2013 APPIC Internship Application Thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
i have only heard from 1 VA (most of my sites are VA's). most of the faculty for internship programs has f/t clinical/admin/rsh and then doing internship is an added thing they aren't paid for. i think when they have time to do it can vary so widely and the amount of flexibility sites give faculty during this time can vary, it's really hard to tell
Kyril, thats a good point. I hadn't thought about that!
 
Personalized email invite to Minneapolis VA for an interview on January 7!
Me too! Although they gave me a January 4th interview date. I hope that sites don't continue to offer only 1 interview day as an option, otherwise, I won't be able to make them all! Anxiety-provoking!

Well, it looks like my top site is out. I haven't heard anything from them. 🙁

It's weird that they only offer one date--I wonder what they do if you already have an interview scheduled for that day?

Well, I think if they haven't rejected you yet, just hold tight. They're sending personalized emails with specific interview dates...which I assume is because of rotation preferences and supervisor availability. Although, yeah, I have no idea what I would have to do if I couldn't make it that day. Hopefully they would offer another option.
 
I agree with clinpsychjack. If it's only been 15 minutes since the other people heard, there's probably still a chance that you might hear too.

I agree--the game ain't over til you get the rejection email!
 
I guess UC Irvine is doing rolling notifications, because I just got a rejection email. Sigh.
 
Received my first news - interview at Mass General's Child Track. Very excited - and wishing everyone else good news soon too!
 
I also just heard heard back from UC Irvine with a personalized rejection. At least now I don't have to wait til January to hear. 2 for 2 rejections, hoping to hear some good news soon 🙂
 
Man, I've been stuck on hearing from two sites for the past 2+ weeks. Looks like I applied to the wrong sites!

Thanks, but it's been two hours, so I think I'm out. I hope they send rejection e-mails soon so that I know for sure.

Congratulations! It's always nice to get good news to cancel out the bad!
 
Generic rejection email from Brown Child Track just now. First notification, and hearing of others notifying of interviews. 🙁
 
Hi, everyone! I have been a lurker for over 4 years- before I even started my program.
I received a personal e-mail for an interview with ANKA Behavioral Health (Concord, CA) on 11/20.
Group interviews were set for December (?) and January 4th and 11th, morning and afternoon.

It is so exciting to hear that so many people are getting interviews!
Congrats to everyone with interviews so far, and congrats to everyone who still have interview notifications to come.
I wish you all the very, very best!
We've made it this far, and we are all going to make it past the finish line!
(Hooray!)
 
Finally!!! Interview invite from Brown for the Health Psychology/Behavioral Medicine Clinical track and the Integrated Primary Care Clinical-Research track!!!!!! I can finally breathe again!
 
I just received an interview notification from the Nebraska Consortium for Boys Town. It begins!
 
Interview invite from Brown's Neuro Track! Notified today via generic "Intern Applicant" e-mail.
 
Just wanted to kindly request that when posting in the forum about interview notifications, please include site name, track (if applicable), email/phone call, personalized/generic, and interview dates offered (if known). Thanks!
 
Invitation to interview at Brown University- Pediatric Specialty in the Child Clinical Track, via generic email. Interview dates: January 4, 7, 9, 15, and 18
 
Finally!!! Interview invite from Brown for the Health Psychology/Behavioral Medicine Clinical track and the Integrated Primary Care Clinical-Research track!!!!!! I can finally breathe again!


whoo hoo! it is an amazing program, you should be proud!
 
For UCSD/VA people- did they say anything track specific in the email?
My notification was by phone, but there was no mention of track. I personally had listed the trauma and the specialty mental health tracks as my top 2.
 
Hey All,
Just received a generic (dear my name, but otherwise seemed like a form letter) email invite to interview for the Munroe-Meyer Institute program at the Nebraska Internship Consortium. The interview date is January 11, with an open house the day before.
Good Luck to all!

Same here! Finally, the deafening silence comes to an end!!! :banana:
 
Just got an offer for an interview for Munroe-Meyer vie generic email. Wa not offered interview at Boystown.

Good luck all!
 
To be more specific I got an interview for the rural integrated care program, and I'm curious how many of the 143 interviews Nebraska offered last year were for the rural program
 
I wonder how many sites are REALLY doing this whole "rolling notification" thing. I wonder if it has to do with when people submit their application. Would people be willing to do that? When you post an interview offer/rejection could you post:
1) Name of site
2) Name of track, if applicable
3) How you were notified
4) Dates offered
5) When you applied

Congrats to all who have received interviews! 🙂
 
For what it's worth, here are mine. I think the dates were already listed before.

Houston (MEDVAMC), applied 11/1, interview notification 11/20 (e-mail)
Oklahoma Health Science Consortium (VA track), applied 11/4, notification 11/16 (e-mail)
Pittsburgh VA (general track) - applied 11/5, notification 11/20 (e-mail)
Vanderbilt Consortium (VA track), applied 11/5 , interview notification 11/17 (e-mail)
Missouri Health Sciences Consortium (VA track), applied 11/13 , interview notification 11/21 (phone)

Congrats! I too received an emailed form letter with an interview offer for January 11. Maybe we will see each other there 🙂 Mine was for the ASD program track.

Good Luck to all!

Generic rejection email from Kennedy Krieger peds neuropsych tracks.
 
First rejection at KKI in Baltimore. It was generic, email. I applied to the Behavioral Management/Neuropsychology and Child & Family Therapy/Neuropsychology tracks specifically, but the rejection letter didn't have them mentioned anywhere on it.
Hope someone else had better luck!
 
Generic Interview invite from KKI. I applied to the ABA track however this particular email did not specify the tracks you will be interviewing with (if you applied to multiple) nor did it provide your specific interview dates. Interviews will be on Mondays through Thursdays starting January 7th through January 31st. Each rotation will be given at least two possible interview dates to choose from (email to come!).

So Excited!!
