Among those hours must be introductory psychology, statistics, and experimental psychology. The remaining 12 hours may be psychology electives and should senior level courses. A senior level statistics course is strongly recommended. Completed applications must be on file by February 15 for the initial acceptance decisions and for selection of graduate assistants. Applicants filing after that date will still be considered but have a markedly reduced chance of admission.
Admission is restricted to the fall semester only, and no provisional admissions are made.
All applicants are considered for financial assistance, and there is no separate application form. Nonresident fees are waived for graduate assistantships, but in-state fees are deducted from the stipend. In addition, graduate assistants receive a full tuition waiver for the summer semester. Grants and contracts also enable faculty to support students. Housing Most students live off campus.
