Hi everyone,
I've been waitlisted at two major universities and things are looking quite grim considering it is Apr 4...but I have also been accepted to Alliant International University (California School of Professional Psychology). I've been accepted into their Ph.D. program in Clinical...I was wondering if anyone could share their thoughts on getting a degree from there (what are job prospects like)? Since this is a free-standing school, debt will be extremely high...Will it be manageable? Since this is not a major university, will I still have teaching opportunities? I am extremely disappointed because I really wanted to go to one of the schools I was waitlisted at...I feel extremely disappointed...I would also like to post my vital stats for advice on perhaps taking research positions (taking time off) and beefing up my application. I really need advice as to what to do!
I have a 3.95 gpa overall, 3.97 gpa in Psychology (highest honors track)...I am still in undergrad (finishing this coming June). 3 poster presentations, senior thesis in social psych (my undergrad university doesn't have a clinical division)...so I've held RA positions in Social, Dev. and Cog Psych, internship at girls group home...Any advice welcome!
