Awesome! Did you heard back about the date confirmation yet? I emailed back literally one minute after I got the email but still have not heard back. I am worried cause I already have interview in Arkansas on the 11th, so I can only do the 18th :/

Congrats!! I just got a rejection from there, haha. First response and first rejection!! Did anyone apply to the Child and Family Trauma Track (the one that is currently non-accredited)? I am wondering if that email will also come tonight or any time soon, or if I should assume my rejection to the behavioral/neuropsychology program also applies to the trauma track.

SO rough XD I just got my dates a few minutes ago! I believe individual supervisors are sending them out so it's all happening in waves
 
For sites that send out invites via the phone, do these sites, historically, make all calls in one day? Or are calls spread out over a few days? Wondering if I can/should mark some off my list. :/

Would anyone who got an interview to UCSF mind sharing if they got an interview to any other track besides the Child Clinical Interventions and Assessment Cluster? Wondering if any other tracks went out. No need to reveal which track you got and feel free to pm, thanks!

Yayyy congrats!!!
I also got my subsequent email and forgot to be helpful 🙂

Track(s): ABA, BMC, Peds
Dates: 1/10, 1/15, 1/24
 
So I’m curious- for the notification dates listed for a site- is that the date they will extend interview offers only (and not rejections too)? Or does that mean they will also send rejections that day? Because one site had yesterday as it’s notification date so i thought I would at least hear something either way but I didn’t. Although it did send out offers yesterday.

Per APPIC guidelines, they should be sending both. Not necessarily at the same time, but certainly by the deadline they reported on the APPIC website. It allows people to know their status and plan ahead.

Having said that, 1) I did receive a late email (only by two hours, but still late), and 2) apparently some sites actually do fail to notify properly (for which they can experience consequences).

According to APPIC, Greystone Park Psychiatric Hospital is supposed to be sending notifications tomorrow.

Consider it more aspirational in nature. The guidelines say that they should be making reasonable efforts to notify. I've never heard of a program facing consequences for late or no notifications. It's crappy, but this process id a madhouse with lots of moving parts at many places, things fall through the cracks, especially when delegated to admins. APPIC is more concerned about policing the other parts of match policy (solicitation of rank information, sites maintain their eligibility, etc).

Do anyone else's potential interview dates overlap? My sites have quite a few interviews on January 4th, 8th, 22nd, and 24th...
Click to expand...
Yes. I have a few on those same dates and three sites (I only have an interview at 2 of these so far) only offer on the 11th. Its disappointing because I liked all three and would have loved to visit each

edit: 1 minute after posting this 2/3 of the 11th
