Hi, do you mind private messaging with me and telling me who your POI is?

Also, do you know if they have finished contact interviewees, or are they still extending invites?

From my conversation with the POI, I'm under the impression that they're just starting to contact interviewees (since the program will be sending emails out this week or next week). Each faculty who are taking students divide up the interviewees to contact (and it sounds like they'll be interviewing 30-40 people/15-20 each day of the interview), so the process may take a few more days. Good luck guys!

 

[refreshingmyemail]

Has anyone heard from UCLA developmental psychology?

 

[gypsyflemming]

Interview Date: 1/12/16
Additional Info: After my interview with POI, I was contacted by a current graduate student to schedule another phone interview to ask questions about the program. Also, program is meeting this week (week of 1/18) to determine who they will make offers to, and then notify applicants in the next couple of weeks. Lastly, their recruitment weekend is scheduled for sometime in mid-March.

That time is upon us! I believe the last of the Psychology Ph.D/Psy.D. program application deadlines have passed or are coming up. This is my second time applying to programs and I found this site/thread helpful last year. Hopefully it will be again this year!

Please post (or send me a private message) your invitations here. I will try to update as often as I can.

Update for Georgia state counseling from TGC--interviews aren't 1/29 as previously told to one applicant, they'll be late February early March. Faculty will be contacting students individually to extend invites. Applicants without an invite will receive an email to check the status portal (I don't get why they can't send a mass rejection email instead of giving a sliver of hope to applicants who don't know what this means).

My guess is that they're behind on reading applications. Last year their interview was early Feb.
