Tuition and fees are payable in advance. Admission to courses will be authorized only when fees and previous indebtedness are paid, unless arrangements are made with the Business Manager. Students who do not notify the Registrar of inability to attend a course prior to its first session will be charged one-half the fee for the course. After the second session of the course the full tuition fee will be charged. Full tuition is required for the first four years. Tuition for candidates in Division I is $1500 per trimester. This fee covers all required courses and required electives for each of the first twelve trimesters. Candidates may also enroll in one additional elective course or one course in the Center for Applied Psychoanalysis each semester without payment of additional fees. After four years of training, i.e. twelve trimesters, tuition is reduced by half. An administrative fee is charged for each trimester a candidate is on leave of absence. Candidates are required to pay an annual fee of $35 for library use and $150 for course materials with their first trimester’s tuition. Fees for personal psychoanalysis and for psychoanalysis under supervision are determined by mutual arrangement between each candidate and his or her training or supervising analyst. However, fees for psychoanalytic supervision are not to exceed $60 per session. Upon
successful completion of the prescribed program, a fee of $200 is

upon written request of the student and will require a service fee
of $25. All checks should be made payable to The William Alanson
White Institute Candidates who satisfactorily complete the full program of training will be granted the Certificate in Psychoanalysis. The program will ordinarily require four to six years. Course credit is given only to those who fulfill all requirements and whose absences do not exceed 20 percent of the total hours of each course or when appropriate the guidelines of accrediting organizations will take precedence. Decision as to successful completion of training is made by a vote of the Council of Fellows, upon recommendation by the Training Committee. As in the case of admission to the program, readiness for graduation is not based solely on scholastic and technical competence. The candidate’s personal and professional integrity, clinical proficiency, soundness of judgment and commitment to the profession will be considered by the Training Committee following completion of all academic requirements. Certificates
are not awarded for studies undertaken in the Center The Institute has been approved by the Attorney General of the United States as an educational institution which may be attended by foreign students under Section 4(e) of the Immigration Act of 1952. Some foreign students who plan to return to their
countries of origin and are unable to complete the required program
may obtain limited training in psychoanalysis at the Institute,
for which certificates are not awarded. Candidates may apply to become a clinic fellow at the Clinical Services of the William Alanson White Institute. This program is designed to provide affordable fees to patients while providing an opportunity for candidates to earn credits toward their training fees and expenses. Your expenses include your personal analysis (3X/wk); tuition ($5000.00 year); analytic supervision (up to $60.00 per session); and a monthly clinic administration fee based on your caseload ($50 for 5-10 case; $100 for 11 or more cases). You may accumulate a total debt up to $2500 but you should be able to provide other sources of income to cover the totality of your training expenses. Clinic fellows may commit from 5-20 patient hours per week and are credited $25.00 per treatment session. You may charge your tuition and up to $35.00 per analytic or supervision sessions. If you have special financial needs please do not hesitate to contact us for consideration. Fellows are expected to attend the clinic seminar on Tuesday afternoon and, if possible, the clinic conference at 10:00 A.M. Clinic Fellows are encouraged to begin treating patients in the summer before classes. Additional Benefits of the Fellowship: 1) Patients, upon completion of 40 weeks of clinic treatment, may be transferred into the candidate's private practice. After two years as a clinic fellow, candidates have developed a fairly substantial private practice from their clinic patients. 2) If space is available, the clinic may provide up to five free, off- peak hours per week for the candidate to treat their former clinic patients and private patients. Candidates must maintain their own private malpractice insurance for this option 3) Fellows receive free supervision for clinic patients. 4) Psychologists may use the clinic fellowship to fulfill the New York State licensing requirement of a year of postdoctoral training. A written proposal must be submitted and approved for this arrangement. Candidates agree to comply with the ethical guidelines of their constituent professional organizations and the Code of Ethics of the William Alanson White Institute.
