DStillwagon Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Has anyone applied for this cycle? I'm contemplating it but am missing one course (abnormal psych). I'm totally willing to take it but can't right now. Their website says they will consider applicants with one outstanding course but it must be finished next spring. Wondering if it's worth applying if I have this outstanding course not already in progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disciple3 Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Just put it as planned in the spring. I just applied the other week and im also taking the psych course this fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DStillwagon Posted September 8, 2015 Author Share Posted September 8, 2015 I took the CLEP test for human growth and development for another program's upper level psych requirement but unfortunately Marietta won't accept it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disciple3 Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 I'm from Pittsburgh, so not too far. Yeah I just have it listed as an in progress course as I am taking it currently but already applied. You would need to plan on taking it in the spring and put in your CASPA coursework section that it is planned as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disciple3 Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Yeah, it said it was a copy so I assume the "real" invite is coming in the mail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L2014 Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Hi all! For those who have already interviewed, when they say "group interview," is this an interview like a panel with the Adcom or is it a group interview with other applicants?

Disciple3 Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Can anyone who interviewed list some things they really liked about this program? I can't seem to find much about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bios1215 Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 The interviews consist of a group of applicants being interviewed by a panel of faculty members. About 3-4 applicants per ~5 faculty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disciple3 Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Distance of rotations? How do the faculty seem? Dress code for class days? The assortment of clinical rotation types? Any TBL during the didactic year? Cheap to live out there? I have several decisions coming up and my interview here is pretty far away still!

Bios1215, Thanks for the insight! One more question for you, is it more of a collaborative group interview where they present a question and you work together, or all applicants asked the same question and they basically go down the line for everyone's answer? Thanks again :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
