Application Information

Our program participates in the selection procedure as suggested by the Association of Psychology Internship Centers (APPIC). The internship site agrees to abide by the APPIC policies. No person at this training facility will solicit, accept or use any ranking-related information from any intern applicant. All interviews are on an invitation-only basis and will be conducted virtually.

As an APPIC member, we use the standard AAPI (APPIC Application for Psychology Internship) online application process. When searching for our program on the APPI, please use the program code 1519 or the abbreviated program name (OUHSC). Each applicant is to submit a complete set of application materials to AAPI online. **The application deadline is November 8. Please note this is a date change from Nov. 4th.**

A fully completed application set includes;

1. Standard  On-line APPIC Application  
2. Letter of Interest
3. Three letters of recommendation
4. Official transcripts

In your letter of interest, which is part of the standard online application, please indicate your funding source preference(s) out of those that we offer. Put this information in bold print near the top of your interest letter. During the interview day, candidates will have a general program orientation, meet with faculty from their funding source preference, and have an opportunity to learn more about the other emphasis areas. Since all trainees are required to have assessment and therapy for adults and children, we provide exposure to the other emphasis areas that will give the candidate the opportunity to learn more about non-preferred rotations. 

Note that we have 2 different funding sources. These funding sources are as follows:

1. Clinical Neuropsychology - Match #151914 -2 positions
2. Child Clinical Psychology (Center for Child Abuse and Neglect/ Child Study Center) - Match #151915 -1 position
3. Pediatric Psychology/ Children's Hospital of Oklahoma - Match #151917-1 position

You can apply to any combination of the above funding sources. List your desired funding source(s) in bold print near the top of your interest letter. You will only be considered for the funding source(s) that you list in your letter of interest.

A selection committee will be reviewing each application. As we must limit the number of applicants who interview, all interviews are on an invitation-only basis. We normally notify all applicants selected for an interview by December 9th. We complete all interviews before February 1. We have Christmas holidays from December 22 through January 1st during which time we do not schedule visits. Interviews will be conducted virtually and are typically scheduled two weeks in advance. The program is considering two dates for an Open House for candidates that wish to visit the campus. If you choose not to attend an Open House that will not impact your ability to match at our site.

** IMPORTANT, REGARDING NOTIFICATION**
It is highly encouraged for all applicants to check their spam and trash folders daily. Those applicants that have a personal or school Gmail email account are known to have the most issue with the email notification. If you have an email account that is not Gmail or Gmail contracted, please submit that account so that we may have an alternate email account in which you may receive your notification of status from us.
