Does anyone know where I can find the stats for the programs' EPPP pass rate? The only one I can find is from 2017. Thank you.

California has a list posted every year here. I don't know if there is a nationwide list.

What an interesting list.

The fail rate of the EPPP for all the Alliant campuses is staggering, even the first time takers.

The overall fail rate is over 50% in California. I wonder how the public would react to this information. I am not trying to be judgmental of individual test takers but the quality of (mostly professional school trained) new psychologists in CA is a bit scary.

Considering most programs sit at an aggregate rate of 90%+, that is scary, though knowing the situation in California and the spread of diploma mills there, unsurprising.

I tried finding a personal psychologist in CA and it's been nearly impossible because nearly everyone in my area is from a degree mill. It's awful.

Trying to find a referrals for psychologist from a decent programs (PhD or PsyD) has been nearly impossible in every part of the country that I have lived. With such a large vacuum, no wonder poor programs (e.g., large cohorts, poor EPPP pass rates, lower bar for entrance) continue to exist.

That is one of the reasons I think there needs to be more PsyD programs. But these programs should be at universities where tuition doesn't drive the need. Obviously, there are some of these programs but they are still the minority. My hope is that more and more universities start PsyD programs that don't cost students over 100K. My hope is that better quality programs that are regionally accessible will eventually drive out some of the major offending poor programs.
