When an integrated scientist-practitioner model is functioning optimally, students should have the training and background to pursue professional careers in either academic or applied settings. We want a broad range of options to be available to students at the University of North Texas. Thus, our training supports both research publication and sophisticated practice of assessment, psychotherapy and consultation. Applicants for the clinical psychology doctoral program may have a bachelor's degree or a master's degree in psychology or a related field. Students who enter the program with a bachelor's degree will be able to receive a master's degree within the program en route to the doctoral degree.
Advanced placement is possible for students entering with a master's degree.
Students must meet the admission requirements of the Toulouse School of Graduate Studies, in addition to the following program requirements. A minimum 3.5 GPA on the last 60 undergraduate hours or a 3.0 GPA on all undergraduate work is required. Applicants who have already completed a master's degree must have at least a 3.5 GPA on graduate work. A minimum combined verbal and quantitative score of 1000 on the GRE is required. Admission to the clinical psychology program is not determined by any single criterion or quantitative measure of achievement.
