Has anyone received a rejection from Baylor College of Medicine-Menninger or MEDVAMC?

 

[bcliff]

I am not really taking that into consideration when ranking sites. I feel like they are a good program and that they have a plan to address it. I would be surprised if they don’t fully address everything and get off probation. I’m not sure if that’s naive of me to think though 🤷🏻‍♀️

My program requires an APA accredited internship, so I actually didn’t apply because if they lose accreditation, then I wouldn’t be able to graduate. I agree that it seems unlikely though. It feels like a similar situation to what UAB was in a year or two ago.

I did my undergrad in Denton (where TWU is located). Happy to answer any questions about the area!

 

[ACpsych2020]

I'm sorry to hear that! I'm waiting on this one...was it a mass email?

It was personal I think!

Thank you!!!

 

[LoadingDoctorateDegree...]

Same but for Integrated PCBH. Dates/times are on the website, they’re somewhat non-traditional (half-day).

I've seen CBT, Integrated and Forensic but I didn't see anyone post about the child track. Wondering if anyone knows if that email went out too?

What track did you apply to? Was the email specific?

 

[psyd_lady]

Not sure what to do.
I saw people got both offers and rejections from Penn Med Hershey and I haven’t heard anything? Should I contact them?

I would wait! The same thing happened to me and then I ended up getting an interview a few days later

 

[readyforfebruary19]

I haven't heard from many sites yet but I've received two invitations, Boston and NYC and I live in the Midwest. Interesting question but all of my sites are far away from me so I hope it doesn't matter!

I'm in TX and have received invites from New England, the Midwest, the West Coast, the Atlantic Coast, and the PNW - just for reference! I don't imagine it actually matters much

 

[nicolascagephd]

Is anyone still waiting on University of Colorodo SOM?

I received a mass rejection email from them on 11/30.

 

[psyd_lady]

Anybody hear from Mendota? Their notification date isn't until the 11th but I expected to hear from them by now based on years past.

I am wondering about this site too!!

Same 🙂

 

[discolemonade]

They don’t have tracks, just one general internship program. Maybe you’re thinking of a different Mount Sinai program?

 

[Morningview]

Yes, I did. I know they have rolling invitations though, so it may not be too late!

How long ago did you hear?

[phdstudent78]

Has anyone heard from Boston Children's yet? It says that their notification date is today.

 

[almostphdiva]

What track did you apply to? Was the email specific?

i got this email too (today, which suggests they are sending these emails in waves). i ranked 1) the Psychiatric Outpatient Services for Adults Rotation 2) the General Adult/Psychiatric Substance Use Inpatient Service, and 3) the Addictions Training Program Elective but the email seems generalist.

 

[childishpsych]

I think it's meant to be this week (i.e., starting today), if that helps. In any case, I haven't heard from them either. Fingers crossed for us both! 😊

To piggyback off of this, I asked the TD at FCI/FDC Tallahassee and they said to contact the HR rep specified on the form because they aren't supposed to advise on the HR part of the interview process 🤷‍♀️ So I planned to call once receiving the OF-5 form to clarify with HR directly.

Can you update us tomorrow after you call? I have multiple BOP sites and don’t want to call them all.

 

[Psychai]

How long ago did you hear?

It was on 11/20, I think on the same day a couple others posted on invites for a few of their tracks.

Not yet!

FCI/FDC Tallahassee hasn't sent out the OF-5 form yet so unfortunately I don't have contact info for an HR rep. I can update once I do have it, but I don't know how long that will be...

 

[k.kim1423]

So i know where to find the statistics for how many people match vs not match per school per the entire system... is there any statistics about the percentage of people getting their top 3 vs percentage of people getting top 5 etc.? or the average number of placements people rank? I am unable to find this info!

(Rejection: Texas Child Study. It was kinda cold and I had to email them to get it. Seemed safe since their notification day was 12/4)

Good to know. I didn't receive anything, so I'll just assume it's a rejection 🙂

 

[doctorpineapple123]

They don’t have tracks, just one general internship program. Maybe you’re thinking of a different Mount Sinai program?

Thanks for the clarification. I applied to mount sinai/ Elmhurst hospital for the child & adolescent track. Not sure if I’ve seen anyone post about it!

 

[intern1222]

Did invites go out for all of the Jackson and UT San Antonio tracks today? Or just some?

 

[doctorpineapple123]

Same here. Except, they offered me 1/6, 1/7, and 1/11 for interview dates.

Congrats!! Haven’t heard anything from them yet. 🤞🏼🤞🏼

 

[peaceandparsimony]

Did invites go out for all of the Jackson and UT San Antonio tracks today? Or just some?

Regarding UT San Antonio, I'm not super sure but my invite seemed to be more connected to the CBT track. They have open houses for each track it seems, so I wouldn't be surprised if the child/adolescent or primary care tracks come later. The email has the link for a program overview video and zoom links for the CBT track open houses, so I wouldn't be surprised if the other tracks are getting the logistics of their links together.

waiting for Boston Children's as well!

 

[km13psy]

Is anyone still waiting on University of Colorodo SOM?

I am! Cohort mate got invite 2 weeks ago I think. I fear my rejection is coming soon lol.

Primary care were sent today. I imagine child might’ve gone out too, but that’s the only one that hasn’t been posted yet.

 

[helpfulpsychfiance]

Pace University's UCC interview notification was today - I've seen one person from earlier in the thread get an invitation. Anyone else still waiting?

We're still waiting over here and others I know who have applied have not heard anything either as well. We're all in the same boat lol.

 

[kayfay89]

Has anyone received a rejection from Baylor College of Medicine-Menninger or MEDVAMC?

I haven’t heard from MEDVAMC yet. No rejection, no invitation.

 

[PsycIntern2021]

What track did you apply to? Was the email specific?

I applied to Brief Psychotherapy. It was general (dear applicant) and did not specify tracks.

Me! I saw that too...IDK if they're running behind because of COVID and the end-of-semester rush. I was thinking of emailing them later this week (or maybe next week) if I still don't hear back.
