I agree..need more info...GPA and GRE scores specifically. If its below 3.0 it will probably not be possible to go directly into a psy.d. If the GRE is strong and he is not below a 2.8 or so, he could probably get into a masters program in psych (use it as a stepping stone to a doctoral program) to boost his GPA.
Generally speaking though, limiting your geographic region decrease chances for admission in such a competitive field.
