[nostalgicmemories7]

I’ve seen rejections and interviews posted from these sites but I haven’t heard from any of them. I’ve been checking my inbox and spam nonstop!! Is anyone else awaiting an interview or rejection?

- Ohio Psychology Internship (Heartland Behavioral Health)
- Naussa University Medical Center
- Hutchings Psychiatric Center

Should I interpret these as rejections? Or is there a possibility I could get an interview? 😩 Be honestttt, I can handle it lol.

 

[sponge123]

So, still waiting on 5 sites but I figure I should start preparing for the interviews I do have. Any tips? I'm a little overwhelmed with so, so many potential questions and I'm not sure if others have developed strategies for how to prep most efficiently. Most of my interviews are in the same 2-week span (I know, common) but that adds to the anxiety. Any tips are welcomed! Thanks in advance!

Has anyone heard from CU Boulder CAPS?

Still waiting! They moved their notification deadline to 12/20 🙁

If it's past the notification day, I would just email and check in to make sure they didn't make a mistake. If it's not past the date, I would wait until then and take the lack of rejection as a positive sign.

Oh ok! Thanks.

 

[Psycheanon]

Just heard from Cleveland State University's Counseling Center that they will be withdrawing from the match and will not be taking any interns for this next year. Has anyone else run into this with a site, and if so, have you asked if it's possible to get our application fee back? (It might be petty, but also, grad student budget so I want money back 😕)

Yes, but you need to call AAPIC directly or they’ll never refund it on their own.

I received a rejection from Hutchings this morning - went to my junk mail first tho.
I have received an offer for an interview with Ohio Psych Internship, but it's the for the forensic track, and I think you're referring to the inpatient track. I wouldn't immediately interpret as rejections! Fingers crossed for you!!

 

[intern21]

Anyone heard from High Plains Internship Consortium?

I'm also still waiting for Hutchings! Not sure if this means those who received invitations/rejections were from a different track (I applied to the 2 sex offender treatment tracks) or if maybe we are in a possible second round under consideration if some of the first rounders decide not to attend the interview? Since their deadline is next week, guess we'll have to wait a bit longer to find out 🤔

Has anyone heard from Montefiore's child track? Their open house email said that we should hear by 4:59 pm EST today...

 

[missplum]

They were supposed to send out both rejections and invites by 4:59 p.m. ET today (according to their website). So I assume they're running behind.
