Temporary COVID-19 Emergency Admission GRE Exam Waiver

We, in the Department of Psychology at FIU, do not believe barriers outside one’s control should be an impediment to personal and professional development. Therefore, we will waive the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) requirement in graduate admissions in the upcoming admissions cycle for our doctoral and master's programs. We will continue to evaluate applicants using a holistic approach that examines a variety of indicators of academic potential. This temporary emergency waiver applies for doctoral applicants applying to begin graduate training in the Fall 2021 and Fall 2022 semesters. For master's applicants, only to those applying to begin graduate training in the Fall 2021 and Spring 2022 semesters. If you have any questions, please visit each program's page above for further admission requirements and contact information.

Information on Judicial Holds

Although we are required to include questions in our application that ask about previous experiences with disciplinary charges and criminal offenses, we do not want these questions to discourage anyone with these experiences from applying to our programs. Responding “yes” to these questions does not preclude applicants from being considered for admission to our programs. It does place a “judicial hold” on the application that can be resolved through the Student Conduct and Academic Integrity (SCAI) Admissions Clearance Process confidentially. Moreover, responses to these questions will not be shared with faculty reviewing applications—regardless of the applicant’s responses—so as to maintain confidentially and reduce bias throughout the review process.

 Instructions for resolving judicial holds can be found here: https://studentaffairs.fiu.edu/get-support/student-conduct-and-academic-integrity/application-holds/index.php.

If you have any questions about this process, you can contact the SCAI team by phone at 305-348-3939 or email at conduct@fiu.edu, or the graduate secretary in the Department of Psychology by email at psygrad@fiu.edu.
