Students are invited to attend a Prospective Student Meeting in order to learn whether the major is a good fit. These group meetings are conducted by an academic advisor who will provide information about the program/opportunities in Psychology. All questions will be answered at this meeting. Please stop by the Psychology Advising Office, Room 10 Psychology Building, to sign up for a meeting and to pick up an informational packet.

A minimum 2.75 GPA is required for all psychology and statistics courses taken at U of I at Urbana-Champaign.
