Hello everyone, I'm very interested in applying to clinical psychology PsyD programs that emphasize neuropsychology, preferably through a set track of some sort. Anywhere in the country is fine as long as it's not a diploma mill. My search for this emphasis/ track is more out of a personal...

Hello all, I am interested in becoming a licensed psychologist (leaning towards masters as I am more interested in practicing, still considering a Phd or PsyD) and having my BCBA certification. I am looking for a single school that can offer me both. Help? Thanks!

So I am a non-traditional student and very new to this all. Thinking about going back or a PsyD or Phd in psychology. Some schools that offer PhD say "stipend first three years". What does this mean? Am I working for them to get this stipend during the first three years? Or am I just taking...

So I am 34. I graduated in a completely different major..11 years ago. So I have a BA. I had 3.8 GPA. Only took one intro to Psych course but minored in Philosophy with lots of courses to do with the mind. I have volunteer experience working with trauma victims working the hotline for a bit...

Hi All... I have read, and mostly agree with the suspicion people have about the financial prudence of professional PsyD programs. It does indeed seem unwise to take out $150000 in student loans for getting eventual jobs that will not pay enough to justify that kind of debt. However, my...

Hi everyone, I'm currently a freshman psych BA major (probably going to change to BS), and I changed to psych from bio because I actually have a great interest in the field. The psych classes I've taken have been the only ones that genuinely excited me and made me want to learn more. My goal...

I've geared my academic career towards medical school, having completed a BA in psyc last December. I'm currently taking organic chem, stats, & calc/DIY post bacc until I start my official one at Charles Drew in Aug (if I have enough under grad loans left). Need sGPA reconstruction, but I was...

To begin I am an extremely hard worker, I would like to consider myself conscientiousness, determined and goal driven. I am currently in my senior year of undergraduate work and am still unsure of my plans next year. My dream has been to obtain a terminal degree (PhD. or PsyD) in clinical...

MOD NOTE: We are now going to have one thread for all of the inquiries for competitiveness, what are my chances, do I have a shot, can I get into ABC University, etc. Most of the other SDN forums have found success with having one thread, so we are going to adopt that going forward. 1. Please...

I am a current Psy.D student (in clinical psych). I've recently become interested in Industrial/Organizational psychology, however. I was wondering if I could pursue a career in I/O psych with a doctoral degree in clinical psych. I am having difficulty finding info about this anywhere online...

Hello all! I’m a current senior trying to decide whether to go for an MSW (leading into a LCSW) or a PsyD. My main goal is therapy within a private practice, and making a decent living doing what I love the most—listening to people, and helping them overcome the isolation that comes with mental...

Hello members of the SDN community! I have been doing a lot of searches and read up on various posts from many knowledgable experts here, but I decided in order to more accurate information it would be best to share my own circumstances. Please help in any way you can with tips/advice/personal...

Hi, I am a junior at a top state school hoping to become both a school psychologist and a licensed psychologist. I know there are a few programs in the tri-state area that are either PsyD specializing in school psychology or PhD in school psychology. Because you ultimately become a school...

Hello all, I am a junior completing my BS at Stony Brook University in Psychology (concentrations in Bio & Chem), with a minor in Health and Wellness. I have read all the other threads with the same title and am fully aware of the simple differences between the two degrees, i.e. length of time...

Okay I am a psychology major (Junior) with a research emphasis and I am not 100% sure what I want to do after I graduate. I go back and forth between a Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy or a PsyD, but my only reservation about the MFT is that I may change my mind and want to pursue my PsyD...
