UndergradDad Posted December 29, 2019 Posted December 29, 2019 Title says it all. I googled but results were not helpful. With the no GRE idea seemingly gaining momentum does anyone know of any decent programs without a GRE requirement?
rubberduck Posted December 29, 2019 Posted December 29, 2019 The University of Rhode Island doesn't require the general GRE.
xxxxxxxxxx Posted December 29, 2019 Posted December 29, 2019 What are your professional goals? What do you envision doing with your graduate education? Have you looked at the differences between a Ph.D. and a Psy.D? What about other career fields and options (LCSW, etc)? Once you begin to answer these important questions, then you can move towards searching for mentors/programs/schools that can get you there. The bottom line (and you probably know this already): You are severely limiting your career options by focusing on programs that do not require a GRE. For the OP and or other new applicants interested in becoming clinical psychologists: For-profit graduate schools in clinical psychology are a complete and utter disaster- they are mostly known for providing low quality training/opportunities to its students (Google what occurred to hundreds of “students” enrolled at Argosy Schools over the last few years). For the exception of URI, all reputable Ph.D. (and some Psy.D) programs in Clinical Psychology (unfortunately) still require this exam. Through the process of selecting programs/schools for your graduate education, you need to not only focus on the quality of education you’ll potentially be receiving, you also need to understand that following graduation, you would be competing (again) for internship (and eventually jobs in the market) against those candidates who graduated from reputable programs, with impressive CVs, publications, and experiences obtained throughout their graduate education. twotimer and doingmybest 2
CatastrophizingNerd Posted December 30, 2019 Posted December 30, 2019 Didn't Cornell drop their requirement too? Not sure if they got clinical though
foood Posted December 30, 2019 Posted December 30, 2019 Yale and Concordia (Canada) do not require the GRE
