Practicum and Residency Requirements
• Prior to obtaining the Ph.D. degree, a student must complete a full-year (2000-hour), full-time residency at a CPA accredited residency training facility (or equivalent); as well as a minimum of 600 practicum hours (as per CPA criteria) in our program, prior to applying for residency.• To be considered for residencies, however, data from our recent residency applicants suggests that students should aim to acquire significantly more than the 600 hour CPA minimum. That is, by the time they apply in November of the year preceding their anticipated residencies, students should have logged an overall total of at least 1100 practicum hours, of which at least 300 should be direct clinical contact hours.
