Time to Completion
The Psy.D. Program Handbook includes information about the transfer (or substitution) of course credits (see Transfer of Credits section). The specific transfer/substitution course credit(s) and quantity will likely lead to some custom course sequencing for the individual during one or more semesters in the program that could ultimately lead to graduating earlier than the Degree Completion Plan sequence of five years (4 academic/practicum years and 1 final year of internship). Such a scenario is a case-by-case situation for each individual.
