Course Info

Summary

MTSU offers two related graduate programs in school psychology: a Master of Arts (M.A.) in Psychology with a Pre-Specialist in Education: School Psychology concentration, and a Specialist in Education (Ed.S.) in Curriculum and Instruction with a School Psychology concentration.

Students typically earn the M.A. degree at the end of their second year of study and the Ed.S. at the end of their third year.

Applicants for unconditional admission must have a bachelor's degree; undergraduate GPA of 3.00; and a GRE score of 291 (current scale) or 900 (former scale) on Verbal and Quantitative combined. Students are selected from a pool of qualified applicants, with the number of students admitted based on the availability of adequate faculty supervision.

Acceptance admits students into the M.A. portion of the school psychology program, and paperwork is required later in the program for admission into the Ed.S. program.

School psychology students may add an Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) specialization.

An Ed.S. is required to be eligible for state licensure or National Certification as a School Psychologist (NCSP).

Students with a master's degree already in psychology or counseling may apply for the Ed.S. in order to re-specialize but will be required to complete deficiencies.

Career Outcomes

MTSU graduates are employed in education as either school psychologists or behavioral analysts. A school psychologist may work in a variety of different environments including public schools, clinics and hospitals, private schools, school health clinics, universities, community agencies, and in private practice.
