Phiner. Determination Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Hey All!I saw this thread created in previous years and thought it would be great to have a support network! Applied to 12 clinical and counseling programs this cycle. Have completed 3/4 interviews so far. I was wait-listed for a two programs post interview, and alternate for one program pre-interview. Not sure how to feel at this point. This is my second application cycle. Any who.. Looking for a judgement-free zone to discuss the process and offer support to my fellow wait-listers...

artsy16 Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 I'm also waitlisted at a couple programs. Such an emotional roller coaster, it's definitely stressing me out. As an aside, I'm not sure if it was you who posted a link to this thread on the results page, but please don't do that again (you, or whoever posted it). Clogging the results page with comments (which don't belong there) instead of decisions makes it more difficult for current and future applicants to find relevant results. Good luck this application cycle. Magic7090, Psych_Law, silverwreath and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borubeb Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Nice thread! Ive had 2 interviews and I have another 2. My first interview was at my top choice. The interview was about 3 weeks ago. I haven't heard anything and I haven't seen anything on the results page. I am considering emailing my POI (there isn't an office director) to ask... Not sure though... What do you think? Phiner.

Phiner. Determination Posted February 19, 2016 Author Share Posted February 19, 2016 Hi Borubeb! Good Luck with the process! This has been a really stressful time. I think that is the toughest part of waiting. A way that I got around this was by sending thank you letters to my POI. In my experience they reply with a timeline of when responses should be sent. However, there has been one program that has not given any information at all. Even after the thank you letter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auroratemi Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Pardon my ignorance, but what's the difference between being on the wait list and being an alternate? Are the two terms often used interchangeably? I was told I was on a wait list for one school and an alternate for another? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phiner. Determination Posted February 22, 2016 Author Share Posted February 22, 2016 I am not sure if there is a difference. I have been told the same by two different programs. I am hoping one turns into an acceptance. One interview left, but things are looking slim.. Might be entering cycle 3.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
