Accreditation
George Fox University's Graduate School of Clinical Psychology is accredited by the American Psychological Association (APA).* While the PsyD degree provides training in the scientific foundations of psychology and in research methods and statistics, it places greater emphasis on the development of clinical skills.
The PsyD program received a highly favorable review by the APA during its last re-accreditation visit in 2017. A 10-year reaccreditation period was awarded, the longest interval allowed.
George Fox is one of only six governing members of the Council for Christian Colleges & Universities in the U.S. with an APA-accredited PsyD program.
