Quantitative_Psychology Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 (edited) Has anyone outside of clinical psychology heard from Arizona State? As far as I know, it's been dead in the quantitative area and it seems dead in the other areas as well!

psycnerd01 Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Has anyone heard from Harvard Developmental Psyc department? I e-mailed them on Monday this week and received a generic reply that said applications are presently under review and not all departments offer interviews. But I think that developmental psyc faculty have always conducted Skype interviews (according to my search results on tgc up until last year), which seem to have had always been scheduled during the first week of Feb. each year. I've applied to 12 developmental psyc programs and been rejected by 11 of them almost for sure... I am suffocating in this waiting game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last few years' result updates weren't very clarifying either. Quantitative_Psychology 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georginazhou Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 I saw a bunch of people got their rejection letter from UCSD today, and someone posted accepted a few days ago. I did not get an interview, nor an rejection at this point. And I saw their open house is on Feb 1-2, which is a week ago. what does this mean to my application? waitlisted? or does school sent out rejection in different batches?

Hi Thank you so much I am also waiting for a positive news. Also I think you should mail the admission committee asking for the status of you application. They are very prompt in replying to the queries and they will let you know the exact status. Wait for 2 days if they are not replying back then go ahead and mail the professor. All the best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was such an amazing experience and was well worth it (regardless of outcome). I'm trying to be patient, but... How's everyone else doing? Hello! I had an amazing and super fun interview experience last weekend at Kent State! Faculty, current students, and prospective students were super nice and there was never any awkwardness from my interactions with people. I'm sure that this is said at every interview/visiting weekend-these interviews are mostly about how well you mesh/connect with your POI and the department, because the fact that you were invited means that they want you as a student for the most part. We were told that admissions decisions would come out in a couple of weeks , but my POI emailed and said her decision would come a bit sooner. I'm excited to hear from this school! I have three more interviews this weekend and next, and I'm hoping that I have the same incredible experience that I had at Kent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CP&PBZ Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 As acceptances are coming in, try not to hold onto more than one acceptance at a time. If you are accepted to two places and you know you will go to one over the other if it comes down to it; decline the one you know you won’t go to. That way individuals on the waitlist can potentially get a spot (because for them that may be the only school they haven’t been rejected from or is their ‘last hope). I understand if maybe you haven’t visited campuses for some and want to wait to see how the fit feels during visiting day or for funding details ( I would too); but just keep it in mind if you have two or more acceptances. motherofdragons23 and rnf13 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psychedelic2 Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Has anybody experienced a group interview? I have one coming up and am unsure what to expect. Also, if this question was asked elsewhere, please let me know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, if this question was asked elsewhere, please let me know! I am sure it's different for different programs, but my experience has been that the group interview is more of a round table discussion. I sat with the other applicants and a couple of faculty members, and it was a chance to ask questions. I enjoyed it because I got to hear answers to questions I wouldn't have thought to ask. It was a little awkward though because we all felt like we needed to save the "good questions" for our one on one interviews later in the day.

PokePsych Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 That moment when you have a skype interview with a dreamsupervisor + dream school and you get so excited you can barely make a coherent sentence and manage to spill coffee over yourself. I sometimes hate myself for real. H1ppocampus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SarahmKahl Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 I tried applying for a social psych PhD and getting this gut feeling that it is not my year... Rejected: Syracuse, UMass Amherst, Tulane, NYU Waitlisted: KU, CUNY Still waiting on: Texas A&M, UT Austin, UC Davis, Northwestern, University at Albany What do you guys do if your waitlisted? Should you still email them saying thank you and you're excited to be on the waitlist or something, or just let it be? Going to have to regroup pretty soon...

I'm also wondering about how to handle being waitlisted. One program told me right away that I'm a middle alternate. Another didn't give me any information about where I stand on the list. Is it appropriate to email the second program and ask where I am on the list? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw one invitation for Social at UNC on the results page, but that's it. I interviewed last week (a week later than the "interview weekend") for the Developmental Science/Psychology track, and have not heard anything yet.

psycphd Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 It's been 12 days since my interview weekend with a program and I have had no word back yet about a decision. When my POI answered my thank you email she said "the faculty are set to meet and discuss candidates" and she "should be back in touch soon with a decision." I have read other posts that make it seem like longer waits = rejection/waitlist. Am I reading too much into this? I really love this program so it's hard to stay calm and not over think everything. I was the only one my POI invited out of the 6 of us interviewing, but the program usually only accepts around 2-3 students. I would appreciate any personal experiences/advice!
