Hello,
This is a very interesting thread. I have a question I hope you PhD clinical psych applicants might be able to help me with. My niece applied to very competitive PhD programs (Univ. of Virginia, U Conn, U of Oregon) based on her interest in Attachment Theory. All of the above have faculty working in Attachment Theory.
She also applied to LONG ISLAND UNIVERSITY in Brooklyn, which seems to have a different focus than the above schools.
She was accepted by LIU but does not know a lot about it. She is having a hard time getting over her disappointment of not getting into a more prestigious university, although the more she looks into LIU, the more interesting it looks (and who wouldn't want to live in NJYC?)
Does anyone know more about the clinical PhD program at LIU? They accept 14 out of 2 - 300 applicants.
Thanks!
