The Master of Arts Clinical Psychology Program is a terminal master's program offered at the UCF Sanford/Lake Mary Campus. The program consists of two tracks:

Applied Pre-Licensure/Non-Thesis Track: The Applied Pre-Licensure/Non-Thesis Track is designed for students interested in delivering clinical services in a variety of settings including community agencies and private practice. After completing the program and after two years of postgraduate supervised clinical experience, graduates are eligible to become Licensed Mental Health Counselors (LMHCs) in the state of Florida.

Research/Thesis Track: The Research/Thesis Track is designed for students who wish to focus on clinical research and/or are interested in pursuing entry into a doctoral program following the completion of their Master's degree. Students who complete this option are not eligible to become Licensed Mental Health Counselors upon graduation.

Please visit the program's website for more information, including a list of program faculty members, and frequently asked questions (FAQs), including additional information about each track: https://sciences.ucf.edu/psychology/graduate/ma-clinical/.
