I'm pretty sure my application is in limbo due to some transcript issues. I just wanted to make sure when the interview was so if for some miracle someone contacted me, I would be a bit prepared. But since it's the 30th, I wouldn't be able to make it anyway since I already confirmed an interview with another school. My POI apparently is allowing applicants to do Skype interviews so I wouldn't cross them off your list if you think you may still have a shot!
CounselingPsychPHD Posted January 14, 2017 Posted January 14, 2017 Hey everyone, I've been checking out this board for a while but just caved and made an account to post. I've applied to 9 Counseling Psych programs and 1 HDFS/MFT program, all at the doctoral level. I applied to: UGA- HDFS/MFT University of Tennessee-Knoxville- Counseling Psych University of Texas at Austin- CP University of Memphis- CP University of Maryland- CP Loyola Chicago- CP Boston College- CP Columbia University- CP University of Missouri-Kansas City- CP University of Denver- CP So far I've been invited to interview with Denver, UM Kansas City, and Loyola Chicago. I haven't heard from other programs, but since some people have reported hearing back from a few of those, I'm assuming I didn't get one (Maryland, UT Austin, UTK).

I believe UT Austin has already sent out. I didn't get one either

We only want programs that want and see potential in us I tell myself that if a program doesn't see the value in me, that it can't be the perfect program for me. I really believe it's all about fit.
Psychoplasmics Posted January 14, 2017 Posted January 14, 2017 Anyone know if Georgia State has extended all invites? I saw one back on the 4th, but never saw another.

School has a different research focus than what I am interested in.
asm77 Posted January 16, 2017 Posted January 16, 2017 So it's been great to see which schools have sent out invites...especially as I can (sadly) cross some off of my list. I applied to 10 counseling ph.d. programs: University of Denver University of Texas at Austin University of Michigan University of Miami University of North Dakota University of Oregon University of Wisconsin-Madison University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee University of Illinois-Chicago Utah State University So far, I've received 4 campus interview invites (Denver, North Dakota, Oregon & UW-Madison), 1 rejection (UW-Milwaukee). Haven't heard from the rest. Has anyone heard from University of Michigan, Miami, Illinois or Utah State? Thanks
counselingpsych2017 Posted January 17, 2017 Posted January 17, 2017 Hey, I have heard back from U Miami. I have not heard back from UT Austin so I am assuming I didn't receive an interview. Good luck and congrats on 4 interviews so far, that is awesome!

I'm also applying to a couple forensic psych MA's and a counseling MA. How is everyone holding up so far? Hey I'm also coming to Southern Mississippi for interview, looking forward to meet you, have you arranged accommodation?

It seems invites usually go out around this time and of course I'm anxiously awaiting. Would love to see if anyone else is in the same boat! I also applied to BC's Counseling program, if you check results from last year it looks like people got invites at the end of NEXT month, with final decisions around March-ish. In other news, my dear old alma mater (UMass Boston) rejected me today! But at least they didn't wait until May to notify me this year. I was offered a spot in their MA program though, so there's that. If you're still waiting on decisions for them, I wouldn't hold your breath unless you've been notified that you've been wait-listed. Also, the clinical psych department just got funding cut, so odds are the counseling program did too, just BTW for those of you interviewing there. Edited January 19, 2017 by academicbirb

Psychological Sciences UT Dallas UTD takes forever to send out results. I didn't get my rejection from them last year until June lol. UT Tyler tends to be more responsive and I've heard good things about their program, so good luck! If you're looking at an experimental/research based masters, have you considered UTSA's M.S. Psychology program? It's very similar to UTD's but they make no attempt to hide that it is basically a PhD prep program haha.
CounselingPsychPHD Posted January 19, 2017 Posted January 19, 2017 University of Memphis sent out an email this morning for interviews. Others are posting about Columbia and Boston College (I applied to both) and I haven't heard anything, so the anxiety is rising! Of course the final 3 CP programs I was waiting on all get back to applicants on the same day!

Those are definitely back up programs, so late response is okay (maybe. Lol) I unfortunately don't meet the requirements for UTSA, although it looks really great!
