Psych.kitty Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Hi all! So... this is my fourth time applying to Universities all across Canada. I completed my Master's degree at Western University to try to upgrade my CV in the meantime, but I am already quickly losing faith. Anyways, I am wondering about UBC-Okanagan. Is it confirmed that this school has already sent out all interviews/rejection is pretty certain if we haven't heard back yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will save the date - and hope! The Open House is indeed on Feb 16th. There will be informational sessions related to York's psychology programs (razzle dazzle of why the program is strong and competitive), and then students usually breakout to pre-arranged meetings with faculty members and graduate students. When you hear back from your prospective PI, they should be able to let you know what to expect and whether he or she wants to meet with you that day.

CH217 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 (edited) UVic has sent out all the first round invites. They sometimes send out more invites later if they haven't filled all their spots, but it's unlikely. I got an interview invite from Guelph yesterday and it sounded like they were sending out all the invites at once. Hope that helps!

Do you know if after the York open house are there other formal/separate interviews or do they typically start sending offers after the open house? What tips can you offer if invited to the open house? Is it more information for attendees or are they also evaluating prospective students? If your POI asks to meet is it a super formal/panel interview? Thanks again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharbar Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 (edited) Notified by POI at U of M after prelim interview that I can expect an invitation to formal interview ?

Steph93 Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 (edited) For those of you inquiring about York, I received an invite to attend the Open House on Feb 16th to interview for the Clinical Developmental program. The email was sent by the POI last week. I also had a pre-interview via Skype with a POI at UVic back in early December, but haven't heard back from her since. I presume I didn't make her cut for a formal interview since they are next week. But, I was informed that I continue to be on a backup list for a possible second round of interviews. I am scheduling a meeting with my top-choice POI (who is not clinical faculty) for the end of next week when he knows if there are any remaining slots that are still open for interviews. He informed me that he is not hopeful he will be able to take a student (since the clinical faculty are given priority), but that if he is, I am one of his top two choices. Fingers crossed! Also applied to Concordia, but haven't heard a peep from them. I emailed the program coordinator, Kim Breux, and asked if all interview offers had already been sent, but she said that each faculty member will select students differently. My first choice POI informed me she is unable to take a student, but other faculty are still reviewing applications. This was 5 days ago. I am not sure if they have a deadline or how their interview process works, but if anyone else has heard from them, please message me!

Thanks again During the Open House, you may end up meeting the Director of Clinical Training in your area (C or CD), and some other faculty members. If you haven't spoke to or met your POI yet, you will on that day. You may also meet some of the grad students in the program or in your prospective labs. The atmosphere is quite warm and welcoming, as it is meant to showcase the program and the perks about being a graduate student at York. Generally, I haven't heard any students complain or leave feeling anxious after the Open House as the meetings are quite positive. It often bumps up York on their list of schools too Neurophilic, prospectclin and butt0n 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
