Graduate School Decisions- Where am I at?

2021 has come with several interviews, and a plethora of waiting time. I was interviewed for over half of the PhD programs I had applied to, and had a preliminary interview for another. Unfortunately, I was not offered admittance to any of these programs. I then began applying to master programs that had a research-focus and dedication to preparing students for doctoral programs. Finally, acceptance letters began to trickle in from the University of Texas at Dallas, Cleveland State University, and Mankato State University.

The challenge I am facing when considering these options is the pressure to accept my offer for a program that would best prepare me for a Clinical Psychology PhD program, where I would work in a faculty member's schizophrenia research lab.
