Have people heard from Rutgers Adult Corrections/ Forensics track? I saw a few Rutgers posts but not sure about this specific

I got an interview at Rutgers (to clarify since there's multiple: APPIC #1430, in Newark) and they emailed on 11/24. The email wasn't specific to the track, but I only applied to the Adult Corrections/Forensic. Sorry! Hope that doesn't mean bad news for you!

On Rutgers' APPIC page, they say they notify on a rolling basis, so I wouldn't worry too much yet!
 
Hello! I hope everyone was able to relax this weekend... which seems hard this time of year, lol.

I have a mandatory open house scheduled for this week with an internship site. It is an hour-long open house. I also have an hour-long individual interview with this same site the following week.

Can anyone give any insight into what usually happens at these (virtual) open houses, like should I expect this to turn into a group interview format? In particular, this site gave us a few different days and times to attend their open house, and in my group, there are about 10 of us (which is why I questioned whether it would turn into a group interview or not). Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated!

I've gone to 4 so far (2 mandatory, 2 optional) and they have been fairly relaxed opportunities to hear more about the program and ask questions to department staff and current interns. Not once has it turned into a group interview. At *most* you'll be asked to introduce yourself. Have fun!

Great, thank you!
 
jw if anyone has any insight: is it common for sites to wait until 12/15 to send out rejections?

also has anyone received a rejection from the Washington DC VA?

FBOP applicants - I just emailed the DCT asking about the OF 15 form and what to put for the box asking about the number of days I can report for duty after receiving an offer. I will let you all know what she says!

Thank you! Also, I haven’t recieved my OF 15 form yet. I’ve continually checked my inbox and junk mail. Is anyone in the same boat? I’ll reach out to someone from one of my sites tomorrow to ask.

Has anyone heard from Ohio Psychology Internship for the Inpatient track? I know some people have heard from the Forensic track but I haven’t seen anything about Inpatient. I haven’t received a rejection or an invite.
