UCL Postgraduate Psychology HELP!!

Okay so I've been invited for an interview on skype (internatational applicant) which I'm insanely excited about. The course is Developmental Psychology and Clinical Practice. Can someone please help with potential questions or their interview experience?

Congrats! I've just been looking at what last year's applicants said to be honest in previous threads. Organise a practice interviews with your University's careers service - helped me a lot!

I received an email specifying that my application is under consideration on 14th. Applied late January. A little apprehensive atm 🤭

If you don’t mind, can you please tell me when you received the “application under consideration” email?

I know you weren’t asking me, but I got that email from The programme organiser a week after I submitted my application x

If it is helpful, in my case, I received "application under consideration email" on the 14th, one day before I got invited for the interview:smile:

Congratulations I also got invited to a Skype interview because I am an international applicant! I suggest looking at the past thread for 2018/19 entry for interview tips! :smile:

Hey:smile: I hope you will hear back soon! My portal status is still "application under assessment". It has not changed since my referees submitted their references. I think your status will not change unless a final decision has been made.

Best of luck! I got one as well on the 14th and got an email about the interview the next day. Not sure how it all works I’m just winging it so far lol
I still haven't heard back from UCL :frown: terrified that it is a rejection. Wish they would let us know sooner rather than later
