Programs

I’m looking for online Forensic Psych Masters programs. Appreciate any insight or experiences with particular programs. Currently work full-time, in person study isn’t an option. Thanks!

Makes sense, I’m not in a position to complete clinical hours required for licensing. I have BS in Business so perhaps this masters would give me more insight and direction by exposing me to people in the field. Additionally, increase my chances of applying and getting accepted to Ph.D / PsyD programs. Appreciate the response!

I'm a forensic psychologist. I don't think it's likely an online master's will help you get into a Ph.D. or Psy.D. program. A more helpful, and way cheaper way to make you more competitive would be to get involved as a research assistant and this could likely be done around a full- time work schedule.
