artsy16 Posted December 22, 2015 Posted December 22, 2015 @TickFckTockYou received an email from UAB to check your status? I haven't received that either, but I did think to check and mine also says still under program review.

asa.pearl Posted December 23, 2015 Posted December 23, 2015 Anyone hear from Temple University yet? Looks like one person posted on the results page that they heard from their PI that they received an interview. Thanks!
Rose1128 Posted December 23, 2015 Posted December 23, 2015 I also applied to Temple. Wonder who the POI was
artsy16 Posted December 23, 2015 Posted December 23, 2015 Still no email from UAB, status still says "under review". I think it's reasonable to assume rejection (or waitlist, to cling to a tiny but if hope) if they don't send emails to the rest of us by the end of the business day. Wouldn't make sense to notify some of an interview now and others after break, not much time to arrange travel.
JaeeeSon Posted December 24, 2015 Posted December 24, 2015 I couldn't come up here before submitting my apps. It would have been too stressful, on top of the stress I was already experiencing. I've applied to USC, UCLA, UWashington, Arizona State, Emory University, UMass Amherst, Boston University, and SUNY - Stony Brook. First time applicant. Fingers crossed that I get accepted but I'm also applying to Post-bacc programs for more research experience in case I don't get in. VentureIntoNothingness and JoePianist 2

Bless us with interviews the first 2 weeks of January. Sincerely, - Those who made TGC their home page. LOL so true. I'm amazed at how many schools send out interview invites or rejections before the holidays. To those who have received interview invites Congratulations and to those who still haven't heard anything or have gotten a rejection Hang in there because it isn't over yet. artsy16 and FeelTheBern 2

Oshawott Posted January 2, 2016 Posted January 2, 2016 3 hours ago, Generic_Applicant said: Congrats! When did you hear? Aren't schools closed for the holidays? Even if schools are closed, professors can "unofficially" reach out if they choose to. Its not too uncommon to unofficially hear something before getting an official word from administration (which does take a bit longer) if the professors were already given the applicant's materials before the break.

The professor emailed me on January 1st. I passed the committee wide selection process, so I believe now it is mostly up to the professor and each has their own way of doing things.

ClinicalApplicant07 Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 1 hour ago, beyondnervous said: Auburn invitation listed on TCG results page.... Oh boy. Just curious to know if it was sent from the DCT? (NOT curious to know who your POI was, if this is how you received the invite). Just wanting to know whether a "mass-email with invites" was sent. Thank you :-) They emailed this in December: "We intend to extend invitations for on-campus interview via e-mail between now and the end of January. Each of our clinical faculty have their own review process and timeline, which is why there is not a single interview notification date. Do not be discouraged if you learn that a fellow applicant has been selected for an interview, as it may be that the faculty member they applied to work with is simply further along in their review process" artsy16 and hopefulclinicalpsych 2
MarineBluePsy Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 Thank heavens for google! I received an email from the Program Coordinator at a school I applied to stating they couldn't find my GRE scores (side note....I dunno wtf is up with ETS, but this has been an issue with half the reports I ordered that were sent electronically). So after getting the tracking info from ETS I go to reply to the Program Coordinator only to realize their name doesn't obviously indicate if they are male or female. Their signature didn't mention being a professor so going with "Dr" didn't seem wise, but thankfully google led me to a page that listed them as "Mr. Program Coordinator." Getting that wrong would have been so embarrassing.
artsy16 Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 I've had issues with ETS too. One school still hasn't received my official GRE score.
emhopefulme Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 (edited) Anyone out there who applied to the clinical psych program in University of Alabama (Tuscaloosa) and University of Louisville? Have you guys receive anything from the schools? Edited January 6, 2016 by emhopefulme

I'm not sure if that's a good thing or not.
Psych_Major0123 Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 I also applied to Alabama and haven't heard anything yet! namarie 1
