Dear Mr. Short:

Thank you for your inquiry regarding graduate work in our Department of Psychology. However, we do not encourage students whose native language is not English to undertake graduate work in psychology here at the University of Pittsburgh. The reason for this is that our program is highly theoretical and experimental in nature. Dealing with theoretical psychology requires extremely high competence in English. It has been our experience that foreign students have not done well, in our program.

We therefore encourage foreign students to seek admission to graduate programs in psychology which are much more applied and less theoretical in nature than ours is.

We are sorry we could not be of more help to you.
