Program Overview

The doctoral program in school psychology includes a five-year course of study with a year-long internship. Time to degree completion varies (see program outcome data). Typical time to completion without a master s degree is 6 to 7 years. Applicants who have earned bachelor s, master s, and specialist levels are considered for the program. The first two years of the PhD program roughly parallel the specialist program. Students without an advanced degree also typically earn a MS degree after the first year of the program. The doctoral program also yields school psychology certification and is designed to qualify graduates for licensure as a psychologist.
