Currently, the WSU program is approved by the Massachusetts Department of Education. The National Association of School Psychologists requires data accumulated for initial approval. New programs have a five year window to acquire required data. We anticipate submitting for an initial program approval to the National Association of School Psychologists in the Fall of 2012.
Requirements:
The School Psychology Program utilizes multiple criteria for consideration for admission: 1. A completed transcript of all past educational experiences and documentation of the award of a bachelor’s degree from a regionally accredited institution of higher education. 2. an overall undergraduate grade average of B 3. An undergraduate major or concentration in Psychology*.
*Students may be admitted to the program from a variety of academic backgrounds. However, it is expected that an appropriate number of courses in psychology may be required in the initial phases of training. The program director reserves the right to determine those courses to be taken. This preparatory coursework will not directly apply to the Course requirements for the M.Ed. /C.A.G.S. in School Psychology.
