    1.- Admissions Requirements

    Before being admitted into any graduate program, either MA or PhD, the applicant's undergraduate preparation must include a course in psychological statistics and 12 hours of upper-division courses in psychology including a course in experimental psychology.

    Although applications are accepted by the Graduate School throughout the year, decisions regarding applications for admission to the graduate programs in Psychology are made once per year, for the fall term. Applicants must submit all required documents by February 1. Applications not completed by February 1 will be considered for admission for the following year. Decisions regarding admissions are made by the Psychology Graduate Program Committee and the Graduate School. Admission is competitive.

    In addition to the General Requirements for Admission into a Graduate Program established by the Graduate School, the Psychology Department requires that specific documents be sent directly to the Graduate Program Director to complete the application process for graduate programs in Psychology. The address to which these documents must be sent is:

    Graduate Program Director
    Department of Psychology
    University of Texas at El Paso
    El Paso, Texas 79968-0553

    The documents required are:

    1. A copy of the completed application for admission submitted to the Graduate School;
    2. A copy of all transcripts submitted to the Graduate School;
    3. A copy of official GRE aptitude test scores (note: the Psychology Department requires GRE scores of all applicants regardless of other advanced degrees);
    4. A two to three page personal statement outlining your experiences, skill, training, and career goals and how the program will benefit your professional development; and
    5. Three letters of reference from individuals who can evaluate your potential for graduate academic work and future professional contributions.
