Carolyn’s Answer

Hi there! The information that Jasmin provided is super helpful! I would also suggest thinking about whether or not you want to be involved in research during your undergraduate career. If so, I would suggest finding schools that have psychology labs doing research that you are interested in! Also, looking at program requirements for the major at each college is important. Do they require an internship? Practicum? If the schools you want to go to have a large alumni network, it would be worth seeing if you could connect with someone who has a career that lines up with your interests!

best of luck!
