didn't hear back from Prof before applying, no interview, expected these results

Received an email stating I was waitlisted. Not bothered, as this was my backup and I already accepted an offer from my dream school. Good luck to everyone.

Got the email around 9:30 am this morning to check the portal! Super happy - this is my dream school!! 4a (1 unofficial)/1r/1p

generic mail directing to the portal

Ignore status. Has anyone applying to this program been invited to interviews? Thought I had a solid shot with this DU but haven't been invited… about to give up on it.

I had 2 big LORs, All As and 3 years of Research express. I have no idea what went wrong. This was my first priority. I feel extremely low. I don't know what interests them if not such academic background. Good luck to those who got through it.

Thank you very much for your application for admission to the doctoral program in the Department of Psychology at the University of Michigan. The qualifications of the applicants this year were simply amazing! All of the challenging academic work and research efforts represented in the applications were very impressive. As a result, there are many candidates for admission that are very promising scholars; yet, we cannot accommodate all who are qualified. I regret to say that you will not be offered admission to the program this year. Over 1,000 students applied, and about twenty will comprise the entering class this fall. A major factor in admissions is the fit of the student to the faculty scholars we have in residence, even though many candidates show the dedication, achievement, and preparation needed to succeed in graduate school. My hope is that you will find a good match with another program, or another route to the bright future ahead of you!

Was told by program director all interview invitations were sent out already.

Generic email saying they sent out all the interview invitations, and those who haven't received one (e.g., me) are unlikely to be offered admission. They received over 1000 applications and will offer admission to 21 students. I appreciate that, at least, they let me know.

To the posters below, was this a departmental interview invite?
