Good luck everyone!!! Remember that the internship deficit has made enormous strides in the past few years and we're likely in pretty good shape. Also, last year 90% of applicants matched to one of their top 4 sites!
Dare I say it? Dissertation?
Haha, don't you dare! I think I have that lying around somewhere... . Besides my day job, I'm not working on anything until Monday. I've set my limits!
I took people out to breakfast or dinner while I was there. If that hadn't been possible, I would have bought a small snack or flowers and mailed it.
Not even! Like 39 hours.
From APPI I believe.
Yeah, the email will come from APPIC. The internship site doesn't know who they have until tomorrow morning, either.
Yeah pretty sure it's from APPI with a phone call from the training director sometime from 11am to 1pm. Also my for folks that might not know this, according to our DCT, the APPIC email often hits MUCH earlier than 10:00am, as in 7:30-8:30ish.
Oops probably so. I conflate the two in my mind. But definitely not the sites training director.
I cannot believe someone submitted 52 applications. That is crazy and must have been insanely expensive.
Last year it was 76.
I am glad to hear you matched somewhere that is a good fit. Submitting that many applications must have been a daunting task!

That's a great point. My sites typically had 2 to 5 openings for what I hoped to do with 3 openings being most common.
Hi, how was your interview experience like? I'm applying there this year too.
Your username and this post.Yes, writing 46 personalized cover letters was very tedious as I had to "study" each site and read all of their brochures. I ended up getting 20 interviews and it was very crazy hectic and expensive. In the end, I spent over $5k (that I did not have) on application fees and travel expenses. If I could do it again, I WOULD NOT apply to that many sites. I highly discourage anyone from doing that. I admit I completely freaked out at the prospect of not matching and went nuts with applications. Then when the invites started rolling in, I said yes to everyone and did everything I could to make it work. In the end it did work out for me but it was very stressful and expensive. I ended up ranking 18 sites and got #5 so that goes to show I interviewed at a lot of places that I didn't need to. I think if you have 5-10 interviews, you have a high chance of matching. Don't go crazy like me.
On the bright side, I racked up lottss of mileage points.
