M.S. in Psychology (distance learning)

• Admission Requirements

You must be a graduate of an accredited undergraduate institution and provide official transcripts to document that. You will also be asked to provide three letters of reference in support of your application. Finally, you will be asked to write essays outlining your goals and reasons for applying

For students coming from a non-psychology background, there are 4 courses that are prerequisites: developmental psychology, physiological psychology, personality or abnormal psychology, and statistics.

GRE scores are not required for admissions. If, however, you wish to transfer into the Ph.D. program, they will be required at that time.

You can transfer up to 5 units of prior graduate work. The coursework cannot be more than 5 years old. It is done on a case-by-case basis. You need to submit the course description with supporting documentation (e.g., syllabus). It will be reviewed by a PAU faculty member who will either accept or reject the course for transfer credit.
