The CCP doctoral program offers an innovative, integrated approach to training in both clinical and counseling psychology, culminating in a Ph.D. degree. This joint initiative is managed by two departments: Psychology in the College of Arts & Sciences and Counseling & Instructional Sciences in the College of Education and Professional Studies. Ph.D. candidates participate in practicum training at the psychological clinic and must fulfill a year-long internship at an accredited institution.
Applicants can apply at one of two stages of their education.
Admission having only previously completed with a Bachelor's Degree: Students admitted at this stage must complete the requirements of the master's degree in psychology (Clinical & Counseling Psychology Concentration) along the way to earning their Ph.D. (see required coursework).
Admission having already earned with a Master's Degree: Students who have completed a master’s degree (Master of Science/Arts/Education) at another institution will enter the doctoral training program upon admission. Students are still held to course and program requirements of the Masters’ Degree in Psychology (Clinical & Counseling Psychology Concentration). Such students may submit requests to have these requirements waived based on prior graduate level coursework and other program requirements (e.g., master’s thesis).
English Proficiency Requirement: Minimum Duolingo: 100; Minimum TOEFL: 71; Minimum IELTS: 6.0; Minimum iTEP: 3.7; Minimum Pearson Academic: 48.
Application Deadlines: Fall - 15th December.
