FeelTheBern Posted January 24, 2016 Posted January 24, 2016 I am starting this thread because I have noticed that a lot of people have been asking questions like this lately on different threads. Make sure to specify your area when you post the school's name because that could make a difference. If you have contacted a school and know that all interview invites or acceptances/rejections have been sent out, this is a great place to post it! In the meantime, has anyone heard (cognitive psych area in particular) from: UIUC, UDel, UPenn, or UMass Amherst? I have seen a few things posted in Results Search about some of these schools, but not for the cognitive area. Does anyone know if interview invites/acceptances for the cognitive psych area at any these schools have already been extended?
TN_Bella Posted January 24, 2016 Posted January 24, 2016 Has anyone heard from UT-Austin's EdS LSSP program?
St0chastic Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 Hello. I have heard from UIUC's cognitive neuroscience area, and I know there is at least one person on this forum who has heard from the cognitive area. I could be wrong, but it's my impression that they have sent out all of their invites.
FeelTheBern Posted January 25, 2016 Author Posted January 25, 2016 Thanks @St0chastic, the cognitive person contacted me as well!
mylifeinshambles Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 I don't' know if they have separate social and cognitive interview weekends but I know that UDel has already contacted and invited for social.
feelthebern16 Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 we have almost the same name, so hi! good luck! FeelTheBern and ihatechoosingusernames 2

He said he would get in touch with me about a week, so I guess I would get feedback within this week.
everythingisfine Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 Has anyone heard from George Washington's social psych program?
didion10 Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 I emailed Amherst about clinical invites and they were responsive. Try it! can someone other than me please please please call ferkauf about clinical Ph.D. Interviews and when they will be sent. They always pick up the phone but I called twice already. (I submitted in December ) I'll bring you s coffee on their interview day if you ease my pain
didion10 Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 Also wondering about Ucsd/sdsu clinical psych. I see only two results but they should be inviting close to 70 people with 20 faculty looking for a student.interview date fast approaching, less than two weeks. Has anyone been notified?
AngryRobot! Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 @FeelTheBern Is he being angry or just shocked?

I have no idea, but I like it because you can tell that he means business. Maybe someone was asking him about Hillary's emails? RosyPosy68 1
ChicagoHappy Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 I don't understand why they just don't send rejections if they've already sent all the invites. That's so weird to me!

That's so weird to me! I have heard that on a rare occasion some schools will accept students that they didn't invite out for initial in person interviews if they feel none of the people they brought out for formal interviews were the right fit. (I know two graduate students in psychology at different universities who had this happen to them). I believe when this happens they set up skype interviews with that student and invite them to informally come see campus before making an acceptance offer. I wouldn't keep your hopes up because this isn't common from my understanding but it is a reason some schools may not send out rejections right away. Edited January 25, 2016 by jre2016

But it sure does make it challenging to make decisions about whether I'm going to take interviews personally on campus or virtually given my limited vacation time!
Analyticchic Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 UD(all the out of state people say Udel, I'm from Delaware) has sent out invites for clinical, social, and neuroscience but not all for cognitive yet. I've been in touch with one of POIs talking about research for a while and she told me to contact the head of the cognitive department but that the comittee sends out invites and not the POIs/that it'a pretty competitive. My status for my application hasn't been changed yet. I'm going to contact the head and see what he says if anything for a peace of mind
FeelTheBern Posted January 25, 2016 Author Posted January 25, 2016 Thanks for doing that @Analyticchic! Please let me know once you find out (you can PM me as well). It sounds like it will probably go out as a mass email then?
overdetermination Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 (edited) @FeeltheBern, did you get new info on UIUC? On 1/14 someone PM'd me to say they'd not met yet so I've been wondering... Edited January 25, 2016 by overdetermination
FeelTheBern Posted January 25, 2016 Author Posted January 25, 2016 @overdetermination I am private messaging you!
Moemoemoe Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 Has anyone heard from... Tufts - Social UVM - Experimental University of Washington, Seattle - Social Indiana University, Bloomington - Social SUNY, Stony Brook - Social and Health University of Chicago - Social UMD, College Park - SDOS Thank you!
psycgrad37 Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 Had anyone heard from Georgia State counseling psyc? There was one person who posted they have an interview but then there were other posters who said they contacted the program and were told that invites had not been sent.
RosyPosy68 Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 Has anyone heard from Harvard (specifically developmental, but really anything)... I know they usually interview later than other programs, but I just have to make sure. Also, has anyone heard from FSU Developmental?
PortlandPSYCH Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 Has anyone heard from UMinnesota's Child Psychology Ph.D program? Or Loyola Chicago's Developmental program?

Or Loyola Chicago's Developmental program? I applied to Loyola Chicago's Developmental program. My POI emailed me last week saying that they planned to invite me for an interview, but that they had to wait for the department to meet at the end of the month - so we'll probably find out in a week or two.

I should hear back from him in a few days FeelTheBern 1
