Application for Admission

Admissions requirements for the training program in Child and Adolescent Analysis are flexible. Students may enter when they are advanced candidates in adult analysis or after they have completed adult analytic training. We also offer stand-alone training in child and adolescent analysis for students who have training and experience in working with children and adolescents and do not wish to train in adult analysis.

In the course of the admissions procedure, each applicant will be seen by interviewers from the Admissions Committee, a subcommittee of the Education Committee. Applicants are notified as soon as the Education Committee reaches a decision.
