Argosy University Update

 

MPA acknowledges the challenges faced by Argosy students who were impacted by the closure and are working to provide assistance to our future psychology colleagues. Here are a couple of resources set up for students:

 

1. MPA has established a GoFundMe page in an effort to collect funds to assist students. Please click here to donate and learn more about it.

 

2. The National Register has set up a system by which Argosy students and alumni can bank, at no charge, official and unofficial academic material with the National Register. For additional information, please go to the National Register Website.

 

3. View the recent letter sent by the National Council of Schools and Programs of Professional Psychology (NCSPP) regarding the Argosy Schools closing and possible options for current students.

 

4. View APA's letter to Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos.

 

5. There is a petition set up by Argosy doctoral students to assist them in keeping the Minnesota School of Professional Psychology alive. They are requesting fellow students, faculty, alumni, mental health professional, or concerned citizens to sign their petition.  

 

If you need more assistance or have any questions, feel free to email the student division at studentdivisionmpa@gmail.com.
