As part of the application, applicants are asked to select at least one current Psychology faculty member with whom they wish to work—i.e., their prospective mentor(s). Understandably, many applicants want to know which faculty members are planning to admit students during the current cycle. We update this page with a list of our core faculty members’ current recruitment plans, typically by late August. Applicants are also encouraged to consult the faculty/lab websites of their prospective mentor(s) and to reach out via email if needed.
Prospective students apply to clinical or psychological sciences programs within the adult, child, pediatric, and health divisions of the department. Approximately 10 to 15 clinical students are admitted across the divisions. Approximately 5 to 10 psychological sciences students are admitted across the developmental, evolution cognition and behavior, cognitive and behavioral neuroscience, and behavioral medicine programs.
The department offers financial aid in the form of NIH traineeships, research assistantships, teaching assistantships, and university fellowships. Assistantships and pre-doctoral traineeship stipends typically are $41,250+ per year plus tuition remission.
