Did you apply to adult or child/adolescent focused rotations at WPIC? I’m wondering if they sent all the invites out at once or if they are coming out in waves...

Email the TD and ask. Some are still open because they’re extending their dates and it hasn’t shown up in late breaking news yet

Just want to say that I love the support that I'm seeing from these posts. I haven't heard from any sites today. My friends have been getting interview invitations all day (St. Luke's and NYU-Bellevue and Jacobi), so I'm feeling weird right now, but I'm glad that we are here to support each other!

I’m also waiting on their neuro track, but haven’t heard anything yet.

Still anxiously awaiting that one myself!🙁

I’m waiting to hear from them as well! Haven’t seen anyone post about having heard from them, so as far as I know they haven’t contacted people yet. Their notification deadline is posted as 12/1.
Waiting on Metro as well!
I'm still waiting on Children's National and the calls were hours ago....looks like that's a rejection for me 🙁
Does anyone know if Mount Washington Pediatric Hospital extended its deadline via one of our "Breaking News" emails? Its portal is still open and this site may not have been in my purview at the time it came along.
I saw that someone received a Miami VA invite for the Neuro track--can anyone confirm whether or not health psych track invites also went out already? And also, has anyone heard from the DC VA?
I am waiting on DC VA as well and haven’t seen any posts about it so I guess there’s hope♀️
I got a mass email rejection this morning, I applied to the health track.
To clarify, this was in reference to the question about Miami.

Offered Interview Dates: 1/10 or 1/11. They offered morning and afternoon slots.
(In honor of last year) If & How you're staying sane: only halfway sane at this point. Focusing on the concrete things I can do day to day helps, like laundry or homework or dissertation.

Right there with you.
Congrats to those who heard from the West Haven VA!!! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for their health psych track, still waiting to hear

Thank you and Best of luck to you!
Today has not been nearly as informative as I had hoped.
Highly recommend watching endless amounts of HGTV and Food Network. Tangent, but I actually watched an epsiode of House Hunters the other day where the couple wanted a CLOSED FLOOR PLAN and CARPET in every room (!!!). Judging other people's home decor choices soothes my soul.
Ha both good recommendations. I find the Great British Baking Show to be somewhat entertaining as well, with an occasional clever comment.

I’ve already gone through all the Netflix British Baking Show’s AHH I need more! I love HGTV too. Also been binge watching Shameless.
I recently watched the Kominsky Method and it was decent - not action-packed or anything, but a few good laughs. Of course, my two mainstays are the Office and Curb Your Enthusiasm.

This is on my Netflix list! I've heard so many good things about this show but I've been saving it for desperate times...like now.
The amount of love I feel for Shameless is endless 😍 I've watched them all and love all the characters but Frank and Lip are my favorites. So so good.
I haven’t heard from any sites for 10 days!!!! [emoji15][emoji849][emoji12][emoji848]

I'm preparing for a torrential downpour of notifications in a very short period of time, including both sites that have notified no one (to my knowledge) and those who have already sent a wave of invites.

For me it has only been 5 days but it sure feels like the longest five days. Getting through this next few weeks will be a FEAT!

So I'm thinking ahead here, but is anyone facing the unfortunate event of flying across the country to a far away state TWICE? I tried my best to schedule interviews around expected dates but it's very possible i'll have 2 separate interviews 2 weeks apart, in the farthest state from where I live....
