Brief Overview of the School Psychology Program at NC State

The NC State School Psychology Program is a PhD-level program accredited by the American Psychological Association (Committee on Accreditation http://www.apa.org/ed/accreditation; 202 336-5979) and approved by the National Association of School Psychologists (NASP). The Program is divided into two phases. Completion of Phase I results in a MS degree in psychology; completion of Phase II results in a PhD degree. Graduates are eligible for licensure as health services provider psychologists in North Carolina and other states, as well as for the nationally certified school psychologist (NCSP) credential. Students admitted to the Program are expected to complete Phases I and II; those seeking only Master's level training are encouraged to apply to other programs. The Program also welcomes applications from persons with specialist degrees in school psychology or master's degrees in other areas of psychology who are interested in pursuing PhD level training in school psychology. Program graduates are employed as psychologists in public schools, diagnostic centers, and research and academic institutions.
