University of Oklahoma

Fully accredited since 1988 by the APA, the University of Oklahoma’s Department of Education Psychology and the Jeannine Rainbolt College of Education offers a Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology. While this program has traditionally followed the scientist-practitioner training model, they are moving toward a scientist-practitioner-advocate training model to offer culturally responsive services, especially to traditionally marginalized populations, that reflect the belief that professional roles, including practitioner, researcher, teacher, consultant, and supervisor, involve social consequences and social responsibilities.

The application deadline for enrollment is January 10^th, with classes starting in the fall.

Tuition for full-time in-state students is around $175 per credit hour, while out-of-state student pay about $650 per credit hour. This does not include associated costs and fees, including books, travel, and student services. General assistantship appointments are available for Counseling Psychology doctor students, and they usually include a full tuition waiver and a basic health insurance subsidy. Over the last several years, all students in the Counseling Psychology program who applied for general assistantships have been funded for the duration of their study, but priority is given to first and second year students. There are additional scholarships, fellowships, and grants that are also available to doctoral students.

A graduate student must maintain a minimum 3.0 GPA in all graduate coursework, falling under that mark will lead to academic probation. If a graduate student is placed on academic probation 3 times, he or she will be disenrolled from the doctoral program.
