2012 APPIC Internship Application Thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Good question! It did not say, but I applied to the TEACCH and CIDD tracks.
I'd bet that you'll be interviewing for both. I got a very similar invitation offer from them last year after applying for the same two tracks and after several e-mails (nobody seemed to know which track(s) I'd be interviewing for so it took a while to get to the right person), I was informed that it would be for both tracks. On interview day, the majority of the interviewees were interviewing for multiple tracks. I certainly can't guarantee it, but last year it *seemed* like if you were offered an interview, you interviewed for every track you applied to.
 
Just got a call for an invite for MGH/Harvard neuropsych track!! 😀 I am still shaking w/ excitement!

I know I saw that LSU health sciences Adult track went out but has anyone heard about the other two tracks? Thanks.:xf:
 
Just received an expected rejection (mass email) from McLean. I'm 0 for 3 for the ivy league sites, but 3 for 3 for the "doable" sites! Hehe.
 
Congrats! 🙂

Would you mind letting us know when you applied? I know the deadline for apps wasn't until today.

I applied a couple weeks ago (maybe around Nov. 8th or 9th?), so I suspect they'll be rolling out more interview invites in coming days or weeks.
 
Just got a mass email interview offer to Atascadero!! Interview dates are January 6, 13, and 20th.
 
I received interview offers today via e-mail from Pine Rest Christian Mental Health Services in Grand Rapids, MI and the Institute of Human Adjustment in Ann Arbor, MI!
 
Yup but I haven't heard either way. I'm expecting a rejection based on me being a poor apparent fit for them.


Also, mass rejection email from McLean. 15% rejection, 85% to go.

By "poor fit" I'm guessing you mean atheist? Lol, jk. They sent out rejections on the 30th last year so was just checking it out. Good luck to you! I've had two rejections and no invites yet as well. :xf:

Haha, I like their focus on self-reflection/introspection and spirituality/community but ... I like CBT. 😛 Pretty much every other aspect of their training is the opposite of my previous experiences, so I'm expecting the rejection but gave it a shot.

Ahh I see. You never know!

It's one of my top ones (as you can probably tell by my screen name and obsessiveness) 😉 keep me updated!
 
Yup! Matched to my Phase II top choice and I absolutely love it here. I was telling my advisor just a week or two ago that I'm actually happy I didn't match in Phase I as this site was well worth the wait and such a great fit. (My advisor and I had actually debated about applying to this site in Phase I but eventually decided against it. Now, neither of us can remember what the reasoning was for not applying :laugh:) It was certainly very very tough not matching in Phase I initially, but now I'm quite thankful for it and it definitely worked out for the best! Are you giving it a go this year? If so, best of luck!!! :luck::luck::luck:

Yep, giving it another go this year 🙂 And thank you!
 
Glad to see I'm not the only one who didn't receive the crazy-making "We got your app!" email from the Boston Consortium this year. Definitely wondering if they'll still be sending out interview decisions tomorrow...

I was looking back through their brochure and saw that they listed November 30 as their interview notification date. I am eager to hear...
 
Just got a rejection from them. What a way to bring me down from an interview earlier. UGH. Hate this.
 
Generic email rejection from the Baltimore Internship Consortium. Today is full of bad news, blah 😛
 
Rejected from my top choice site 🙁 Baltimore VA Consortium..O well, not meant to be!
 
Another rejection a few minutes later from Univ of Miami/Jackson Memorial Hospital...GREAT dayyyyy 🙁 here's to better ones coming!
 
Rejection email from TD - no subject, no name or dear applicant either.

Sorry about the rejection 🙁! Can you tell us if it was a mass email and when you applied? I forget if there were specific tracks.
 
Central Virginia Consortium sent invites today. It was a generic email offering interviews on either Jan 20th or 23rd. I have not been letting myself get too upset about not hearing from sites until tomorrow. This was a nice surprise, and much better than the way I started off last year (with multiple rejections before getting an interview...)
 
I remember that we had to rank the tracks and I put Rehab Psyc and Medical Psychology as my first too. It was a generic email, no "dear applicant" or anything....Good luck!

I know I saw that LSU health sciences Adult track went out but has anyone heard about the other two tracks? Thanks.:xf:

For the individual who heard from LSU's adult track, was the email personalized or a mass email? Thanks!
 
Columbia - Child track started calling people for interviews last night.

St. Luke's - Child track started calling people today.
 
I'm curious about this too - I haven't heard from them (no rejection, but no interview either).

I'm in the same boat and hoping that not hearing is a good thing right now! No interview offers for the CBT track have come across the thread so I am optimistic.
 
My understanding was that it was personalized. Good luck!!

Thanks! It's hard to stay optimistic when a site's already sent out invites, but I'm trying to stay positive!

Good luck to you too!
 
Sorry for the rejection to the Baltimore Consortium. Which track did you apply to if you don't mind sharing and was it a mass email?

Sure! It seemed like a mass email, and I applied for the health and general tracks. Good luck!! They said they received 285 applications , yikes!
 
I also received the same email rejections from University if Mississippi and University of Maryland, and I applied to the Neuropsych tracks at those sites.
 
Thanks! It's hard to stay optimistic when a site's already sent out invites, but I'm trying to stay positive!


Good luck to you also! I've definitely seen invites for other tracks but, for some sites, the different tracks do things at different times. Have you seen/heard about CBT track invites going out? I think there is still hope, for sure :luck:...
 
Someone from my program received an email rejection from FSU counseling center.

I received mass email rejection UM/Jackson.
