Entry requirements

Note: Until summer 2026, the MS in Psychology also included three terminal MS degree tracks: (1) the Thesis Track as part of the 4+1 MS Program (for Tulane Alumni only), (2) the Non-Thesis (Course-Based) Track as part of the 4+1 MS Program (Tulane and Xavier Alumni only), and (3) the Accelerated (1.5-Year) Non-Thesis (Course-Based) Track for External Applicants. Students are responsible for reviewing university, school, and program requirements, along with prerequisites and the sequencing of courses in coordination with their program advisor.
