George Mason University

Clinical Psychology, PhD (F23)

Rejected via E-mail on 17 Apr 2023

Note

PI: LA Received a personal email on 4/14 from the Director of Clinical Training stating that despite my strong application, LA chose another applicant - Definitely not surprised, seeing as it is mid-April. However, she also said that her email was meant to be a follow-up on my official decision notification that I should have received at this point, but my portal still reflected "under review" status until my rejection letter was finally uploaded on 4/17. I still have yet to receive the normal notification email that the Director said I should have received prior to her reaching out with well-wishes. Despite this admissions mess, in my experience, LA is a true rarity in Academia. She is both a brilliant researcher and a fantastic mentor and human being. Sending the biggest congratulations to her accepted applicant!
