2012 APPIC Internship Application Thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Just wanted to say that going back (obsessively) through confirmation emails revealed that the Kennedy Krieger Institute (Johns Hopkins) is supposed to do contacts today, as well as The LSU (LAS*PIC) consortium (school-based). The KKI says they email rejections and call for interviews. Louisiana says they email only.

Good luck to everyone! It can't possibly be healthy to keep refreshing my email like a maniac, but I press on...

Pun intended?!? :clap:
 
Has anyone heard back about Boston Consortium's PTSD Women's Health Sciences Division?

Just got a personalized email invite for VAMHCS/UMB Psychology Internship Consortium. I applied to Trauma and Health tracks.

I'm interviewing with the Women's Health Sciences Division and the Child track.
 
Got mass email to interview at UMC Jackson, and personalized email to interview for the Health track at Baltimore VA.

(Very excited, this is following 4 rejections - JMU (POST phone interview, ouch), Lexington VA, Johns Hopkins CC, and Denver Health).

Yup, just got the KKI rejection email- mass email with no salutation just regrets...increasing number of highly qualified applicants. . .and that they cannot send individualized feedback on why applicants are rejected. Aaah well, it was a long shot anyway🙂

Gotta be the first of many invitation! Here's to staying positive:luck:
 
I just received an interview invitation from University of Mississippi Medical Center/V.A. Medical Center Consortium. It did not have my name but appeared to be sent directly to me.

Good luck to everyone today! It's been a busy morning so far.

What track(s) did you apply for, if you don't mind sharing?
 
Just received a personalized interview invite via email from Northeast Florida State Hospital. Two interview dates listed: January 9th and January 23rd. Good luck everyone!

Sorry to hear that dharmapsy. I haven't heard anything from them yet, but yeah, it's one of those overly competitive sites. They have sooo many applicants, and then they do over 150 interviews too and only take a couple people for each track, so it's a long shot no matter what.

I applied to the the Pediatric Psych track and the Child/Fam Therapy & Peds Consult tracks... which ones did you shoot for?
 
Congrats on all the great news today for everyone!!!! Got a personalozed email invite for the Trauma track at the Baltimore Consortium but waiting to hear from Boston. Has anyone received a rejection from there yet???
 
I know everyone has been posting about Jackson Memorial and I got an e-mail for an invite today, too! It definitely was a nice way to start the day.

The student counseling center at University of Miami was my top choice, but I am guessing I am not going to get an interview because there was a lot of talk about phone calls on Monday and Tuesday and I did not get one 🙁.

Congrats to everyone who has been getting interviews!!! 👍
 
To answer a couple of questions, I think the offers all went out at the same time this morning. They are scheduling interviews to occur in a couple of weeks so I don't think they would give some people a scheduling advantage over others by sending out rolling invited. Also, I'm in the south, so I don't think it's a regional thing.
 
Has anyone heard from the Medical Psychology track at the Boston Consortium?

Yes; Boston Consortium emailed me an invitation for Med Psych this morning.
 
Just got a phone invitation to University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Consortium this afternoon!

The University of Oklahoma sites are confusing to me... do you mean the Oklahoma Health Consortium in Norman or the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center in Oklahoma City? And which track?

And, congrats!!! 🙂

Thanks! They're related sites from what I understand. OU Health Sciences in OKC and the General Adult track.

Like others, I got interviews this morning at Boston Consortium (specifically, Substance Abuse Treatment Program at Jamaica Plain) and University of Miami/Jackson Memorial Hospital (no particular track specified). It was a great way to start the day, indeed!

Congrats everyone and good luck!
 
For those who have already called in, what interview dates were they offering? It would be great to have a general idea before calling in. Thanks!
 
received a phone call for an interview, dates are on Thursdays, starting Dec 8th thru Jan something (i forget).

but i know they made some earlier offers last week....just goes to show don't scratch it off until you receive that rejection letter!!

good luck to everyone. 🙂



Anyone hear from the ManhattanVA or VA in DC?

I just received a Mass rejection from Boston Cons 😳(
 
Good luck everyone! This is my second time around and I really appreciate all the useful info! FYI: I just booked a reasonable flight on CheapOAir.👍
 
Received rejections today from the Greater Hartford Clinical Psychology Internship Consortium and the Boston Consortium (Child Psychology and General Mental Health tracks). Bummer 🙁

was the rejection in the form of: if there is an interview slot thats open we may consider you but if not.... or an outright rejection?

just curious on how they are wording these things....

The email from Hartford read, "we regret to inform you that the Consortium will not be considering you for the internship matching program for the upcoming training year." Done and done.

Boston's email said "We will keep your application on file and, if an interview position were to become available, we will contact you...However, to be fair, this does not happen very often." So does not sound very hopeful...pretty final.
 
Mass rejection from Danielson. Boo. 4 rejections, no invites. I'm starting to feel reeeaalllly insecure 🙁
 
Just received a phone call invitation to interview at the Albany Psychology Internship Consortium (for dates between Dec 19-22). That certainly helps to offset the sting from two rejections earlier today!
 
Invitation to the Loma Linda VA via mass email! Interview dates are Dec 20 or Jan 10. Telephone interviews available on those dates as well.

Congrats! 🙂 When did you apply and did they say it was rolling invites?
 
Congrats on the excellent interview day, so much good news on the board. 🙂

The Ottawa Hospital was supposed to send out notifications yesterday, but I haven't heard either way (invite or rejection). Is anyone is the same boat? 😕
