Thus far, it's been very labor-intensive. However, I just bought this guide and it's incredibly helpful. Not only does it go through the process of how to apply, have a successful interview, etc, but it also breaks down schools by program. It has both PhD and PsyD programs with helpful information about: average GPA, GRE scores, the percentage of students receiving tuition assistance and/or assistantships, the areas of research interests that the faculty have, clinical opportunities, whether a personal interview is required, the number who apply vs. the number accepted, a scale which rates how research-oriented vs. clinically oriented the program is, and much more. It also has an appendix which lists colleges by research areas and clinical areas. This book is absolutely fantastic and has made my life much easier. I'd highly suggest it to anyone looking to go to grad school for their PhD or PsyD in Clinical Psychology. They also have some information on Counseling Psychology programs. Buy it and I guarantee you'll thank yourself for it later.
Product Review
"Students need to realize that the Insider's Guide is much more than a shopping list of statistics about programs to be picked up just before sending off the first wave of applications. In fact, this is a resource that all students seriously considering careers in professional psychology will find valuable as soon as they declare their major. In addition to helping students decide where to apply, the book offers advice on undergraduate course selection, describes the various career options available within professional psychology, and guides the reader in writing letters of inquiry, preparing for interviews, and deciding where to go once accepted. For students who would benefit from a well-structured, concise set of guidelines and useful checklists, this book fits the bill."--Bryan D. Fantie, PhD, Psi Chi Advisor; Department of Psychology, American University
