 " I attended for both my master's and doctoral degrees. Overall, I had a more positive experience in the master's program. I felt supported by all the professors and felt challenged in my clinical work. In general, I found professors not as engaged in the doctoral program and having expectations that did not fit a clinical degree. The school is extremely expensive and there are not many scholarship options making it difficult to manage the life/work/school balance. "

 " The school is too big and does not do well in providing individual support to the students. You are a number. It has come close to losing accreditation multiple times. Each year has its own set of guidelines and rules that apply which makes asking for support and help difficult and it even confuses the staff. "

 " This was a great program that held it's values in training from different disciplines, however it's starting to lose focus of his core value in order to satisfy APA. It's a Psy.D program trying to be like a Ph.D program without the benefits of what Ph.D programs offer to their students. Professors are what make the program worth while given the circumstance.

 " I have really enjoyed my educational experience at WJC. My professors and colleagues have been supportive and great to learn with. My program in particular offers flexibility in that students can either be blended/online only and full-time/part-time. I know many students, including myself, that started their masters here and then continued on to their doctorate. "

 " Offers a lot of different areas of study within the field of psychology. Opportunities to work with many different students and professors. Opportunities for research and clinical field experience from the first year of training. "
