Same.I emailed the director, and she told me that the notification date should be Dec 10. I received a rejection. Best wishes to you!

To the rejection and the best wishes!Same.
Yes I haven't heard anything either way, but I believe they did send out invites, per page one of this thread.Anyone else still waiting on Tarzana Treatment Center?
Ok guys I know the notification deadline hasn't passed for these sites but I wanted to see if anyone has heard anything (acceptances or rejections) because they aren't very talked about sites on the forum:
Richard Donovan Corrections
Northern California Department of Corrections
Napa State Hospital
Florida Department of Corrections
Marin County STAR Mental Health Court Track
South Florida State Hospital
California Medical Facility - Vacaville
FCI - Terminal Island
Los Angeles County Internship in Corrections
I know the cost of traveling can be overwhelming but I used to live in NYC and I highly advise against using Frontier especially when there could be snow or other travel altering weather involved. In my experience out of the NYC area airports they are horrible about cancelations and delays and I would hate to see someone miss an interview because of a horrid airline!I do. I am really excited tho. After receiving invites in the first week or so of this notification period then receiving rejections from 17 sites (all VAs), it has been discouraging. Then...finally getting 3 invites in one week, one being a VA...my spirits have been lifted. In total, I have 4 places to interview at, and one I am able to rank without interview. I am still waiting on 11 more sites to hear back from. One site in NYC invited me and will also be a vacation for my husband and I. We will spend 4 days there...tour around, etc. However, the cost is something I am keeping an eye on too. I have found some good airfare prices (Frontier has a roundtrip ticket to NYC for $75).

Has anyone heard from Child and Adolescent Behavioral Health in Canton, OH?
To piggy back on this - anyone heard from Pacific Psychology and Comprehensive Health?
Many don't, but some do.Do sites do "rolling" interviews?
Thank you. I don't understand why the sites who have already sent out interviews just don't send rejections to other applicants. What's this waiting for? LOLMany don't, but some do.
After the interviews, it takes probably at least a week for the site to coordinate interviewees and dates. I imagine some sites want to confirm that everybody they invited are able to interview before they reject the rest of the applicants.Thank you.

Southwest is also great because you don't have to pay to check bags (up to 2 bags).One airline I would recommend is southwest. They don’t always fly everywhere and sometimes their prices may be a little higher, BUT if you ever have to cancel or change a flight, you don’t lose your money. You just put it towards your new ticket or another trip. So even though you don’t get a direct refund, you don’t lose money and you can still use it. Which is nice for this situation where sometimes you’re booking and then re-booking /changing things.
We can all have our own opinion and mine is that SW sucks butt. They seem to always oversell.Southwest is also great because you don't have to pay to check bags (up to 2 bags).
I think VA Portland has a 12/15 notification date. I would assume (but don't know for sure) that they just send out all invites and rejects on the same day since they do an open house instead of scheduling multiple interview days.Anyone heard from VA Portland or VA Pacific Islands?
We should all discuss pro/cons of airlines to get our minds off of site rejections/invites!!
Anyone heard from VA Portland or VA Pacific Islands?
I think the 2 checked bags looks enticing but I can get a more reasonably priced flight on American and Delta, pay for a bag, and still be under the price tag of a Southwest flight. They also have more direct flights than Southwest in my opinion especially American. I would definitely agree with the carry on comment unless you have a long string of interviews back to back and need to pack more.Southwest is also great because you don't have to pay to check bags (up to 2 bags).
Sorry to hear that Sending you hope that you get interviews to sites where they can better support your training goals and career development.Rejection from Centerstone. How lovely.
I agree with previous posts that budget airlines (e.g., Frontier, Spirit, Allegiant) are not the best use of one's money. They have frequent delays and these delays are often long (see chart below). JetBlue argues that its delays are more frequent because a larger proportion of its flights happen in the Northeast corridor, which is "congested", compared to other airlines. (Here's an analysis of the Department of Transportation statistics - This Chart Shows Which Airline Is the WORST When It Comes to Delays and here are the data: https://www.transtats.bts.gov/OT_Delay/OT_DelayCause1.asp).
Personally, I wouldn't say I'd recommend any specific non-budget airline for this sort of situation. Whatever is least expensive and has the fewest connections is likely best.
I am also waiting on VA Pacific Islands and haven't heard anything yet.Anyone heard from VA Portland or VA Pacific Islands?
Accredited on Contingency is still APA accredited. Go ahead and apply!Can someone give a definition of "accredited on contingency" status? Cleveland Clinic is a newer program and still missing outcome data to receive accredited status. Will this hurt me to complete my internship at this site? My DCT is unsure as well.

My DCT explained it as essentially accredited. If you attend an "accredited on contingency" program and they keep this status the whole time you are there you are good; however, if they have a follow up visit scheduled while you are in the program and they lose this status rather than being granted full accreditation it will not count as completing an accredited program. Based on how it was explained to me it seems to come down to timing, if they have the follow up visit while you are there and they lose the status its not good for you but if the follow up is after you would be done with the program you are in the clear entirely. ***(This is completely based on what I have been told by my DCT so you may want to follow up with the APA website for official clarification.)Can someone give a definition of "accredited on contingency" status?
