• Graduate Study in Psychology and Associated Fields, by APA. This indispensable resource can be used in a library or ordered through a bookstore. Requirements and decriptions of all graduate programs in psychology can be found in this publication.

• The Complete Guide to Graduate School Admission by Patricia Keith-Spiegel.
