2013 APPIC Internship Application Thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I got an interview at Univeristy of Tennessee Health Science Center in Memphis today... I dont see it on the first page so I thought I would post... I got a personal phone call and they scheduled the interview for me (they had a lot of availability)
 
I saw that someone got a rejection from SUNY Upstate Child Track today, but has anyone gotten one for the Adult Track? I am kind of anticipating one, but haven't heard anything either way and I know they did send out invites on more than one occasion. Just curious.
 
Personalized email invitation to a phone interview at UT-Austin Counseling Center!! Dates include 1/7, 1/8, 1/10, 1/11, and more dates the following week (can't remember from the online scheduling system). Woot!

On another note, for places where everyone received multiple interviews at one site, are you all counting those as one interview total or separate interviews? Just thinking in terms of ranking
Click to expand...

I think this depends. Do these different interviews have different match numbers for the tracks? If so, then you rank them separately. If the site only has one match number, then you only rank it once. This information is from what I understand from students who went through this process last year.
 
Most generic email rejection of all time (I should know at this point I guess) from The Institute of Living, just letting me know that all interview offers have been made. No elaboration, though I guess it wasn't needed.

Memphis VA. IT is close of business on a Friday. And I have not heard from you.😡

It's agonizing....

Has anyone heard (yay or nay) from Memphis VA??
Click to expand...

I have not heard from them. Even though it is close of business, it still may come tonight. My notification for Bay Pines VAMC came at nearly 10pm on a Friday night.
 
Generic rejection with attachment from Baylor College of Medicine Adolescent and Adult Track.
 
Very nice, thoughtful general rejection from the VA there. It was so nice it really took the sting out of the rejection. I interviewed there last year and was so impressed with the program. To anyone fortunate to interview there good luck!
 
Non-personalized e-mail invitation for phone interviews. The e-mail said they will contact us within the next two weeks with interview times for us to rank.
 
Thank you for letting us know about Citrus. I wonder if it means that everyone who has not heard from them yet is rejected?

Are other people also having more rejections than expected and way fewer invitations than they exptected?

It's been hard for me to stay positive lately!
 
Personalized, wonderful email from UMDNJ-Newark. I am thrilled after my billionth rejection to actually get good news from them! 😍

Yup, I'm in the same boat. I'm trying to keep hope alive by focusing on the interviews I do have. It's been said here a lot and I need to hear it often too...some people get several interviews but still don't match, some people get only a few interviews and end up matching. It's been my mantra the last few days.🙂

I am in the middle.... six interviews and waiting on one more; however, I did think that I would at least have two to three more. Most ppl are like you are in an ideal spot, but I am just going to put my best foot forward during my interviews and pray for the best!
 
Generic e-mail rejection from UC Riverside... E-mail titled "APPIC Interview Notification..." It got my hopes up, only to get smashed. Jerks. :annoyed:
 
Still waiting on San Bernardino County and Children's Institute... just got rejected from UC Santa Cruz

Congrats! I know how that feels 😉
This whole process is so demoralizing. Everyone applying to an internship has already passed their qualifiers. The final phase of training should be guaranteed to all students who pass their qualifiers, one would think 😕

Still waiting on 6 sites but they have notification dates on the 15th so maybe ill hear tomorrow... However, I was wondering if anyone has heard anything either way about Sharp Healthcare? Their notification date is today and I am finding it really hard to just sit and wait until 5!!!
Click to expand...

Just got a rejection from Sharp, at least they let me know today
 
IYC-St. Charles sent me a letter stating they would be contacting me next week to set up interview

Harris County Juvenile Probation (Houston) January 23rd

Can I ask which track this was for?

I applied to the Forensic Track but they didn't mention anything about tracks in the email. Good luck if you're waiting to hear from them!

still waiting on texas valley coastal bend va and pacific island va and that infamous Memphis we are all desperately waiting on, but i have 7 so i am happy with that number.
 
Has anyone heard from West Virginia University (Morgantown)'s counseling center? One of the last ones I'm waiting to hear from... sending positive thoughts to everyone!!
 
From about 4:15 pm central to 4:25 pm I received almost 50 email messages. They were all automated appicas.org messages each notifying that I had successfully e-submitted my applications to specific designated sites. The designations were correct in that I had e-submitted these applications weeks ago (and received the single automated email thanking me for each successful e-submission), but it was like some malfunction or something. Did this happen to anyone else? Should I contact APPIC?

That's pretty strange. I didn't get that. Maybe you should contact them

I have not heard anything from them yet. Still waiting on them and a few others...
 
No go in a friendly, non personalized email from UCSC. Still waiting on 3, which have notification deadlines from the 18th through Jan 10th (??!!?!?)
My first interview is Wednesday... Wish me luck!!
 
Invite for Texas Department of Aging and Disability Services
Generic rejection from Travis County Juvenile Probation
Generic rejection from VA Alaska
Generic rejection from Baylor CoM in attachment
 
Personalized interview invitation...

Is it just me or are sites sending out interview invitations promising to contact you soon with the dates? Interesting...I'd like to buy flights next week. I hope they're prompt with the follow up!

Still waiting on:

North Carolina DOC
Lakeview Neurorehabiliation Center
Kane County Diagnostic Center (likely a rejection)
Colorado Department of Corrections
Ancora Psychiatric Center (likely a rejection)
LA DMH (likely a rejection)
 
Not a word today from a single site... 🙁
I'm sorry to be driving everyone nuts by asking, but I haven't seen word on the forum about these sites.
Any of you lovely quiet people or lurkers having any luck?

Has anyone heard from Yes or No from:
RAMS (National Asian American Psychology Training Center)
Sutter Center for Psychiatry (Northern California Psychology Internship Consortium)

Or from any of these sites with a later date:
Children's Hospital and Research Center Oakland
UCSF Infant-Parent Program
University of California, Davis
University of San Francisco
CAPS Fullerton
UCSF Child Trauma Research Center (Their application date has been extended to Monday, but I saw 1 person with an interview... any rejections?)
 
Interviews:

University of North Dakota: general email invitation, offers either in person or phone interviews and they need to be scheduled next week

University of Northern Colorado: personalized email invitation, phone interviews that are scheduled online for the week of Jan 7-Jan 11.

Rejections:

UC Santa Cruz
UC Riverside
U Washington Seattle

I find it really interesting how you can be qualified for some college counseling centers but not others. I know each one is individual and has its own criteria, but it just seems so random.

Still waiting to hear from

CSU Northridge
San Bernardino Co.
U San Francisco CC
 
11 invites, 10 rejections, 5 to go ... best of luck to everyone! My heart goes out to the victims and their families of the CT incident. Sad sad sad.

I haven't heard from USF, but I know that their notification date is Friday, December 21st.
That seems so far away!
I hope that we both hear sooner than that!
 
I am waiting on RAMS too! No news yet.

Hey, I just started a 2013 CAPIC Internship thread for those of you who are going through that process as well. Hope we can be as communicative about site responses during that process as well. Good luck!

Regarding Kane County Diagnostic Center, I received my rejection in the mail today... Like paper mail lol I hadn't checked the mail in a week but it was postmarked 12/12. Odd way of sending out rejections!
