Historically, the Psychology Department has received one or more per year. They are renewable for up to two additional years. Students are hired to work in the Dean's office and carry out functions related to students affairs within the College of Arts and Sciences. These positions involve advising undergraduate students and engaging in other work related to the functions of the Psychology Department. The Psychological Clinic is staffed largely by Clinical graduate students.
Positions are available as intake coordinators and consultant examiners.
Typically each year, one or two advanced clinical students are hired to provide psychological services at the GMU Student Counseling Center. Students in some programs are eligible for an appointment as an intern at the Army Research Institute in Alexandra, Virginia. Some level of tuition remission by the department may be made available to those on this appointment. This information is distributed to graduate students as we receive it via e-mail. The University also maintains an emergency tuition assistance fund for graduate students who are unable to pay their tuition due to unforseen financial problems.
