1) APA style – first person is fine for this assignment

number of pages to adequately cover. Remember that this assignment is 50% of your grade.
You should treat this assignment as an assignment worth 50% of your grade.

your situation.

a. Some questions will only apply to certain career choices and/or degrees/schools.

answers may not be knowable (but for some situations they will be).
4) Please include a title page, student paper, APA format.
5) Please include a references page, using your textbook for the course as the source. I want to

Part 1: Career choices

1. List your top 2-3 career choices (or more if you have more) for psychology careers – you may
reference your textbook

2. Research the following for each career choice:
a. Educational requirements
b. Expected pay or salary range
c. Common or typical job responsibilities (e.g. is it clinical work or non-clinical, typical

populations of people you work with, job expectations, etc.)
d. Overall job outlook

i. Potential of finding a job in this field
ii. Is it a growing field?

iii. Potential path to get to that job – sometimes you have to start in one place to
get to another

3. Why are these your top choices? Why did you rank them in this order? What makes your top
choice more preferable than your other choices?

4. Are there any bachelor’s level jobs you would consider?
a. If so, what are those jobs and why would you consider them?
b. If not, why would you not consider them?

Part 2: Education

1. What degree programs are you considering? (e.g. PhD, PsyD, master’s)
a. Why are you considering these degrees?
b. Would you be able to do your career with different degrees (e.g. could you do your job

with a master’s in counseling or a Psy.D. or would you need a Psy.D.?)
c. Would you need any specializations either in grad school or even post-doctoral work?

d. Is there a residency, internship, or post-doctoral work?
2. What schools are you considering attending after graduation? (note you might be considering

one school for multiple degree options if you’re undecided)
a. List your top 2-3 schools (or more if necessary depending on job/career choices)
b. Why are they your top schools? What stands out about them?
c. What are their admission requirements? Do they have any GRE or GPA requirements?

Do you have to submit any writing examples?
d. When is their application deadline? Do they accept students once a year or twice a

year?
e. What percentage of applicants are typically admitted? (How many applicants do they

typically receive versus how many they actually accept?)
f. What are applicants’ typical GPA and GRE scores who are admitted?
g. What does the total cost of tuition to go there for the degree you are seeking (assume a

normal time-frame of completion)?
h. Do they offer any scholarships, research assistantships, teaching assistantships, or

grants?
i. Does the school participate in any research that you might be interested in

participating?

Part 3: Job Openings

1. Research a few job openings for your chosen careers. Try to find at least 1-2 job postings for
each career you chose in part 1.

2. Did you find many job openings for that chosen career or only a few?
3. Did you find any jobs locally (either in this area or where you are hoping to live)? Or are the jobs

in areas you would not mind living?
4. What populations are being served (particularly if a clinical job – even for non-clinical your work

may still have applications to certain populations of people or organizations – e.g. working
professionals or developing assessments for cities)?

5. What are the requirements for each job? How are they similar or different? How does salary
compare?

6. What are the job responsibilities (note some listings may give a VERY long list – just summarize –
I’m not applying for the job. Just communicate to me the major things)

Part 4: Next Steps
What are your next steps for the Spring semester? (e.g. taking the GRE, applying to schools, talking
with schools, visiting schools, etc.)
