Costs and Tuition Plans
Tuition for the PSP graduate programs can be paid through one of three plans:
- Per Unit Payment Plan
- Installment Payment Plan (monthly or quarterly) established through an education loan at 10% provided by the School. PSP is not able to provide Federal Stafford Loans.
- Full Payment Plan for the cost of the degree program (paid in full upon enrollment)
Please note that most graduate schools only have a per unit payment plan. PSP's commitment to affordable education is demonstrated in providing program and per unit payment options. The Full Payment Plan for the Doctoral program is $32,000, however, if you paid by unit for this 116 unit program, the per unit total cost would be $45,240. Contract plans provide students with significant savings over per unit payments.
Current tuition rates are as follows:
- Masters Degree Program $335 per unit
- Doctoral Degree Program $390 per unit
Clinical Programs (Under Review Fall 2006)
- Doctor of Psychology -- Track III $32,000
Organizational Program
- Master of Arts in Psychology -- $15,000
- Doctor of Psychology -- $32,000
All students sign contracts which specify their rights and responsibilities. Students who contract for the second or third contract option ‘lock in’ the per unit price at the date of the contract. The contract period for doctoral students extends beyond the class-phase, allowing a reasonable amount of time to complete the dissertation. As with other institutions of higher learning, students who continue past the contract period may be subject to extension fees.
Alumni may take courses at or below their degree level at 50% the per unit cost.
