FYI... For those still waiting on the Jesse Brown VA in Chicago, I just checked their APPIC page, and the interview notification date is listed as 12/17. Not sure if the date was always the 17th (looks like the page was modified on 12/5), but at least now I know when the notification will likely arrive.

Personalized phone call from Rutgers/RWJ/UBHC...adolescent school mental health track @ 12:20 this afternoon! Hope exists! Keep your phone battery full and refresh those inboxes!
Still waiting on St. Luke's child track and Cambridge Health Alliance. Also, what's with the Institute for Child and Family Health letting us know about interview dates at a later time? This is making scheduling flights impossible. So frustrated...
There's a version of that by Postmodern Jukebox that is also on my list. Also Walk Off the Earth's version of Somebody That I Used to Know. Which feels weirdly appropriate, too, in its own way, for the rejections.
I believe that's what they updated (or one of the things). Good luck tomorrow! This is the last one I'm waiting on...
I'm still waiting on Cambridge Health Alliance as well... and two others. I did receive one interview offer today from Rogers Memorial Hospital. I heard that CHA had started notifying. Hoping it is on a rolling basis as they are finishing reviewing apps today. Has anyone actually received a rejection from there yet?
Has anyone heard from the Brooklyn VA recently?
I haven't heard anything from Cambridge Health Alliance, Institute of Living (adult), The Village for Families and Children, or University of Houston- Clear Lake (notification date 12/19).
Any word, either invitations or rejections, from the following sites:
Applied Psychology Group of Texoma
Central TX Internship in Clinical & Forensic Psychology
Texas Juvenile Justice Department
Thanks in advance!

I received confirmation for Kaiser SD 12/5. Hope this helps.
Just want to reiterate the importance of not scheduling your top choice as a first interview. My first interview was so-so but they have gotten better with each site. It's so much easier to be yourself if you're not fumbling over how to explain an answer.
Also- remember to always have a good comeback. Example: If someone was to insult your overeating of seafood during lunch by saying, "The ocean called and they're running out of shrimp!", you might say.."oh yeah?! Well the jerk-store called and they're running out of you!" That ones good but also risky as it may be countered with, "Well you're their best seller!" The counter to that counter is not known.

Scratch that I just received a personalized rejection letter from The Village.
Has anyone who is interviewing at Southern Illinois University UCC received a friend request from them on Skype? I spoke with the director last Tuesday to schedule my interview and she said to look out for a friend request from them on Skype within the coming days. I have yet to receive anything and am starting to worry I might have missed it somehow.
Where did you hear that CHA has started contacting people and that they are finishing reviewing applications today? Their notification date was yesterday, which clearly hasn't played out... I am still waiting to hear back from them, and it seems that no one has heard from them yet..
I received one, but my interview is tomorrow...I'm not sure when it was sent.
I got PMs about it as I had posted that I was waiting to hear. One person received notification on Friday and someone else today, so that leads me to believe that are in the process of finishing reviewing things.
Thanks! Mine isn't until Jan 8 so maybe that's why they haven't sent it yet. Good luck on your interview tomorrow!!!
Also: It's not a lie if you believe it!
Also, important to keep in mind that there are different tracks. So, it is possible that those individuals who have been contacted applied for a different track... At least, I am telling myself that..
I'm also waiting on the Applied Psychology Group.
Well, one of them was for the same track.
So you're saying that personal emails are being sent by Cambridge Health Alliance, not mass emails...
Which track?
If I recall correctly, I believe the counter to that counter is, "Well, I slept with your wife!", though I don't think this move is generally advised.
I would be worried that APPIC accidentally submitted my application to the wrong site! Is the site number for The Guidance Center in Flagstaff close numerically to a site that you intended to apply to?
generic rejection (mass?) from henry ford health sciences center. Still waiting on 2 more.... arg! 😵
Child track.
That still gives me hope then!
I haven't been paying attention to whether my rejections are personalized or not- most seem like mass emails. I had a string of nothing but acceptances at first, then weeks later rejections- so a nice balance. Rejections this week were for Philadelphia VA (recent APA accreditation must have skyrocketed applications received), Memphis VA, North Bronx Healthcare, Tripler AMC. But today I got an interview invite by phone to a site I already had an interview at. Realized I have invites for 2 tracks, held on separate days, which means 2 trips to same place. But not complaining 🙂
I applied to the Adult/Child Outpatient track. Hope that means there's still hope..
Has anyone heard from Loma Linda VA?
No more hope here. Just got my generic rejection to CHA.
Same 🙁 Now just waiting on St. Luke's
Four of my classmates here in AZ also got the same rejection email from them. I believe they're a part of the AZ Training Consortium, which I applied to, but did not specify that particular site.
Has anyone heard a rejection from Oregon State UCC? I know they have already sent out invitations, but wondering if anyone received rejections? I WOULD HATE if they waited till the 24 of December to tell us - "Hey so guess what, we are not interviewing you. Happy Holidays!"
I've heard nothing as well. I'm assuming it's a rejection... but I second this, "MERRY CHRISTMAS EVE, we have no interest in you!"
Yeah, me too. :/ Oh well.
Phone call for interview at University of Oregon! Email with times to follow!
Really excited about this one. Woot! Woot!
That bring all my apps to a close. Glad to be done with the anticipation. Hope all of you get responses soon.

Has anyone received a rejection from Nassau or IOL? I'm sure I'm not getting an interview but it'd be nice to just get the rejection over with and focus on the interview I have.
Alright, call me weak but I couldn't stand it! I emailed those sites that had a 12/15 deadline to inquire about my status...I had two just hanging out, not responding either way. Does this make me weak, SDN? Hopefully this won't make me look like a pushy butthole but it was getting tedious!
Anyone hear from Manhattan Psychiatric Center?
I am still waiting on IOL.
I'm getting close to doing the same.
