This is especially directed at those who just went through the match (or are about to) but is relevant to all of us.
What are your feelings towards "affiliated internship" or a "partially affiliated internship," which means that the program has an affiliation with a specific doctoral program and generally (but not necessarily exclusively, in the case of partial affiliation) accepts interns only from that doctoral program. Argosy DC has one as does Widener and University of Denver's School of professional psychology. UT Southwestern Med Center's clinical program has one of these too I think. Its divided into 2 years though, I think.
I have also heard through rumor mills that this model is becoming appealing for other programs too. Specifically, the University of Kentucky. I think their logic is more about not losing the productivity of grad students from Dec through February.
The reason I brought this up is because some of these programs are offering quite a few spots in the APPIC match II (they are APA accredited) but they are still only open to students from the affiliated school at this point. I can appreciate how in this era of mass imbalance, this would be quite off-putting to people still struggling to get a match.
