Priority Application Deadlines

• June 15 - Fall Semester/Quarter
  - (March 15 for those interested in financial aid)
• November 1 - Spring Semester /Quarter
  - (October 1 for internationals not in the US)
• April 1 - Summer Semester
• December 1 - Ph.D. in Psychology
• February 1 - Ph.D. in Economics

Most Masters and Certificate programs at Suffolk University have rolling admission, and thus the deadlines above are priority deadlines.  Applications will still be accepted after those dates, but admission will be dependent upon space available in the individual program.  The PhD in Clinical Psychology does not have a rolling admission policy, and applications must be recieved by the deadline for consideration. 

Applicants for the PhD in Clinical Psychology program are strongly recommended to send all supporting materials in a single envelope, and envelopes must be clearly marked "Graduate Admission/Psychology."  This will improve our ability to get application packets to the department for consideration faster, and ensure the competeness of the application packge.

The Office of Graduate Admission recommends that applicants keep copies of all materials submitted, and request third parties (such as those writing recommendation letters) to maintain copies as well in the event of items being lost in the mail or other unforseen circumstances. Recommenders should be reminded to include the applicant’s full legal name in their correspondence, in order to assure that letters get matched to the appropriate candidate.
