Anyone received a rejection from UNC-SOM forensic track? I know the offers went out forever ago but I haven't gotten a rejection.

I really liked that site but there was no way we could have financially made that jump, especially with how expensive housing and childcare is. I was sad when I crossed it off my initial list of sites I’d like to apply to.

Rejection from Harvard neuropsych..... why did I even bother applying there?🤣🤣👽

lolllll

 

[Doctor Koala]

4 rejections in one day 🙃. This is such a fun process. It’s like the Six Flags of application processes. Don’t you all agree? 🤗

Yes

 

[2ndMrshmllw]

Anybody still waiting to hear back from Westchester Jewish Community Services? Others in my program have gotten an interview over phone, or rejection over email, but I haven’t heard back.

I also applied and haven't received a rejection notice.

 

[psyd_lady]

I haven't heard back from Jesse Brown and I see others already have. Should I assume it's a rejection?

 

[psych4lyfe0929]

Did you get a date from them? I got invitation without a date but asked to RSVP 🙄

Yes!! lol

 

[DietCokeSoda]

I didn’t think it was possible, but I know some sites have extended their notification deadlines past the APPIC 12/15 date. One of mine extended their notification date to 12/30/2020, so yours might be accurate

 

[psyd_lady]

There is a site that changed their notification deadline to 1/11/2021...should I assume this is a typo?
If this is accurate, I'm EXCITED that I haven't been rejected but a bit nervous of the late interview!

If that's accurate and not a typo that's a RIDICULOUSLY late notification deadline.... 😬
Hoping you get an interview!!

 

[clinicaldoc2020]

Any word on peds or lifespan tracks? 🤔

They offered me an interview with their adult medical psychology track. I hope you hear back soon.

 

[beardedshrink]

UC Davis Counseling Center stated on their site that they would be notifying applicants by today at 9:00 am PST. Has anyone heard from them either invite or rejection?

 

[Psyducky]

I did and got an interview! Thank you for the good vibes!

 

[sustudent7]

I got the same! I emailed asking for dates but haven't heard back yet.

 

[et_phone_home]

Has anyone heard back from Clifford Beers Clinic (interview or rejection)?

 

[HopefullyOptimistic]

Has anyone heard from Kennedy Krieger Institute/Johns Hopkins Center for Child and Family Traumatic Stress? Their notification date was yesterday 😬

I have not. Not sure if it's appropriate to email them and ask about it...

 

[2ndMrshmllw]

I have not. Not sure if it's appropriate to email them and ask about it...

I also haven’t heard! I think technically we can email, but I might wait for Monday

 

[John Dory]

I got the same! I emailed asking for dates but haven't heard back yet.

thanks! i read thru like ten times just to make sure i didn't just miss it but nope, not even a range of dates and appic listing just says january..

 

[psych_nerd22]

Has anyone heard back from Terminal Island with a confirmed interview date? I replied to the TD with my preferred times but never heard back...

I haven't heard back from the TD but someone from HR called me to schedule the CVA/HR interview. I assume that once it is confirmed we pass that portion, the TD will confirm our interview date.

 

[psych_nerd22]

Has anyone heard from DSH-Napa?

 

[PsyD121]

I also haven’t heard! I think technically we can email, but I might wait for Monday

I also haven't heard from them. If anyone reaches out let us know!

 

[pleaseletmematch]

Thank you!! Did someone from HR at terminal contact you? I haven’t heard anything regarding scheduling an actual date for the CVA so I’m wondering if I need to reach out to ask. I was only asked what is the closest site to me

 

[wtfook]

I also haven’t heard! I think technically we can email, but I might wait for Monday

Hm yeah. I think that's a good call. I was gonna wait and see if they notify on the 15th as well and then email if they still don't on the 15th. But if you hear anything and email on Monday, let us know!

Yes, the HR person was from Terminal Island and I will be doing my CVA/HR Interview there as it is the closest site to me. I think HR from the site closest to you will be the one to contact you regarding the interview. I would wait until mid next week or so and then reach out? The HR person had just called me on Friday to schedule, so I assume they will continue calling to schedule more on Monday.

Has anyone received a rejection from Cleveland Clinic Children's? I have seen people post interviews but I don't think I've seen anything about rejections. Their listed notification date was 12/4, and I haven't heard anything.

 

[relationalpsych]

Hi, all! I know people have heard from Pacific Clinics birth-5 track and the adult track; has anyone heard from the Child/Adolescent/Family track?

 

[forensicpsych20]

Lol I’m like at what point tonight should I just stop refreshing my email

Mendota friends: I'm noticing their APPIC page says "Our assistant will contact interviewees who are selected to be interviewed" and I also checked last year's thread and don't see any Mendota rejections, so I'm wondering if perhaps they don't send rejections and the information that others have been invited to interview just hasn't made its way to this forum yet 🙁 Thoughts?

I have not! Waiting on that one

 

[alice_in_neuro_wonderland]

Rejection from Mount Sinai Dept. of Psychiatry (the Neuropsych-focused Mount Sinai site). Not only did this go to my clutter/junk mail folder, but it was sent like 5 times! I guess they really wanted to make sure I got the message lol

I got it multiple times too and they did not even bother to fill in my name lol.........*eye roll*

Does this mean you guys get to do five shots/drinks per the drinking game? 😉😂

 

[almostphdiva]

I got this one too! It was a pleasant surprise when I opened my email lol. Was not expecting to receive this on a Saturday

Is anyone else kinda confused with their approach to this open house lol I was pretty confused about how there are basically just open group based meetings?

no not yet for me 🙂

I would hope that's not the case. Even though some sites seem to do this, it is a clear and unambiguous APPIC requirement in Phase 1 to notify all applicants of status by the dates they choose to post on the APPIC directory. This requirement changes in Phase 2. Either way, if the notification date has passed, you have every right to inquire during this phase, even if for nothing else but closure.
