Admission is a two stage process.
This follows the guidelines established by the FRCD graduate faculty, including the submission of three letters of recommendation, department and Graduate College applications, GRE scores, statement of goals, and transcripts of undergraduate work, all by the February 15 deadline. The second stage is admission to clinical training. Students who wish to seek admission to MFT clinical training are required to declare their intent during the spring semester of their first year of graduate study. Consideration requires successful completion of a core of courses, a self study, and an interview conducted by the MFT clinical faculty. Applicants for MFT clinical training are notified of their acceptance or rejection by the end of the spring semester in which they applied.
