Pathways to Psychology for Transfer Students

Leaving one college to enroll in another school can be confusing.  At Western we want to turn the confusion into confidence.

Yes, you will be learning about a new campus, new professors and new courses, but these changes should be exciting and full of possibility.  We believe our university, our faculty and our program are a great combination.  We think you will find that our combination can be just right as your next college and as your pathway into psychology. 

What does the pathway to WCU look like?

Are you graduating with an Associate's degree? 
 
Are you transferring after completing your General Education core? 

Are you transferring after completing fewer than 44 credits?

 

Psychological Services Clinic
The department also is home to the WCU Psychological Services Clinic, a not-for-profit training program that allows our graduate students to provide services to the public under the supervision of clinical and/or school psychology faculty.
