Did anyone receive a generic email from the child clinical department at Windsor?

I applied to child clinical and I have not received anything.

Email about an interview at Windsor. Haven't heard from any other schools yet though (besides a rejection from Waterloo). 

Hey Psych.Kitty,

What stream at Windsor messaged you for an interview (child, adult etc)?

How long after an interview do people typically get contacted by their POI regarding whether or not they're likely to be admitted?

Hey everyone, I got an email invite from adult clinical at Windsor for a preliminary skype interview and an invite to Ryerson's Visiting Day. But, I have an upcoming interview with another prof from Ryerson so some faculty there may still be conducting interviews independently.

Do you mind sharing your Ryerson POI with me please?

Yeah I did wonder about this, since I only spoke with my POI last Tuesday, and he said that he had a few other applicants to interview with for the rest of the week. 

Can you please send me your POI for Ryerson? I haven't heard anything from them yet.

I have an interview to Ryerson this week, and my POI has told me that she'd be extending the invite to the visiting day after she'd made her short-list following the preliminary interviews

Can you please send me your Ryerson POI? It will be much appreciated!

Last year, my POI emailed me 5 days after our interview via email.

After reading through this thread, it sounds like Ryerson is a no-go if I haven't heard back yet. Has anyone heard from or received any form of update from the following?

Manitoba, UBC, Regina, Lakehead, Ottawa

U of Ottawa sent me an email this morning saying my application was updated and that there may have been a technical error... I wouldn't mind knowing exactly what that means... Upon looking at my application, I see that my transcripts have supposedly not been received (they were sent on like Nov. 12). My transcripts, along with other parts of my application, had displayed this for a while. However, other aspects of my application were updated and confirmed as being received, but this still has no little check mark beside it. Is anyone else experiencing this, by chance? Or am I just screwed? :/

For U of M (the one that I care about the most by far), my prospective supervisor emailed me recently, as she was unable to access my GRE scores (I then informally sent her my scores via email to help her out). This is odd because my application file does say that they have been received. Apparently this has happened to a few applicants, in case anyone is reading this and is worried about U of M. I suppose it's a good sign to hear that she's looking over it (I assume this means it may have passed an initial review by the adcom)? Or maybe that's being too optimistic - I don't know. If somehow something went wrong and my application is disqualified due to issues with the transfer of GRE scores... Well, that will be the last straw, ETS!

I hope not...

I am experiencing the exact same thing with UOttawa. Apparently they're using a new system this year and there's been some issues. I was told not to worry about it and it should all be fixed soon.

I also received the same e-mail this morning. I am showing only some items as checked off but others not which is odd because all my supporting documents were sent in one package so if one of those documents were received it should be the same status for everything else. It might get corrected in the next few days. Last week I had called the graduate faculty of social science and they said the corrections could take up to 10 business days.

Thank you both for clarifying! There were other issues with their new system when I first applied as well (I think one of them was multiple contradictions regarding how reference letters were to be sent). I suppose I shouldn't be surprised. I'm sure the person on the other end of those emails is getting fed up with all the complaints :)

I am sure it happened to a lot of applicants. Will let you know once my file is shown as complete!

I also got the emails this morning. Two weeks ago, the system was showing that I was missing some documents, even though I had sent them a long time ago. I just emailed them with the documents that were missing (because I was worried they just didn't get to them through mail...) and they updated my file. I'm sure every applicant has the same problem at this point tho, they probably received your stuff, but the system is acting up on them.

I was informed by the admissions office at Ryerson today that interview invitations are still going out and that even if you did not receive an invite for a preliminary interview you may still be accepted. So don't give up hope yet! :-)

Do you know if the interview invitations are coming directly from POIs, or is the department sending them out? And do you know if they plan on having all invites done by a certain date?

I've interviewed with my POI and it honestly sounds like she doesn't plan on doing any in-person interviews for whatever reason. But I still feel the need to know everything lol
