Just got this too. This was one of my favorite sites but I have to say this may have been the least thoughtful rejection email I have received. (And I received plenty...😉) Ah well - takes the edge off a bit I guess.

So impersonal! And seems hastily written. I've been (SO) lucky that this is my only one up to this point (still waiting to hear from more sites)!

 

[anxiousdepressedpsychstud]

Literally in the same position! Not sure if it's normal though!

In the same position as well. did you apply for mostly neuropsych tracks?

 

[kayfay89]

thank you <3 I completed these applications only a few weeks after giving birth to my first child because i was so determined to continue moving forward with my career, and I know I did a good job despite the lack of sleep! praying for the same sort of response you got...

I was in the same situation last year and decided to hold off applying for a year. But honestly traveling right after birth for interviews was one of my main reasons for waiting. From a mama of 3 (1 of which arrived 3 months before starting grad school and 2 of which happened during grad school), great job! You have a lot to be proud of.

As to the quality, I appreciate the volume of work and integrity put forth by TDs and training committees during internship season and as long as it’s not actively mean, I am personally just happy for the closure of an official rejection at all.

 

[relationalpsych]

This is the final push everyone! Sending you ALL positive vibes this week. Don't forget you're all amazing and you'll kick a** at interviews!

 

[anxietybunny]

Anyone hear from the Albert Einstein/Montefiore Combined Specialization? I've seen some for adult and some for child on here.

Yes. Got invitation on Thursday for Montefiore combined.

Has anyone received a rejection from the New Jersey VA or Sacramento VA?

 

[Unknown12345]

The most generic rejection from Kennedy Krieger Institute/Johns Hopkins Center for Child and Family Traumatic Stress/Psychiatric Mental Health. Addresses "dear applicant." Yikes. Best of luck to those still waiting.

 

[tdot_psych]

Happy new week everyone! Hoping for the last invites to roll out this week (or some closure).

Has anyone gotten a rejection from Youth Opportunity Center? I saw someone post an interview invite via mass email, but haven't seen any rejections. I haven't heard from them despite the notification date being Friday, but it seems like last year they sent rejections days after the deadline.

 

[sustudent7]

Has anyone heard from LIJ/Zucker Adult Track?

I applied to the Adult Track too and haven't heard back yet.

 

[YungPsy]

All of the rejections I received apart from 1 said "Dear Applicant"

 

[Noor0183]

I know a couple of people have heard back from Mt. Washington Pediatric Hospital the neuropsychology track, a while back. Has anyone heard from them recently?

 

[dranxiety3]

FBOP peeps - for the people interviewing at Tallahassee, how many days did you put on the OF-5 form?

When I spoke to the program coordinator, she said anything between 0-100 is fine, but that it doesn’t actually matter!

I was told the same!

Thank you for asking about Charleston! I was just about to ask if anyone else was still waiting. I'm expecting the rejection but still waiting (SO impatiently).

Thank you for asking about Charleston! I was just about to ask if anyone else was still waiting. I'm expecting the rejection but still waiting (SO impatiently).

I edited my post to add in their notification date, which I just checked and it’s today! Hopefully we’ll hear something today. I wonder with their rolling notification if they decide to extend more interviews based on how the earlier interviews go. They’ve had 4 interview days including today.

 

[HPB2015]

Also, any Charleston Consortium rejections?

Not yet, still hoping they have a change of heart.... 😉
