Student Disclosure Information
We are providing the following information to fully disclose to prospective students, current students, and the public information about our program processes and outcomes, including time to completion, program costs, internships, attrition, and licensure.
As a member program of the Council of University Directors of Clinical Psychology (CUDCP), the Clinical program has a history of providing such comparative information. All member programs "support the provision of fuller disclosure about operations and outcomes of our educational endeavors".
We recognize that these numbers may have little meaning. These numbers provide some information about our current applicants, but do not tell the whole story. Prospective applicants are discouraged from inferring from these data how likely they are to be admitted to the program or how quickly they will complete requirements. There are many factors that cannot be easily captured by these data. For example, our program does not screen applicants merely on GRE scores. High GRE scores will not automatically results in admission, rather, we review all aspects of the applicant's record to determine who will likely be the best fit for our program. In our review process we consider the following:
- research experiences
- clinical experiences
- quality of undergraduate training
- letters of recommendation
- GRE/GPA
- applicant's interest and fit with our program
What is important for an applicant is that this program truly engage in "truth in advertising" about what it does. We provide much information about our program so that applicants may find an appropriate fit with us or with another training program elsewhere.
