Accredited Internship and Postdoctoral Programs
for Training in Psychology

(May 6, 2008)

Public Notice

  • The following notice is provided as a public service by the APA Office of Program Consultation and Accreditation consistent with a Web listing protocol recommended by the Association of Specialized and Professional Accreditors (ASPA).
  • This section of the APA Office of Program Consultation and Accreditation Web site contains the only official Web list of professional psychology programs accredited by the APA Commission on Accreditation.
  • This is provided for informational purposes only and should not be used for official credential review.
  • This Web site does not contain a full historical record of accredited programs. You may contact the Office of Program Consultation and Accreditation for verification of prior accreditation.
  • The Office of Program Consultation and Accreditation is not responsible for the accuracy of any accredited status representations on any other Web site.
  • For an official hardcopy list of the accredited programs listed below, please contact the Office of Program Consultation and Accreditation at 202-336-5979 or email apaaccred.

Information Provided on this Web Site

  • The Commission on Accreditation (CoA) has accredited the doctoral internship and postdoctoral residency training programs in professional psychology offered by the agencies listed below.
  • The original date of accreditation, listed for each program, is the day on which the program’s accredited status became effective.
  • The listing for each program includes the date of the next regularly scheduled site visit. Those programs visited prior to 2007 for which no final decisions had been reached at the time of this posting are listed as next site visit not yet scheduled.
  • To obtain more information on training offered, requirements for admission, and outcomes of specific programs, the reader is encouraged to contact the program directly.

About the Accreditation Process

  • Program review is governed by the Guidelines and Principles for Accreditation of Programs in Professional Psychology (G&P). A hardcopy of this document is available from the APA Office of Program Consultation and Accreditation upon request.
  • The CoA accepts third-party comment on programs in advance of their next scheduled reviews. For details on providing comment, please refer to Section 7 of the Accreditation Operating Procedures or contact the Program Consultation and Accreditation Office by telephone at (202) 336-5979
  • Accreditation is a voluntary process. Programs that have not applied for accreditation are not included in the list. Programs that have applied for initial accreditation after July 1, 2005 are listed on the Accreditation Web site.
  • A list of programs accredited by the Canadian Psychological Association (CPA) is available on the CPA Web site. The APA and CPA are in the process of phasing out concurrent accreditation. Beginning on September 1, 2015, the APA will no longer accredit programs in Canada.

Accreditation Statuses

  • Programs listed as accredited have been judged by the CoA to be consistent substantively and procedurally with the G&P.
  • Programs listed as accredited, on probation, are, in the CoA’s judgment, not currently consistent with all aspects of the G&P.
  • Programs listed as accredited, inactive have no interns/residents in a given training year.
  • Any programs that applied for accreditation and were reviewed but were denied accreditation after completion of the evaluation process will be listed in the programs denied accreditation section following the main listing. Denial of accreditation designates an applicant program for which the CoA has evidence that the program is inconsistent with the G&P.
  • The accreditation status listed for each program reflects that program’s current accredited status. If a review of a program is not complete or the decision is not final, the program’s prior accreditation status continues to be in effect until the review has been completed and a final decision has been reached.
