Study psychology in the USA

Psychology is broad and deep. It helps one to prepare for a range of fields that require teamwork, leadership, and a depth of knowledge that can be applied in multiple work and life contexts. It is pivotal, for example, for education, technology, politics, and parenting, as well as counseling.

We are a small college that dreams big. We try to care for students who are far from home while at the same time helping them discern their calling and providing a high-quality education that prepares them for their chosen career.

A psychology degree is increasingly recognized worldwide because the needs are great. For example, currently, we are experiencing the greatest dislocation of individuals from their homelands because of war, poverty, and climate change. The world desperately needs people with psychological sensitivities and trained in psychological constructs who are able to contextualize their knowledge in culture.

Even if students do not major in psychology, taking psychology courses is beneficial, as psychology teaches students critical thinking skills, which are important in all careers and in life. It also teaches skills that help people work well together and form stronger relationships.

Studying in the US is beneficial due to the diversity that international students can encounter, not just in terms of people, but subjects to study, ideas, and geography. International students, particularly those that use school holidays to travel, will be exposed to a wide range of places, people, and ideas.
