In the city it is supposed to be a mix of snow and rain with Boston getting 1-2 inches of snow.
Rain mixed with snow is the worst, would have preferred just snow. Not too worried about getting there, it's coming back that might be a problem. I'm 2 hours away
Good luck tomorrow and safe travels!
Thanks!
Hello everyone! I am a first-year student at MGHIHP, and I was at the interviews today as part of the student panel. To those of you who already interviewed, congrats! If you're scheduled for next weekend, good luck! Either way, please let me know if you have any questions about the interviews, about the program, about moving to Boston, or anything else during the application process. I'm happy to help!
For those who interviewed Saturday, how did it go?
For those interviewing this week it looks like we might also have a snowstorm to deal with Friday night into Saturday.

I interviewed this past sat, and it went great!, I really liked the vibe I got from the school. The interview itself was in groups of 3 for most, but for my interview we were just two. It was more like have a conversation, it was relax. At the end of all interviews, there is a reception and you get to talk to faculty and students. I cant wait to hear back from the school. Goodluck!
Nothing yet ! Furiously checking my email though haha.
I believe they get paid ½ - ⅔ of an entry-level therapist's salary, depending on the specific location of the clinical
They said on saturday that Friday would be the earliest we would hear but we might not hear until next week.
They mentioned depending on the internship the salary may get bumped up after you graduate and pass the boards which occurs during the internship
