kaswing Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Just had my first (skype) interview with a POI yesterday. It went really well! I am super excited about her work and the kind of department it is, and the more I think about it, the more I want to go! Help! Now I have 3 favorite schools! Two was already pushing it.

Tolman's Rat Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 You're on fire, congrats!! Feelin' good! Thanks! Just had my first (skype) interview with a POI yesterday. It went really well! I am super excited about her work and the kind of department it is, and the more I think about it, the more I want to go! Help! Now I have 3 favorite schools! Two was already pushing it. My strategy was to push down 'dream programs' that I felt were very unlikely whether due to prestige (UW-M) or POI uncertainties (UCSD), which left my third "top choice" my actual top choice. Previously, they were all tied. Sort of a pessimistic approach, but it's worked for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackscotch Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Hi everyone. My first time here. I'm also applying for Clinical Psychology programs in Canada for Fall 2015 admission. I happen to also be in a position where I would have some insight on the other side of things - without giving too much away, I'll say that I'm privvy to some information that a regular applicant wouldn't have, at a major institution. If you have any questions... I'll try to answer them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neuroticneuro Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Has anybody heard from Duke or Vanderbilt?? (not clinical) Journey2015 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tolman's Rat Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Got a Skype interview with Tufts cognitive (applied for joint PhD in cognitive science). I have a feeling that at least my POI is doing a lot of interviews. She had her research manager get in touch with me to schedule into one of several time slots. Funny the differences between programs in terms of what an interview really means. Some programs, it means "don't make a fool of yourself, and you're in," and others make it a continuation of the selection process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rtxj90 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 I've been offered invites to U of Oregon and UNC Chapel Hill for clinical psychology! Now, just waiting on any other programs, but these are my top programs so I'm happy. CleverUsername15 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

isilya Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 It's so weird that after all of the painful waiting, everything starts happening all at once! I've heard from 4 schools in the past 5 days about interviews... Tolman's Rat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tolman's Rat Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 (edited) Someone viewed my academia.edu profile today but I can't figure out who it might be--for some reason, the city is not showing up, just that the individual searched from the US. Seems strange since my interviews/acceptances/rejects seem pretty set in stone at this point. Edit: Figured it out. Same person (assuming) viewed my LinkedIn profile.

TXInstrument11 Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Feelin' good! Thanks! My strategy was to push down 'dream programs' that I felt were very unlikely whether due to prestige (UW-M) or POI uncertainties (UCSD), which left my third "top choice" my actual top choice. Previously, they were all tied. Sort of a pessimistic approach, but it's worked for me That's kind of how I'm looking at this all now. With acceptance rates so astronomically low in social psych, I thought it prudent not to get my heart set on any one school. This has essentially forced me to emphasize the negatives of my original favorites or simply not think of them at all. I just try to be flexible about it. I feel like a hippie saying this, but it is all about perspective. Even if I only get into my bottom choice program, at least I got accepted, and I shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth.

Ilspflouz Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 (edited) Anyone here applying to Bowling Green for Clinical Psych? If so have you contacted the office at all about when they will be sending out interview invites? I'm thinking any day now because all the dates from last year on the GC results page are past. But, just trying to narrow it down. Edited January 20, 2015 by AliasJane2342 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emily89 Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Has anybody heard from Clark? Haven't heard anything either (clinical). (and social apparently!) CleverUsername15 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mb712 Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Haven't heard anything either (clinical). (and social apparently!) The silence from Clark is weird given I was sent at least a few automated email reminders about finishing my application. You would think they would do the same after the fact, at least with stages or something since they were so thorough about people finishing open applications.

I think of all the ones I applied to, UC Davis was the best about maintaining contact. They sent these cute little messages now and then telling me cute stuff to think about their campus. All very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
