Greetings!

Thank you for your interest in U.C. Irvine's APA-Accredited Predoctoral Internship Program. Our internship program has been accredited for more than twenty years.

We will utilize the APPIC system for the selection process. Their website http://www.appic.org will provide important information on the internship notification process.
