In case you are all like me and compulsively checking this thread now that it's January, I thought you could use some humor to temporarily distract you from the anxiety.

If you haven't seen this website, it's pretty funny (what we have to look forward to):

I saw that on gradcafe, someone posted they had an phone interview/invite for Northwestern Feinberg today? Has anyone received anything similar, or have received any interview invites?

Edit: nvm, I see that this is posted on page 1.
Good luck to the people who got the invite!

I saw on Gradcafe that someone got a pre-interview phone call with their POI from University of Houston. Did anyone else get this? Do you know if this is mandatory before receiving an actual interview invite?

Hi! I also applied to the PhD Program at UH and saw the same thing. I'm glad to know I'm not the only one concerned! Please let me know if you find out anything!

Agreed. Has anyone else heard from Feinberg? It looks like in previous years they've extended invites over a few days. Crossing my fingers still!

What were the details surrounding the U Vermont invite? Why are no dates listed?

I always post all the information people send me via PM. In this case the person didn't share the interview date, so hopefully someone else will post it soon.

I also got an invite from them on 1/4. It seemed like they might have separate interview days for each research emphasis. I was invited for the Clinical Neuropsychology and Behavioral Neuroscience Emphasis on Feb 15th. Maybe other emphasis invites are going out later?

Thanks for the info. I didn't apply to those emphases, so there's still hope!
 
I checked my online application earlier and it still said under review. Maybe the interview was for a different campus.

I see on Grad Cafe someone got an invite back on 12/13 from Yeshiva's PsyD, but it says School-Clinical. I applied to clinical. Anyone else hear from them?

🙁 I applied to the exact same concentrations and haven't heard anything back so I assume this a rejection. Nevertheless, congratulations on the interview, and best of luck to you!

I saw on gradcafe that someone received an invite yesterday for a different interview date. Not sure what emphasis that was for but I would still hold out for a couple more days!
