Would you happen to know if all the invites for kent’s Dev. Have gone out?
CLin94 Posted January 9, 2018 Posted January 9, 2018 Has anyone heard from the clinical track out of Minnesota's child psych program (DPCS)?

applesauceboss Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 I'm so excited for all of you guys who have gotten skype interviews and/or interview invites!! Reading about them on this thread really brightens my day I applied to two programs at Pitt (Cognitive and Developmental) to work with two different people. A few weeks ago, I was recommended for interviews for both programs by one POI who is accepting students for either program. I ended up choosing to only attend the interview weekend for the cog program because the dev program interview overlaps with my interview at UMD (Human Dev, College of Education). My POI for the dev program recently reached out to me, informed me that I was short-listed, and invited me to a Skype interview with him, his grad students, post doc, and lab manager. Has anyone been told that they are short-listed? What does this mean? Should I prepare for anything in addition to how I would prep if I were just speaking with my POI? hg92 and Magic7090 1 1

I can’t speak for Pitt, but this happened to me last year. It could be a POI’s short list or an overall program shortlist. Last year with TSU Knoxville, I was shortlisted by my POI after a phone interview. He was very kind and honest- so maybe just ask more questions in your case? In my case, if the individual/s in front of me declined interview or admissions, I moved up his short list which consisted of 4 individuals. Hope this helps! would you happen to know when the dev. Pitt interview is and if they have sent out all their interview invitations? thanks!

Did they offer one interview day or could you choose one of two? Feel free to PM me! Thanks! It seemed like they were all extended of UNC Counseling, because the interview email came from the Program Assistant rather than my POI. There is only one date (2/9). But the invitations only went out two days ago, so there may still be spaces open as interviews are turned down!

pataka Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 I thought I saw a while ago that someone had a phone interview with their PoI for the Counseling Psychology program at the U of Minnesota. If that's you, would you mind sending me your PoI initials? And congrats! I heard that UMN only does phone interviews and then invites admitted students to a welcome weekend.
Jung@Heart Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 Has anyone heard anything from the counseling psych program at Colorado State Fort Collins? Perhaps even the request for the application fee?

First off, congrats on the interview invitations! Being short-listed means you are on a very short-list of candidates being considered for the position after all applications have been reviewed.... you are on step closer to being offered a spot in the program(but you are still being compared to other candidates - who will be interviewed as well. The PI I at Cal who I work for does this. We are interviewing four students in total for one final spot and this seems to be a trend. However, some years we take nobody and other years some PIs take more than one candidates. However, I do not believe all PIs practice this policy....some may only invite one or two people to interview. Best of luck....I'm sure you will rock the interviews!

hg92 Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 (edited) Also, has anybody heard from Stanford's Affective Science Area? I haven't seen anything updating in the official admissions forum - but believe Stanford typically begins to reach out about this time of year.... Edited January 10, 2018 by hg92
Cognition001 Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 Does anyone know how University of Wisconsin-Madison makes its admission decisions. I reached out to a professor pre-application and he emailed me about a week ago saying he wasn't going to extend me an invitation so I assumed I was rejected. However, I recently heard from another professor in the cognition program who wants to skype with me. I was under the impression that most programs make interview/admission decisions as a group. Is this different across universities?

I think prof. 1 just meant you weren't a good fit for his lab so he personally would not recommend you for admission. The other prof. probably thinks you're a great fit for his own lab, thus the interview.
