What if I complete the PsyD program but want to live and work in another state?
A. Several of our previous graduates have successfully completed the PsyD program and later moved to another state with little or no problems. In addition to becoming certified as a school psychologist in New York, graduates of the PsyD program are also nationally certified by the National Association of School Psychologists (NASP). This does NOT mean students are nationally certified in any state; rather, it means they have met a national standard of quality. However, about 50% of U.S. states currently accept national certification for state certification. As such, students graduating from the PsyD program who desire to live and work in states other than New York have not had significant problems doing so.
