All students, except already certified, experienced school psychologists, are required to enroll full time. Those with previous
graduate work in an allied mental health or related educational field
may integrate those courses into the program with greater freedom in
choice of electives, but they too are expected to be full-time
students. Manybeginning-level full-time students choose to complete the program in five years.
