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 (OU). Each applicant is to submit a complete set of application materials to AAPI online. **The application deadline has been extended to November 3rd, 2025.** 

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 training position preference(s) out of those that we offer. Put this information in bold print near the top of your interest letter. The training positions and numbers available for recruitment are as follows:

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

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

During the interview day, candidates will have a general program orientation, meet with faculty from their training position preference, and have an opportunity to meet the current trainees. Please note that all trainees are required to have assessment and therapy for adults and children, therefore the program provides information to learn about non-preferred emphasis rotations.
