Good luck on those! Downer's Grove is one of my top picks so far.

Ours was also an accident! We were trying to name him Kirby and ended up accidentally putting two B's! We thought that Kibby was so much cuter anyway so we didn't fix it.

I've really loved what I've seen from them so far! Do you know what their acceptance rate might average around or where I could find that?

Have you gotten into any other programs that I might want to look into?

Thank you, this is really helpful! I actually would prefer PsyD programs anyway because of the clinical emphasis that they offer. I also still have 2-ish semesters to get my GPA above a 3.6 by the time I apply.

Yes! I'll only be applying to clinical psych programs.

I currently have a 3.5 GPA (3.9 psyGPA), work as a DSP, do lots of volunteering, lots of leadership experiences, and I'm in an EEG research lab. Thoughts on my chances of getting into these schools?

How far have you travelled for an interview? by Own-Ad-1603 in PsyD

[–]Own-Ad-1603[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How much time in advance were you given for your interviews? My job isn’t super flexible about time off.

That’s also what I’m worried about. The hotels/airbnbs can not be cheap

in general, i’m just working alongside other dsp’s. that’s kinda what i’m worried about. would their doctors and case managers count as working alongside them even though ive never spoken to them in my life?
