  1. I don't mind! Has anyone found specialist programs that are fully or mostly funded? I know about University of Delaware, but can't seem to really find any others.
  2. Oh wow, 3-4 years plus internship isn't bad! The PhD programs I found say 5-7 years, but when I've looked at the data for how long it's taken past students, it seems like the average is 6-7. I haven't seen many 5 years, but I guess it all depends on how long the dissertation takes?
  3. Yay I'm glad there's more of you on here! I feel really behind too that I'm still finalizing my list, but I'm forcing myself to decide this week. I don't want to fully rule-out schools based on their location, but some of these programs are in really random places haha. I'm also trying to find out info about financial aid from all these schools because EdS programs are expensive! Thanks for the advice iphi. I do really like the research aspect of the PhD even though I don't have research experience in a psychology lab. I actually wanted to do education policy before this, so I am interested in research on a lot of school topics. The length of the PhD is the main thing throwing me off, but I think I'll still apply to a couple. Good luck everyone!
  4. Hi, I'm thinking of applying to this program for Fall 2014 too! I'm a little confused that it's 4 years though instead of 3 (like most specialist degree school psych programs). So I'm a little hesitant to spend one more year there if I could get the same level of degree somewhere else. Anyone have any info on this?
  5. Hi, is anyone applying to School Psychology programs for Fall 2014? Or can anyone from past years offer any advice on the process? I'm very overwhelmed by just finalizing what schools to apply to haha. How many schools is it recommended to apply to? I want to apply to specialist degree programs, but since PhD programs are generally free, I'm thinking of applying to a couple of those as well. I like having the option to do research later with the PhD, but I am more set on just working in schools. I'm also nervous about getting accepted to PhD programs because I have no research experience. I've taught preschool for the past 2 years though. I'm thinking about Tufts, Columbia, Northeastern, UMass Boston, University of Florida, University of Central Florida, and University of South Florida.
