The University requires a XX grade point average for admission. Successful applicants to the program generally present much higher grades and a higher grade point average. Grades are considered together with grade point average, course work, letters of recommendation, and GRE scores as the applicant's academic qualifications. Many applicants to the program do have bachelor's degrees in psychology. The program requires the applicant to have a bachelor's degree, but it does not have to be in psychology.
Most applicants have more undergraduate psychology course work than the minimum.
It is best that your letters of recommendation be spread across your experience, for example, one letter from a professor who knows your course work, one letter from a professional who supervised your work at a community agency, and one letter from a professor with whom you did research or teaching assistance. Related experience is any experience, paid or unpaid, that is related to the skills needed to be a psychotherapist. There are many and varied forms of related experience. The program highly values related experience. The program does not have a minimum requirement.
