Forensic Psychology (MA) Program

Admissions Requirements

Eligible applicants must hold a four-year college degree from a regionally-accredited institution (or its equivalent). Although not required, at least some coursework in the field of psychology is strongly recommended. Although cutoff scores are not strictly applied, the most competitive candidates for admission will have an undergraduate GPA of 3.0 or higher. The GRE is not required.  For applicants whose primary language is not English, the preferred TOEFL combined scores will be 550 (paper-based). 213 (computer-based), or 92 (internet-based). Applicants whose scores are substantially lower than these should qualify the reasons for this in their application. The written components of the application (i.e., the required work samples) are also vital for this evaluation.
