Instructions for Clinical Psychology Internship Applications
2013 - 2014 Academic Year

 

The Clinical Psychology Training Consortium prefers students currently matriculated in an American Psychological Association (APA) accredited doctoral program in Clinical Psychology.   Successful applicants to our program typically come from training programs with a strong clinical science or scientist practitioner emphasis. 

All candidates for admission will have adequate preparation for internship as indicated by a statement from the applicant’s Program Director.  We require a minimum of 800 contact hours of formal, supervised practicum training. 

The internship year starts on July 1st. The Clinical Psychology Internship Training Program observes the guidelines regarding timing of internship offers and acceptances adopted by the Association of Psychology Postdoctoral and Internship Centers (APPIC) and the Counsel of University Directors of Clinical and Counseling Programs. This internship site agrees to abide by the APPIC policy that no person at this training facility will solicit, accept or use any ranking-related information from any internship applicant. The Alpert Medical School of Brown University is an Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action employer and actively encourages applications from women, minorities, and protected persons.
