Those who seek the education and training to engage in the practice of psychology and in the provisions of health services as defined in the North Carolina Practice Act, or expect to become technical assistants to professional psychologists;
Those preparing for positions in which a knowledge of psychology is valuable; and
Those who expect to continue graduate study leading to the doctorate.
