Also, please describe or provide a link to program admissions policies that allow students to enter with credit for prior graduate work, and the expected implications for time to completion. Please indicate "NA" if not applicable:

Students who have completed a master's degree in psychology elsewhere may be able to reduce their time in the program by one year (e.g., to four years in residence, prior to taking the internship in the fifth year), if they transfer in or waive some graduate courses and have completed an acceptable empirical master's thesis. Transferring in or waiving courses is possible for some, but not all courses. All core clinical courses (psychopathology, assessment, intervention, ethics, practica) must be taken in our program, even if a student has taken such courses elsewhere. Students can petition to have other graduate-level courses as well as elective courses transferred or waived, such as statistics, history, learning, developmental, personality, and so on that are not clinical courses. The Graduate Committee of the department handles such requests. If you previously have completed a research master's thesis at another university, you can petition to have this thesis accepted to satisfy our program's thesis requirement. A committee will review it to determine if it is of a quality comparable or superior to theses conducted here. If so, then you do not have to complete a thesis here, but you must do a non-thesis research project. This information is described in more detail in the Graduate Student Handbook , which is also available on-line on the same website page that took you to this document.
