Candidates must have passed their doctoral qualifying examinations and successfully proposed their dissertation prior to internship interviews.

The Texas Telehealth Internship Consortium utilizes the uniform psychology application (AAPI Online) developed by the Association of Postdoctoral and Psychology Internship Centers (APPIC).
