Walden University's Ph.D. in Psychology offers distance education graduate students the ability to choose a concentration in a specific psychological study field such as clinical specialization or counseling. While the coursework is available online, the student still benefits through engaging in clinical fieldwork and fulfilling in-person residency requirements that the course schedules for doctoral students. This 12-quarter doctoral program requires students to maintain a 3.0 GPA in order to graduate, and students will complete the course ready for state licensure exams. Prospective students should contact Walden University through its online admissions department for tuition and financial aid questions.
