Stauce Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 1 hour ago, psychedelic2 said: @Psychapplica I typically find the best prices on momondo.com , kayak.com/flights , or google flights. I keep updated on the best prices and choose which airline to fly based on what I find there. Also, depending on what airports you would depart from and arrive to, Southwest Airlines often has good priced flights if you can snag one early (check their website). If you would be checking a bag, Southwest is also good bc they provide 2 free checked bags.. most airlines don't offer that.. so bringing your things as a carry-on would save money otherwise. Hope this helps!! SkyScanner is great too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psychologyandpizza Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 For those who applied, Arizona State’s Counseling Psychology faculty are meeting tomorrow to determine who will be invited to interviews. Magic7090 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAS50 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Hey all! Anyone hear anything from Emory's two non-clinical programs (NAB or COD)? They are both small programs (very little about either one anywhere on this site!), and I think the 2018 weekend or weekends will take place in February. Thanks!

th3redrabbit Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 I just received an interview invite from Pittsburgh's Biological and Health Psychology program, in case anyone applied to them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FeministPsychologist Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 (edited) Hi all! I've been lurking for quite a while and thought it was finally time to post myself. Applying for a Counseling Psychology PhD. So far, I've had phone interviews with my POIs for UWM (which ended in a rejection), University of Maryland (still haven't heard back, even though I was given a time period?), and UCSB (which resulted in an invite to the onsite interview). So definitely a variation of responses. I also applied to University of Florida, Teacher's College at Columbia, and Boston College. I saw a couple people post about Maryland and Florida. Do you think it would be appropriate to email the graduate office to ask about my application? I don't want to seem impatient though, and I know it's a waiting game. It's so hard to hang in there, but best of luck to all of us who applied! Edited January 16, 2018 by FeministPsychologist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I emailed the graduate office of UFL, and being told that “The Psychology Area’s began Interviews starting Mid – to Late January.” Hope this helps. So I am not sure if there is still a need to wait for that, since it is already mid Jan, and I did not get an invitation.

CounselingPsychApp2018 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Hi everyone I know it's still prime time to hear back about interview invites. I've heard from 4/8 schools I applied to. My question is, is it possible that schools will rule you out but not notify you? I recently saw that someone got an invite at one of the schools I applied to about a week ago but I haven't heard anything. I know it's still early so I'm trying to stay calm.

It's so hard to say because programs vary so much in this respect! For example, I unsuccessfully applied last year and didn't receive any communication about my status until programs had secured their incoming class and sent out rejections. I applied to a different set of schools this year and while I've had more success with interviews, I've had three schools definitively reach out to let me know I'm no longer being considered (without them having hosted their interview days yet), and one school that hasn't reached out but I know invitations have already been extended. So yes, it's possible that you may be out of contention without being notified, but it may still be too early to count yourself out! Good luck; I hope you get some good news soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

App for your phone that helps identify good times to buy, when prices will increase, drop etc. If prices are about to increase, it'll send you a notification to buy now.

georginazhou Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 (edited) Emailing for updates about application status to POI, and being told the admission outcome will probably be a while, and ended with the phrase “stay tuned :)” I feel I have been over analysing every word in the email. Trying to tell myself the smily face is a good sign. But she might just be nice, becuase I am a volunteer RA in her lab. She wrote me an LoR tho. I really want to get in this school. What you guys think? Edited January 17, 2018 by georginazhou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truth is, I didn't apply yo C&D, just NAB, but there is a lot of overlap, so I thought I'd ask about both. I am hoping and hoping that the NAB weekend isn't at the same time. If it is, I imagine that I am not on the list.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rich uncle skeleton Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Asked this in a separate thread but figured it might work here (I'm looking at developmental psych programs): I have a few visits coming up and I was wondering if I should be emailing with my POI before them about research ideas, or if I should just wait until the weekend to discuss everything. I feel like it's weird to go somewhat silent, but I don't want to be sending insignificant emails just to keep up contact. Does anyone have any advice for this situation?

AceJace2 Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Hey everyone. I'm not sure if anyone on this thread is interested in Health Psychology PhD (non-clinical) programs, but I have included what I know below: School: North Carolina State University Track and/or specialization within psychology program: Applied Social and Community Psychology, Ph.D. Interview type: On-campus interview. Date: Feb 1st-3rd School: Kent State University Track and/or specialization within psychology program: Health Psychology, Ph.D. Interview type: On-campus interview. Date: Feb 9th-10th School: University of North Carolina at Charlotte Track and/or specialization within psychology program: Health Psychology, Ph.D. Interview type: On-campus interview. Date: TBD-Have to do an alternative interview date. Will most likely be in Feb. Original date was Jan 26th School: Virginia Commonwealth University Track and/or specialization within psychology program: Health Psychology, Ph.D. Interview type: On-campus interview was offered but I have to do a Skype due to financial trouble. To be fair VCU isn't the highest on my list so I justified it. My POI made the point to say that he has accepted people over Skype before. Date: TBD-Have to do Skype interview. Will most likely be in Feb. Original date was Feb 8th or 16th Also applied: University of Utah Social Psychology Ph.D.; University of Houston Social Psychology and Health Ph.D.; and Purdue University Health Communication Ph.D. Utah interview day is Feb 9th and I haven't heard so my hope is low. Houston application was due on Jan 15th so they have time to review. I have no idea about Purdue lol. Hoping for the best! I've never done on-campus interviews before.

The only school that did travel reimbursement was North Carolina State. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
