MA in Psychology New Student Checklist

Psychology MA Checklist

This checklist was developed to assist entering students with their transition to graduate study. Please read it over carefully, and be sure to complete all the items as noted.

You should receive an email from the Information Technology (IT) Department with instructions on how to set up your email and access to all WJC systems. Check your junk/spam folder as it sometimes gets filtered there by your personal email. It is important that you set up your email and check it on a daily basis. You should use your WJC email to communicate with the college and for access to all of our systems.
