Bachelor of Arts in Psychology: Accelerated Path to the Master of Arts in Marital and Family Therapy

1. Students in the undergraduate psychology program at Alliant who hope to pursue a Master of Arts in Marital and Family Therapy and who meet the minimum requirements set out here may be eligible for conditional acceptance into the MA in MFT once they reach the second semester of their junior year in the Bachelor of Arts Degree Completion Program in Psychology. Minimum requirements include the following:
        • Cumulative 3.3 GPA (All College Work)
        • Interview by MFT Program Faculty/Staff
   
2. Students who are conditionally admitted will need to meet the following requirements to be fully admitted.
        • Completion of the BA in Psychology
        • 3.3 GPA

Students who are conditionally admitted to the MFT MA will follow the curriculum outlined below in which they will substitute three graduate-level courses (in bold) for the undergraduate courses normally required. These three graduate courses will satisfy requirements for both the bachelor’s and the master’s programs, thus giving the students a three-course head start on the master’s degree by the time they complete their BA.
