I'm also waiting to hear back from UMass Boston too, so if someone can private message with any POI(s) that have sent out invites, that would be great. Thank you!

Hello everyone, interviews be rolling! I was wondering if anyone has heard from:
Marquette University (Clinical)
Penn State University (Cognitive Psychology)
UT Austin (Clinical)
St. Louis University (Clinical)
Drexel University (Clinical)
University of Arizona (Clinical)
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (Cognitive Neuroscience)
University of Utah (Clinical)
USC (Clinical Science)

Some are not clinical, I understand. But any word from these?? Driving me nuts that it's almost the end of February and I haven't heard from any. I'm hoping no news is good news, but it seems that Marquette, UT Austin, and University of Utah are out on GradCafe...

No. Our program has not. They have a date and everything just have not sent out invitations.
Also, I think the last invitation I received was somewhere mid Feb. Good luck!

Hey so I've got an update for the University of Maryland-College Park clinical psychology PhD program for those of you that applied. The psych department said that all interview invitations have been extended and interviews are set for this week and possibly next week. For some reason I was still kinda holding out hope for this one since I haven't seen anything on here or TGC lol

Anyone hear from Harvard or Teacher's College both clinical programs? If you have, who's your POI? thanks!
 
has anyone heard from Ohio State clinical since the in-person interviews?
 
Has anyone heard from University of Washington Seattle's clinical child program?
 
Called the counseling psychology department at Arizona State University to ask if all of their interview invitations have already been extended and was told that "they're still working on that." There's still hope! Someone posted on TGC that interviews will be on the weekend of Feb. 19.

I had an initial phone interview, which would then determine whether you got an in person interview- I never heard back though and that was a couple weeks ago. Not sure if I should give up hope- anyone had an in person interview at Harvard?

I'm in the same boat as you. Initial chat via email about research interest overlap. Sent research proposal that seemed to go over well per reply email-said would be in touch but haven't heard back yet about official interview invite...I'm thinking they may still be figuring out funding. From prior application cycles on TGC seems like it takes them a bit of time. That's my hope, anyway. Keepin' the faith!
 
It looks like LaSalle sent out invites today. Does anyone know if it was a general, mass email or if they heard from their POI directly?

So the counseling psych phd at the Teacher's College is different from the clinical psych phd at the Teacher's College but they are both APA accredited so both of them adhere the science-practitioner model and train students to be both clinicians and researchers. So the counseling psych program has a clinical focus in that they train you in being a psychotherapist as well as a researcher but it's not clinical focused in that it's not a clinical psychology program. I hope that answered your question, but let me know if it didn't.
 
Harvard clinical psych doesn't have traditional interview days. Visits to campus aren't required in order to be accepted. PM if you applied and want more info.

For those wondering about the Clinical Psychology program at the Teacher's College, I saw that someone had been invited for an interview there on TGC. So it looks like they're starting to send out invites.
