Estimated loan burden for CUA using 4 years of in-state tuition, $1,500 annual fees, $3,000 monthly living expenses, government-derived local cost-of-living adjustment, $1,000 loan fees, and an 8.5% interest assumption.
Cost of Living: Above national average cost of living

About the School
The clinical psychology program at The Catholic University of America has been accredited by APA since 1948 and has consistently been grounded in a scientist-practitioner educational model. The program endeavors to create a diverse and supportive community in which students develop the skills needed to become excellent clinical psychologists. Its mission is to produce clinical psychologists who are knowledgeable regarding the science of psychology and ready to add to its development, proficient in applying this knowledge in a variety of clinical settings, and who integrate the science and practice of clinical psychology. Graduates from our program also acquire the knowledge, behavior, and attitudes necessary for successful functioning as a psychologist (for example, knowing how to practice ethically, to work with diverse individuals, to integrate science and practice, to apply critical thinking skills to one’s work, and to develop effective professional relationships). In addition, the program has an elective focus in Children, Families, and Cultures.
