I'm in the same boat as you, Decaf. I'm looking for a graduate program in clinical psychology where I can specialize in neuropsychology (I want to be a clinical rehabilitation neuropsychologist for people with traumatic brain injuries) or just work with faculty members who do work in neuropsych with my desired population. Is this too specific of an interest for me to be looking for in a grad school? I'm having a very difficult time finding grad schools with faculty members who do exactly this, and the ones I do come across, I have no idea what kind of reputation they have. Decaf, what school did you end up finding that has what you want?
Could anybody tell me if any of these schools are any good or not??
Nova Southeastern University School of Professional Psychology
Pacific University School of Professional Psychology
Fielding University (APA-on probation, which makes me nervous)
University of Florida
Adler School of Professional Psychology
My biggest concern is going to a school that is not well-known or of poor reputation and consequently not being able to land a decent job with my degree. I'd like to be a clinical neuropsychologist in a clinic setting...maybe hospital. Any insight on any of these schools would be extremely helpful! I am continuously receiving conflicting information on whether particular schools would be good for me to apply to (e.g. professors at University of Iowa told me to not apply there, or any research-focused program, as they only want to accept students who will go into research or teaching as a profession, but I was told by a clinical neuropsychologist that several clinicians do get training there....so do I or do I not apply?!)
Thanks!
