Note to Clinical Psychology Training Program Applicants:
Each year we invite approximately the top 25 students who we believe will be a good match for our program to our Interview Weekend. For 2008, Interview Weekend is scheduled for Friday, February 15th through Sunday, February, 17th. If you are strongly considering the University of Nebraska - Lincoln's Clinical Psychology Training Program, please save these dates. Although we realize that circumstances sometimes require that an applicant conduct a phone interview rather than visiting in person, we have found that students who attend our Interview Weekend are in a far better position to evaluate the merits of our program. We typically extend invitations to attend Interview Weekend about one month prior to the weekend.
