DevPsy Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Hello everyone! I figured I'd start this thread up especially since I haven't seen a similar thread for this cycle yet. I applied to 13 Ph.D. programs: U of Denver, UCONN, Rutgers, Penn State, Boston U, Catholic U, U of Maryland (BC), Temple, U of Houston, U of Pittsburgh, George Mason, and Yale (because I currently work there as a postgrad) Feel free to divulge whatever details you'd like to share here! And once interview rounds start approaching and decisions start pouring in, questions and other related things are more than welcome! gnr18 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psychapplica Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Thanks for starting! Are you focused on applied or research? I applied to 11 schools, this is unfortunately not my first cycle. I have been fortunate enough to receive one interview invitation so far! Now I’m super nervous and anxiously awaiting word from other programs! Best to everyone out there ?

I've been religiously refreshing the results page and also checking my email; would love to know if anyone heard back from any of these schools! Same- refresh... refresh...refresh. Lol. It’s totally not healthy. I’ve been trying to bust myself with leisurely activities. If the above schools are the only schools you applied to, we actually have no overlap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this the norm or was this school just really early? I am focused on research. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gnr18 Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Applied to 5 programs but my top choice is Notre Dame! Submitted my applications Dec 1st and freaking out a bit because I haven't heard anything back yet... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psychapplica Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Congrats! I also applied to Rochester but have not yet heard back... sigh. As for PSU, I work there, our PI hasn’t even looked at applications yet (clinical of course). She said it does seem early that interviews are going out already, but there seems to be a lot of them!

Our PI made me feel like it’s pretty individualized. For example our PI has truly been so busy she has not had time to look at applicants. I imagine some POI’s are super eager and jump the gun while others are simply stretched thin and look at applications at the last minute. Hope this helps! At least our applications truly go through a human’s hands lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

01sonal Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 @cashewmilk Sure thing! I was contacted about setting up an initial Skype interview during the last week of January (3 weeks before the interview weekend). I do not know if this is their standard protocol, but if so it could be a while until you hear anything, unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes me feel so much better knowing interviews do not start until late Jan/Early Feb. I read that on the admissions site and actually wanted to call and clarify but did not want to come off too over the top :/ Guess it is all about the waiting game at this point.

IJustWannaGoToSchool Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 Hello All, I'm right there with you guys with the refreshing emails and the application portals (with the added bonus of unsubscribing from any listserv that gets my hopes up because I think its a school). I'll try and add to the convo in anyway I can. I applied to a couple of developmental programs (Berkeley, UVA, BC, BU, Chicago, Duke, Georgetown, Michigan, and UCSD). Right now I'm in the airport coming back from Berkeley's visit day. I've had phone interviews with BC and with 1 cognitive program at UDel, and am attending the visit day at UVA which is my home institution. Psyching myself out now because I've heard alot of things from fellow interviewees that they'd already gotten interviews at some of the places I'm applying so... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ . Hope this helps anyone at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psychapplica Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Sorry @IJustWannaGoToSchool I don’t think we have any over lapping schools! Good luck on your visiting day- what is that? I also was invited to “visit a campus and meet faculty and grad students.” What is that? My current advisor said that they program likely just didn’t use the word interview to avoid stressing applicants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
