Admission Requirements
To be admitted to the psychology program as a major, students must have at least a 2.0 cumulative GPA overall at SIUE or (for transfer students) at the institution where they have earned the majority of their credits.
Transfer
Students who wish to major in psychology and who transfer from community colleges must complete at least 15 hours of 300- and 400-level psychology courses at SIUE (or other accredited four-year institutions and SIUE combined). Students who wish to major in psychology and who transfer from accredited four-year institutions must complete at least 12 hours of psychology courses at SIUE. PSYC 220/221 may not be transferred in to satisfy SIUE psychology requirements. If you are a transfer student just beginning your curriculum at SIUE comparable statistics and research methods courses completed at another four-year university can be evaluated for transfer credit on a case-by-case basis.
