School and Community Psychology (M.A.)
An admissions moratorium is in effect for this program.
Admission to this program is contingent upon admission to the Graduate School. A minimum of fifteen credits in psychology or educational psychology is prerequisite to admission. A program area application, the verbal and quantitative sections of the Graduate Record Examination (GRE), three letters of recommendation and a personal interview are required for admission consideration. Applications are accepted between September 1 and February 1. Students are admitted once each year and must begin the program in the fall semester of the year for which they are admitted. It is a cohort program so students are given a sequence in which to take classes. In addition to uploading transcripts to an online Graduate Admission application, there are additional items to be submitted directly to the program. Contact the program secretary for guidance in applying. As part of the completion of the master's program, students move into a graduate certificate program that culminates at the end of year 3.
