Attrition
There are a number of reasons students leave the program prematurely. Most frequently these involve the student's decision to (1) pursue a research area not offered in program or (2) pursue a degree other than clinical psychology. Less frequently these reasons are for (3) health/personal concerns or (4) failure to make adequate progress in the program (academic/personal difficulties).
