Attrition
There are a number of reasons students leave the program prematurely. Examples of reasons include (1) dismissal due to failure to make adequate progress in the program (academic/personal difficulties) or the student's decision to (2) pursue a research area not offered in program, or (3) pursue a degree other than clinical psychology or (4) discontinue due to health/financial/personal concerns.

Professional Licensure
