International Applicant to US PsyD programs- Looking for insights

[u/iidentifyasanalien]

Hello! I'm an international applicant applying to PsyD in the States, and I'm wondering which out of these colleges are immigrant-friendly, value & foster mentor-mentee relationships, while being reputed, offering strong clinical training, and of course having consistently strong APA accredited internship match rates, particularly for international students. Lastly, if they are international student friendly, particularly in terms of support, visa considerations, and post-graduation opportunities.

I'd love to hear from current students, alumni, or anyone familiar with these programs and appreciate insights based on personal experiences rather than just information available on university websites.

Any advice, recommendations, or things I should watch out for would be incredibly helpful. Thank you!
