Reallyyyyyyyyy hoping that some sort of news comes out of this week before Thanksgiving 😫 Tryna concentrate on the discussion section of this paper written but keep feeling pulled to refresh my email instead!

I am in the same boat! I was feel pretty anxious for a few weeks and haven't been able to concentrate on anything! But I think i've finally started to habituate to this feeling. Probably because I have a few reports for practicum + my discussion for my dissertation and another for a manuscript lol. No time to even procrastinate

Binge watching the masked singer has also helped get my mind off of things lol.

Has anyone received rejection emails from Mailman and Baylor? They sent out invites last week and I really need closure!

Has anyone gotten a rejection yet from Emory or Mass Gen/Harvard for Neuro? I've heard about a few interview offers for both but haven't yet heard either way.

I applied Neuro for Mass Gen/Harvard and I haven't heard either way!

It's crazy how research can be so grounding at times actually haha, not sure if that is a popular or unpopular opinion but I was doing a bunch of repetitive data entry last week and it actually captured my attention for quite a while.

Also, ooooooo I haven't caught up on masked singer yet, I should really do that! For some reason all I've been watching lately are true crime and court case shows; maybe telling of how stressed, on my toes, and ambushed I've been feeling the last few weeks in this process 🙃

[anxiousapplicant9]

I haven’t heard back from many of the sites where I have applied. I’m getting really nervous!

I've heard back from 1/15. So 1 interview and 14 unknowns. I have not had one supervisor of mine say that this is concerning. If anything, I have been told anything before Thanksgiving week is really early and that sites have until December 15 so I should not be making any assumptions about any sites at this point. -- This was just what I have been hearing from multiple supervisors and peer's supervisors so maybe this will make you feel a bit better!!! You got this!! 🙂

 

[roadtointernship419]

Anyone heard from Central Regional Hospital yet? ...waiting anxiously...

Yes!! I’m eager to run participants to keep me busy. And crime/court shows, always.

Same!

 

[neuropsycho12]

Anyone heard from Central Regional Hospital yet? ...waiting anxiously...

I think people from the Forensic track heard because they have to do the USA Jobs app but I applied to neuropsych and haven't heard. There's still lots of time!

Yes! I totally agree - it's nice to have something that requires some attention for distraction sake, but also not too much brain power lol

I didn't realize how much I actually would get into the show! I have been entirely way too invested in guessing who is in what costume haha

 

[SophrosynePsych]

Have you received your interview date confirmation yet? It's confusing to confirm that I selected the right date with the hidden Doodle poll. I'm also not sure if I should send a thank you email now or later.

No, I haven't received a date confirmation. It sounded like they would disappear in Doodle when the slots were filled since the TD said to email them if there weren't any left. So I am assuming that the one I selected is the one I will keep. And I don't see any issues sending a thank you email now!

 

[maddypandy_grad]

Nope! I’ve been waiting on them too!!!!!

Silence from Baylor, didn't apply to Mailman. Just over here pretending I am not refreshing this page and my email every two minutes. SIGH. I know it is irrational and it is early but no sense can be talked into me at this point. Good luck!!! 🙂

I applied to the child elective but have not heard anything either way...

I have 1 rejection and still waiting to hear from the other 16. My supervisor was also not concerned, but maybe she was trying to keep me calm...

It was for the Northeast location.

Congratulations!!! I didn't hear from them.... I wonder if anyone else received rejection emails from them? I guess not hearing = rejection, but I'd love to receive any official rejection email to "close the case"...

Same! Did anyone else who heard back from this site get an odd support ticket generated when they replied about scheduling? It seems like they're using an application management service and there weren't any other options for ways to contact the site, but I'm a little concerned my reply didn't go through.

I got the same. Basically, we can still rank the site because they'll still rank us but they're not going to interview us.

 

[pedspsych4life]

I did not get an odd support ticket response, I didn't get one back at all after I sent my preferences

I haven't received any emails like this (yet?) but is the assumption that this is the decision for all of those not interviewed or that there is another group of people that all receive rejections without being ranked by the site?

 

[Psyducky]

Congratulations!!! I didn't hear from them.... I wonder if anyone else received rejection emails from them? I guess not hearing = rejection, but I'd love to receive any official rejection email to "close the case"...

I haven't heard either. Assuming a rejection for my wellbeing but would also love to have closure

 

[PsyD-2022]

So I have received 4 rejections, 0 interviews. I have 10 sites I have not heard back from. Should I consider applying to a few more sites?

Most sites don’t do this, in fact I’d say it’s relatively rare. You either get an invite or rejected. In a rare case like this, you’ll get notified that you aren’t being interviewed but your application isn’t rejected. You’re on the “waitlist”, and it’s possible, though more unlikely, to match from a waitlist. But it does happen.

I got the weird support ticket too. I assume the email we replied to serves as a help desk for some things as well.

 

[Doctor Koala]

So I have received 4 rejections, 0 interviews. I have 10 sites I have not heard back from. Should I consider applying to a few more sites?

Going by the research, applying to any additional sites above 15 won’t really increase your probability of matching by much unfortunately. Of course, apply to any new sites that you strongly feel a good match towards, but just know that applying for more in hopes of increasing odds doesn’t work that way.

Just got my first rejection from north Texas VA neuro track. No interviews yet and silence from every other site. Starting to feel my hope diminishing!

I actually just got a mass email rejection from them so probably a good sign if you didn’t get one 🙂
