Clinical Psychology Graduate School Admission Results

Interview from POI

GPA is graduate GPA. I haven't gotten interviews yet so I'm hoping that I will hear from them in the future. This is what I received from the school: I wanted to reach out to let you know the status of your application to the PhD program in Clinical Psychology at Northern Illinois University (NIU). Your background and experiences make you well qualified for graduate work in clinical psychology and we think you fit well with faculty in our program. Unfortunately, we had a large number of applicants this year and we have limited availability to interview people. Thus, at this time, we are placing you on our waitlist and will not be interviewing you in our first wave of interviews. However, we want to let you know there have been years when we have returned to our list of qualified applicants to have an additional round of interviews, which eventually have led to offers of admission. If this were to happen, it would typically be in mid- to late March, or even early April.

waitlist for interviews. i'm ok with this as I have 8 other interviews. this process is so strange. my other interviews are at top schools / programs (USC, Yale, FSU...).

Email to check application status in portal- letter of rejection was uploaded in my portal.

GPA is MA. Was invited to the research panel morning of 2/4, and interviews are with 2 PIs and 2 grad students either 2/4 afternoon or 2/11. Email from office but I assume I will meet with the two PIs I mentioned interest in.
