The application process begins with submission of the following:

  •  Scores from GRE Psychology Test #81
  •  Successful completion of Praxis I (Reading, Writing, Math and Listening)

The starting term for the program is the Fall of each year (early August).  The EdS program utilizes a rolling admissions policy, so applications will be considered throughout the year as they are received.  Students will be accepted into the program until the desired class size is achieved, therefore it is recommended for candidates to submit applications early. 

The Admissions Committee screens applications, invites some applicants for an interview and writing sample, evaluates the applicants and selects the new students.  Following completion of the admissions process, each applicant is notified of the Admissions Committee's decision in writing, including any conditions that must be satisfied prior to or following enrollment.

As an applicant to PCOM's School Psychology program, you are responsible for ensuring that all admissions materials are completed accurately and submitted in a timely manner.

Prior to enrollment, all candidates are required to complete the college's Technical Standards for Admission and Matriculation.
