Master
of Arts Program in Clinical Psychology
- A baccalaureate degree from an accredited college or university,
with a 3.0 grade point average in the last two years
- Scores from the Graduate Record Examination, General Aptitude
Test.
- Three letters of recommendation.
Students without undergraduate psychology
degrees are welcome to the program, but are expected to have
taken the following prerequisite courses:
- Introductory Psychology,
- Statistics, and
- Abnormal Psychology.
Some additional prerequisites may be
required for students in the substance abuse specialty area.
Applicants with graduate degrees are
also expected to take the above prerequisites.
In addition to the above requirements,
admission will be based on the results of committee screening
interviews with each applicant. Assuming that graduates of
this program are likely to work at supervisory and therapeutic
levels that require more than ordinary personal and emotional
reserves, qualifications in addition to academic ones will
be evaluated at the time of the interview.
Candidates are expected to demonstrate
the highest levels of personal adjustment. It may be necessary,
for instance, for applicants with a history of chemical dependence
to demonstrate abstinence from mood altering drugs for a period
of two years prior to admission and/or indication of stable
personal adjustment.
Initial applications can be filled out
online. To request a written application and information packet.
