You have to apply for the MA, do the clinical MA coursework, but most schools will give you credit for the MA thesis you already completed.
clinpsychopeful Posted February 5, 2016 Posted February 5, 2016 I was accepted to UTSC Clinical Psychology. I received a phone call from Dr. Bagby, not Minnie. My interview was in person during the interview days on Jan 25/26.
PhD_Wannabe01 Posted February 5, 2016 Posted February 5, 2016 Hey, Has anyone heard from U of Saskatchewan?

Dr. Bagby isn't my POI, but he called because he's the chair. I haven't accepted the offer yet so I'd rather not say my POI - still have a few interviews, but I'm pretty certain I'll accept UTSC.

I was thinking of emailing the graduate program assistant tomorrow to ask about the status of applications. They don't get many per year, so it shouldn't take this long to contact people.
Round_2 Posted February 5, 2016 Posted February 5, 2016 I'm waiting on Saskatchewan too. Anyone hear from Calgary yet?

Eeee this waiting is intense and it seems interview invites have already gone out? Expand I emailed the coordinator for Lakehead and she informed me that successful applicants will be notified "within probably by the end of the month." They are still reviewing the applicants. I also found out that Lakehead doesn't have interviews. Not all hope is lost! Fingers crossed!

Congrats on ur acceptance.
clinicalapplicant Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 (edited) For those applying to OISE Counselling and Clinical Psychology, faculty is meeting next week to make decisions. So some acceptances will likely go out next week (usually those are by phone call or e-mail), but OISE is known for also informing accepted applicants in April as well. If you don't hear back next week, do not lose hope at all as it can be any time from next week until even a bit after April. Edited February 6, 2016 by clinicalapplicant
Generic_Applicant Posted February 6, 2016 Author Posted February 6, 2016 Have all acceptances for utsc gone out? Anyone know anything about Ryerson?
Generic_Applicant Posted February 8, 2016 Author Posted February 8, 2016 POI at utsc told me that offers to a handful of applicnats have already gone out. I didn't make the cut ("yet".. :/ ) So that's two rejections for me. Waiting on ryerson at this point, which I've been told will have recommendations going on early this week. Good luck everyone

Expand I also already have an MA, but even if you apply to the MA level (which seems to be the easier way in) it doesn't necessarily mean you'll need to do another Thesis. My experience is that most schools will still consider you for entry into the PhD, you may just need to complete a year of make-up courses at the MA level. Of course, that varies by program and school.
