Drawing upon the insights of a number of disciplines and by laying the foundations for a therapeutic attitude, the program prepares students to enter the helping professions and/or pursue doctoral studies. The program was founded in 1980 and has a strong reputation established in the community. It is generally completed as a two-year full-time course of study. The program offers a broad foundation in philosophy/psychology, psychopathology and therapeutic motivations, attitudes and presence. The program entails the study of texts as well as personal reflection, with an emphasis on class discussion. We believe that learning occurs from each other as well as from faculty and one's self. To facilitate this exchange, we accept into the program approximately 20 students once a year. During the first year the classes are scheduled in the late afternoon and early evening, allowing students to be employed while pursuing this area of study. A full-time study involves three classes per quarter. The second year consists of a practicum-internship experience that includes supervision at the particular site as well as small group supervision within the program. The practicum grounds academic knowledge and reflection in practical experience. In addition, the second year student takes one elective course per quarter and completes an integration paper.     Accreditation Information:   # Of Credits Required:   Time To Degree:     Previous Degrees A bachelor's degree from a regionally accredited institution  Pre-Requisite Courses International Student Requirements Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) exam — Applicants who received most or all of their education in non-English speaking countries may be required by an admissions officer to take the Test of English as a Foreign Language exam.  Requirements Qualifying Exam: GRE Minimum Exam Score: GPA or Equivalent: 3.0 English Proficiency: Yes Research Competency: Yes Clinical Internship: Yes   Work Experience Volunteer Experience Publications Experience Foreign Language Requirement Other Requirements   Cost Per Credit Hour: $   Tuition:   Financial Aid Offered:       # of Students Enrolled Full Time: 1332  # of Students Enrolled Part Time: 631  Average GPA:   Average Test Scores:   Charge Per Credit: $587  Annual Full Time Avg Institution Tuition: $15390  Financial Aid Offered: Yes  Average Work Experience: Less than 1 Year  Specializations:   # of Terms Per Year:   Placement Percentage:   Historically Black: No   Religious Affiliation: Roman Catholic
