The School Psychology program is a two-year, thesis-based graduate (MA) program that balances theory, practice, and research. It follows a practitioner-scholar model that emphasizes the importance of evidence-based practice and maintaining knowledge of current research.
The School Psychology program at Mount Saint Vincent University builds and extends the foundational knowledge that you have obtained in your undergraduate psychology degree.
Coursework is focused on developing a theoretical understanding of learning and behaviour in a developmental context and conceptual framework for professional practice as a psychologist.
The development of practical skills is integrated throughout all courses in the School Psychology program.
Classroom-based learning is supplemented with intensive practice in school-based intervention and assessment. These practicum experiences culminate in a 600-hour internship.
Becoming a knowledgeable, critical consumer of research is essential to understanding the need for evidence-based practice. Exposure to current research in the field is an integral part of all coursework in the School Psychology program.
You’ll further develop your research skills by completing a master’s thesis. The School Psychology program coordinators will help you to find a thesis supervisor once you begin the program.

Students conditionally admitted to a graduate program of study, who have an IELTS score between 6.5 and 6.9 or the equivalent, will be required to successfully complete the Graduate Preparatory Program (GPP).
The GPP is designed to ensure that incoming graduate students have a high level of English language proficiency and a strong orientation to Canadian academic culture.
The GPP consists of an intensive term-long 15 hour/week program offered by the International Education Centre (IEC) and an undergraduate academic course.
The course is determined by the Graduate Admissions Committee for the student’s intended program of study and indicated on the student’s data form. This course is normally taken concurrently with the IEC program.
