Admission
There are three opportunities to begin the program each year.
The upcoming start date is:
August 20, 2023
We encourage you to apply as early as possible before the start of each term to allow sufficient time for application evaluation.
Admission requirements
Online Master of Science in Psychology candidates must have a baccalaureate degree from an accredited college or university. There are no prerequisites and you may apply with an undergraduate degree in any field.
