Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Is this program online or in-person?
Currently, we don’t have 100% online track, but 40% or more of our classes are delivered remotely or via hybrid format (remote mostly but with at least one in-person meeting) each semester. This is a clinical track program so during Year 2 and 3 the practicum trainings are in-person at their internship sites.
How long does the program take to complete?
2.5-3 years. Typically 3 years.
What are admission requirements?
BA in Psychology or a related field with a 3.0 GPA. Majors in other disciplines but with a strong interest in psychology or becoming a therapist are always considered (50% or more of our recent MFT graduates did not major in Psychology in undergrad). More stipulations for international students – please check with Enrollment / Admissions
Are Scholarships available?
