Bummed because I got a rejection from Alexian Brothers. 🙁 It wasn't my top choice, but I really did think that I was a good fit for them.

I have enough interviews (9 interviews, 1 open house, and still waiting on 1 of my 16 sites) that I'm hopeful I'll wind up with an internship. However there is a very real possibility that I won't be living with my spouse next year . . .

I haven't heard from them yet...which track did you apply to? Was the rejection personalized? Thanks!

Salem VA, Geisinger - BMed, and Colorado SOM -Primary Care...

Has anyone received a rejection from these sites?

I know that interviews have already gone out, so I am expecting rejections.

Have these people ever heard of closure?! Making me wait for bad news is like beating someone while they're already down. Put me out of my misery and make it swift!:beat:

I haven't heard from Geisinger, either. I am contemplating whether or not it is too early to send them an e-mail about my application.

Congrats! 😀 I got the same offer. Quick question... do you know if this site is still on probation? I am not sure what it means if a site is on probation...

Thanks!

i'm also waiting for my rejection from Colorado SOM- Primary Care...no word yet. thumbdown
 
Personalized invite to James A. Lovell. They offered three dates in January.
 
James Lovell VA (north chicago) emailed personalized invite!! dates are 13th, 18th, and 23rd
 
Has anyone heard from the Youth Opportunity Center in Muncie, IN recently? I have heard nothing so I was wondering if they are still extending invites. Their notification deadline isn't until January 2 but I know several people have already gotten interviews/rejections.
 
Has anyone received an official rejection for Oklahoma U Health Science Center - child track or whatever it was called?
Thanks in advance and congrats to everyone on your interviews!

I'm also waiting on their rejection. Two of my colleagues had telephone invitations from them over a week ago, so I'm pretty sure its a no for me.

Hi, Congrats on your interview!!! I was just curious what time you got your interview email? I still haven't heard anything either way from them. Thanks so much!

Also, UGH I thought I'd feel so much less stressed out today but I still have sites to hear back from so I'm still a nervous wreck. Has anyone heard from:

Minnesota Department of Corrections
Coalinga State Hospital
Psychological Consultations (Chicago)

Thanks!!!

Can people tell me what they've heard regarding Queens Children's? The notification date has already passed, and I haven't heard either way. Is anyone else in the same boat?

I had my interview this week. As far as I know, the directors were each sending personal invites via email and scheduling 1 hour interviews on any day that worked with his schedule and yours. They have an open house toward the end of January, so my guess is that they are continuing the interview process until close to then.

Not sure... guess we'll find out. They are probably on review w APA.
 
Did anyone else on this thread apply to:

UC Irvine CC
Oregon State University CC

They have later notification dates (1/7 & 12/24, respectively), but just wanted to see if anyone has heard anything from these sites.

I applied to UC Irvine CC and have not hear anything either.
 
I have not heard anything from UC Irvine CC or OSU CC. Also waiting to hear from Sharp and UC Santa Barbara CAPS (although I saw someone received an interview invitation via e-mail yesterday).

Re: ahrc, I heard from someone who is there now that apa had issues with their didactics. They are expecting a site visit within the next few months and will hopefully remove the probationary status.

I haven't heard from them either.. I applied to the self-injury track. Has anyone heard anything? I think I saw an invite to the neuro track... and a rejection but it didn't specify the track.

They indicated that the notification date was yesterday and I haven't heard anything. Can't decide if I should still be hopeful or not.
 
Has anyone been officially rejected from this site? I have seen the invites, but no rejections yet?

I received a rejection from the adult track. If you haven't heard anything yet, I hope that means good news is coming your way!

I'm also waiting on Oregon State CC. I know they were/are in the process of hiring one or two staff psychologist(s) as well, so I'm guessing they're pretty swamped.

BTW...I'm also a GSD fan.

Rejections from Ancora and Watson via non personalized email today.
 
Has anyone had a rejection from Citrus Health yet?

I know people got interview offers, but I haven't heard anything and their deadline was yesterday. 😡 I know last year when I emailed the TD 4 days after their deadline she was not so nice and told me if I didn't hear anything I had been rejected. The next day I got an invite for an interview. I must have been on the wait list and wasn't notified. I really want to get my travel plans settled.
 
Has anyone else heard from duPont (acceptance or rejection) today??

I just received a personalized email to interview with them on the 6th or 13th. That's so weird to me since people on this forum received invitations a month ago, and no rejections has gone out...
 
Just received a rejection from Missississippi State Hospital. They get my vote for the worst tone to a rejection letter:

("Admission is, of necessity, competitive. A major goal of our program is the training and professional development of students that are license-eligible upon completion of their doctoral degree. This is best accomplished by selecting applicants who have the educational foundation, clinical training, motivation, and personality characteristics required to successfully initiate and complete an intensive and rigorous pre-doctoral internship program. There is no easy way to break this news to someone....")

Still waiting on a response from AspenPointe, and then it's on to the next hurdle, interviews! Good luck everyone 🙂
 
Expected rejection from Mississippi State Hospital.

Has anyone heard from:
Miami-Dade County
Texas Child Study Center

Just received rejection (Dear applicant) from Texas Child Study
 
What's maybe worse than a rejection? Getting a follow-up email the next day that says "Our system was experiencing difficulties yesterday and we are unsure if all of the notifications were received...." and then proceeds to tell me AGAIN that I am rejected. 🙁 Oh and of course it was my first choice placement. Way to kick em when their down...
 
Got an interview at the Dallas VA!!!!! Apparently they sent my email invite last week but I never got it! They called me within 10 minutes after receiving my email checking in 🙂

So thats it ya'll! 5 total!

Miami VA
UM/Jackson Memorial Hospital
North Texas (Dallas) VA
James Lovell VA
Loma Linda VA

🙂 🙂
 
Appears to be mass unpersonalized email rejection received at 3:00pm MT 🙁
 
Yay! Alexian Brothers interview invite🙂 Now I have 2 APA accredited interviews, and I am done! Thanks to everyone for the support provided on this forum. Though I didn't do as well as I had hoped (2 APA-accredited and 1 non-APA accredited) invites, it has been great to hear about others getting interviews, and to also be able to relate to those who have experienced the same frustrations as I have!

Congratulations to all who have gotten interviews!
 
Just got a personalized invite to the Chillicothe VA, neuro track. Its not APA accredited yet, but I'm pretty pumped about this one.

That's interesting about Regional/Southlake. They gave me one option, as well, but it was a different date (the 9th). I felt annoyed by the tone of the e-mail and the single option.

It did read with a bit of a tone, I agree. The DT emailed me back though and we were able to work out a date - it futzes with my travel schedule a bit but I haven't booked flights yet so it should be okay. 🙄

I heard back from Riverbend and Devereux today after I had emailed DOTs to inquire about my status. Rejections, of course. Still have never heard from MercyFirst but I have moved on now. Glad that is over!

On the "how to pack" topic, I was having similar dilemmas on how to make sure my stuff arrives with me but also how to carry enough clothes for the 9 straight days of travel I will have in Jan. I am thinking I will carry on a bag w/ my laptop/purse items and a small bag with my suit, makeup and absolute essentials for interview days. My suit is a poly-blend and packs with no wrinkles at all! Then I will check another bag with casual clothes, extra interview clothes, books, etc. That way, if my checked luggage gets lost I am still covered for interviews. Thoughts?

Mass email rejection from U of Colorado SOM primary care track.

There aren't even words to describe how much this process has sucked.

I couldn't agree more!!! I just got my rejection from their correctional track so I totally feel your pain!

Also, I'm trying to finish my dang last final paper that's due tonight and I'm getting nowhere because for the last two days I've been stalker checking my email, phone, and this forum. Ugh, I wish this wasn't going on during my finals week :annoyed:
