Can I take graduate psychology courses as a non-degree (non-matriculated) student?<\/strong>
\nNo, the Psychology Department does not allow this. However, other programs at 麻豆传媒在线 do allow coursework to be taken in their departments.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

When are the graduate courses offered?<\/strong>
\nWe offer graduate courses during the fall and spring semesters. Some courses are offered during the winter and summer. Classes are offered in the daytime, as well as the late afternoon and evening.<\/em><\/p>\n

If I currently hold a master’s degree, do I still need to submit GRE scores?<\/strong>
\nNo, applicants who possess a master’s degree can have the GRE requirement waived by 麻豆传媒在线 (note: this does NOT apply to PhD applicants).<\/em><\/p>\n

When are the GREs offered?<\/strong>
\nPlease visit the ETS website<\/a> to determine the available dates, times and locations to take the GRE.<\/em><\/p>\n

Are graduate assistantship (GA) positions available in the department?<\/strong>
\nYes, we do offer GA positions and the number of those vary from year to year. They are highly competitive positions. If you are interested in being considered for a GA position, please indicate such on your graduate application. There is not a separate application for this.<\/em><\/p>\n

How do I know what courses I should be taking toward my degree?<\/strong>
\nUpon acceptance, you should contact your Program Director or the Graduate Programs Coordinator in order to prepare\u00a0a work program that will outline the coursework needed for your degree as well as identify electives.<\/em><\/p>\n

What if I decide I’d like to take a different elective from what was indicated on my work program?<\/strong>
\nIf you would like to take another course in the place of a selected one listed on your work program, you must get approval for that course before taking it. Taking a class not listed on your work program without receiving prior approval may cause problems for a student’s ability to complete their remaining requirements and graduate on time.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
