Post Degree Blues

[TMW2010]

But I would want it to be clinical psychology, and I can't find any APA accredited distance education clinical psychology programs, and an AMA accredited degree is a requirement for a license in my state (Georgia).

There is one APA accredited Clinical Psychology degree that can be done via DL, but it requires 7 or more residencies and costs $24,900/year with an expected length of six years, plus travel (estimated $2,400/year), Orientation/Session costs ($4,000/year) and Books and Supplies ($2,400/year) for a total estimated cost of $33,700/year, or $202,200 for the degree. But hey, at least it's nonprofit.

If you're close to Atlanta, you could go to (for-profit) Argosy's on campus Clinical Psychology (PsyD) program for a bit less. The Atlanta location has just had its APA accreditation extended for the max 7 years allowed before renewal by the APA. And Argosy doesn't require a Master's; it takes you through the full cycle there as well.
