it on SDN, and the post on the results survey pretty much exactly matches what I wrote, including the date. I'm wondering if someone else got the same invite as I did (likely from the same POI), or if someone just saw my posting on SDN and added it to the results survey. Either way though, anyone who would like to know who my POI is can PM me. xiaoma 1
fingers_toes_X Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 (edited) Got interview invite from the developmental program at Penn State last week. The letter said that POI 'might' contact candidates - I have not heard anything from my POI so far, but a person posted on the result survey stated that s/he has been contacted. A bit worried..

BlueCamel Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Congratulations! If you don't mind, are you also the results poster who mentioned that official invites would go out soon? Do you happen to know how soon? So nervous over here! Well I got an official invite through the email the next day after the professor called. I think this is generally the trend (from other acceptance by Northeastern). Good Luck!!
che psyra psyra Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Well I got an official invite through the email the next day after the professor called. I think this is generally the trend (from other acceptance by Northeastern). Good Luck!! Rats! Thanks for the info!
BlueCamel Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Rats! Thanks for the info! I think it also depends on when you sent in the applications cause I sent mine in pretty early (sometimes in early-mid december)
che psyra psyra Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 I think it also depends on when you sent in the applications cause I sent mine in pretty early (sometimes in early-mid december) Yes, looking at the results survey it doesn't seem like it was a mass invite... true? Disappointment passing!
Scalia Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Is anyone getting "antsy" that they haven't heard anything back even though there has nothing been posted on the results board? Scalia 1
socpsy123 Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 @ scalia: YES! no posts yet for any of the schools i applied to and i am definitely anxious. just a general question for everyone: is it inappropriate to email the POI you contacted prior to applying to inquire about the status of your application? what is the ettiquete regarding this? thanks in advance to those that reply! best of luck to all of you.

I would wait for now. It's still really early in the game (at least I think!). The POI may get annoyed with people emailing before any decisions have been made. Does anyone have any input about when would be a good time to contact an admissions coordinator or POI?
William_James Posted January 12, 2012 Author Posted January 12, 2012 to the stanford poster - mind PMing me to say who POI was? I was the other post a while back.
mmm2 Posted January 13, 2012 Posted January 13, 2012 Looks like the UPenn invites were a mass mailing--can anyone confirm this and also if they were for a specific program track or across the dept?
Scalia Posted January 13, 2012 Posted January 13, 2012 I would wait for now. It's still really early in the game (at least I think!). The POI may get annoyed with people emailing before any decisions have been made. Does anyone have any input about when would be a good time to contact an admissions coordinator or POI? I'm interested in this question as well, but with a caveat: Does the department's interview weekend have anything to do with it? E.g. If it is two weeks before the department's scheduled interview weekend can I call admissions coordinator or POI?
Scalia Posted January 13, 2012 Posted January 13, 2012 Also, can we agree that using the results board as a way to communicate with previous posters is a bad idea? I get antsy when I see a result come in for a school I'm waiting to hear from just to read in the description that they are looking for details from a previous poster and are not in fact posting a communication with a school.
BlueCamel Posted January 13, 2012 Posted January 13, 2012 Anyone heard anything bout Michigan yet!?!? Or WashU!? I am the only one in my school applying for social psychology graduate school, so I don't have colleagues to ask, so please share any news!!!!! THANKS
psychdork Posted January 13, 2012 Posted January 13, 2012 @ Scalia: Yes! @ BlueCamel: I haven't heard anything from Michigan so far (I also applied to the social psych program). To the Purdue (social psych) poster, would you please PM me your POI?
tauren Posted January 13, 2012 Posted January 13, 2012 Just checked the Ohio U psych department site and this was posted: "Invitation-only interview dates for prospective clinical and experimental graduate student applicants are Friday, February 3rd and Friday, February 10th, 2012." http://www.ohioupsychology.com/2012-...nterviews.html No info on interview invites though.
