American Psychological Association-accredited clinical doctor of philosophy (PhD), clinical doctor of psychology (PsyD), counseling, and school psychology doctoral programs were surveyed to assess the importance placed on various admission criteria, including having a master's degree in clinical psychology. In addition, potential benefits of obtaining a master's degree before enrolling in a doctoral program were assessed. Results indicated that clinical PhD programs view a terminal master's degree significantly more negatively than do the other programs. Benefits for terminal master's degree holders included credit transfer and, for those pursuing a PsyD, a more positive view toward the PsyD degree by some academicians. Although all programs reported Graduate Record Examination combined scores, undergraduate grades, and letters of recommendation as clearly important criteria when making admissions decisions, differences were found across programs in the value placed on research experience, journal publication, and work and life experience.
