PhD in School Psychology: Fordham/Maryland/URI/UConn

[S J]

Hi all! I'm deciding among a few acceptances for a PhD in School Psychology. My interests are in diversity/cross-cultural issues in school psychology. I hope to begin my career working in public high schools, but may eventually pursue private practice or research.

I am deciding between Fordham, University of Maryland, University of Rhode Island, and University of Connecticut. Does anyone know anything (good/bad) about these programs? Research fit is great for all of them. Thank you!

Hi, school psych doc student here with similar research interests. My rankings would be:

1. UM

2. UConn

3. Rhode Island

Not sure why you are getting a PhD if you just want to work in schools!

Thank you, @iphi! I am getting a PhD because I would like to leave the door open to eventually pursuing research or private practice.
