Yes I'd like to know as well if you don't mind. There hasn't been anything posted on the results page, and I had heard that it may take a few weeks for offers to go out since they're also in the process of hiring a new faculty member.

I believe Houston is finished extending interviews; theirs is the 10th.

I think USUHS went out. I received mine earlier this week.... Wishing you the very best of luck!

Utah and Auburn both have extended interviews. Utah' interview dates are 2/8 or 2/10 and Auburn's is 2/11. Though I think someone mentioned Auburn's DCT said they hadn't all gone out.

Has anyone heard from Florida Institute of Technology (PsyD)? 

[Psych_hopeful]

Has anyone heard anything from Temple after the interviews? I'm trying to figure out if they are calling all acceptances across the board? Or if they are calling based on when the PI makes his/her final decisions, and thus the admissions will be staggered. If anyone can shed some light on this, that'd be great! The anticipation is frying my nerves!

That is so embarrassing, and reflects so much of their (AWFULLY RUDE) program coordinator. Wow. The faculty there is a mess as well, Dr. Weathers didn't "realize" he couldn't accept students because lack of funding until AFTER deadlines, so everyone who applied to work with him basically got their application thrown into a rejection pile- And of course the majority of applicants still don't know this. Messy school, messy program, crappy funding issues, I wouldn't want to go there anyways. Dodged a huge bullet  

I definitely sympathized with you. A POI, one of my top choice, approached me to dicuss about interview details. Right after I booked my tickets to that city, he wrote me that he could not take a student this year and withdrawn the interview invitation. It turned out that he did not realize he was short of funding at that time. I was not very happy about it, but it was what it was. Despite that he encouraged me to apply there next year if I am not in a doctoral program at that time, I probably would not apply again.

I hope you are feeling well and will enter your dream school this year.

Perhaps you could write your POI directly. My POI told me that I was on the waitlist and DCT would let me know about the details soon. According to my knowledge that offers have been extended on Tuesday. Sorry I am a bit down as well. Good luck with other interviews.

Had a very similar experience at USC with a POI who said he was taking students and then ended up not actually having the funding himself - only could take students if another faculty member was interested in that student and could fund them. Seems like something that could have been mentioned months ago instead of after applying.

Would you mind PMing me who your POI was? I applied and have an inkling it may have been my POI as well

Hmmm, I'm wondering then if the calls are being made based on when the PI makes their decision? Because I have not heard anything, and I would have thought that if my PI made her decision if I were accepted, a high alternate, or low alternate,  I would know.

Has anyone heard back for the University of Washington child clinical program? In the admissions survey there is only one post about someone hearing from them (jan 19). 

[tanm55]

Has anyone gotten interview invites from Marquette or UMass Boston??

Can the person who got the Harvard interview please PM me your POI? Thank you!

At what point after interviews is it appropriate to contact the program regarding admissions decisions? And who would be the best person to contact (POI, DCT, other administrator)?

If it were me, I think I would try to wait about 3 weeks, especially since it's still only January.

Thanks for the reply! I was also thinking I should wait at least another week (which would make it 3 weeks), it's just so hard not knowing haha.

Yeah of course! I totally understand--I just had my interview at my top choice program today, and cannot comprehend what I will do if more than about two weeks go by and I haven't heard anything haha

Mine is my top choice too, it's agonizing. But best of luck, and I hope you hear back sooner than I have!
