Write them down I've had phone interview so far so it hasn't been difficult, but I plan on bringing a small notebook I can fit in my bag for my in-person visits. People also bring copies of their CVs, so wherever they keep that they can keep a list of questions/paper to take notes if needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think so. I mean, I might be the odd one out, but I have no issue being like, "I have a list of questions I'd like to ask you about the school and department, if we have time" or if they ask if I have questions I am okay saying, "Yes I have a list right here!" I interview undergrads at my work, and I'd rather they come with a written out list of talking points than sit and be like "ummmmmm.................I don't think so" when I ask if they have questions. It shows preparedness! PS - good luck! Edited January 23, 2017 by dormcat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PNIplz Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Called Carnegie Mellon and the Social/Personality/Health area will have invites out by the end of the week! Should expect a departmental email if you are invited. MyDogHasAPhD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What'sMyName Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 (edited) In regards to KU: I emailed the graduate officer at KU late last week (as she is listed for asking application questions) and she informed me that she hadn't heard any news about them deciding on applicants. Hope this helps put some of us at ease. I'm also ASSUMING they will get together soon and start getting in touch this week or next. But only because SPSP is over.

What'sMyName Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Also, since I'm new here, I thought I would post what I've heard from which programs: Rutgers (New Brunswick) - Had a phone interview on the 6th (it went poorly) and I assume I have been wait listed as I haven't heard anything else. I'm pretty positive on-campus interview invitations have already been sent. Penn State - POI told me I am wait listed. UMich - Haven't heard a peep, but since rejections are going out I'm assuming I am wait listed. Portland State University - Had a Skype interview this morning that I was very happy with! They will be giving invitations to the Visitor's Day in about 2 weeks. University of Iowa - Nothing University of North Dakota - Nothing University of Kansas - emailed graduate officer late last week and she said she hasn't heard anything (as I had mentioned, but in case anyone missed it) Stony Brook - Nothing I'm hoping that good news will be abundant this week for all of us!

fadedfigures Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Any updates for University of Denver from anyone? I notice invitations are going out, but they seem to be scattered across a few days. I'm hoping to hear some good news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got an email to interview at the beginning of January, but it was for developmental. The PI said the program would be making decisions in the next 2-3 weeks, so by the end of January. Last cycle I applied there and knew by end of January, official rejection came mid-February. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
What'sMyName Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 (edited) Did anyone else notice that a rejection has been posted in the results for KU? Or was that one of you that posted it? Ugh, sounds like they really are getting started! Stated 82 applicants, 3-4 spots. Anyone else feeling anxious?

Blackwater Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 I am certain that is not true! A lot of the time it's because your POI wasn't able to take applicants this year. I am still waiting to hear from KU myself, and am betting that the system is just taking a while to email the rest of us. 16 minutes ago, marsbars said: That was me Got my rejection e-mail tonight at 7:25 pm EST I must have been the least qualified/interesting candidate in history for such a quick rejection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForeverJung Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 The KU rejection bug strikes! Trying to poke fun at my first rejection. I am just glad I am starting to hear back from programs. Congrats to those who heard better news. Crazy to think they are only accepting between 3-4% of the applicants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
