For Students

Prospective Ph.D. Students

Dr. Sonya Troller-Renfree is currently unsure of whether a doctoral student will be accepted for Fall 2025. 

Prospective students are strongly encouraged to carefully review Dr. Troller-Renfree's website and recent publications on which Dr. Troller-Renfree is first or second author prior to applying to gauge potential fit. Potential students should follow application instructions provided by the Department of Human Development Developmental Psychology Program. Due to the number of applicants, individual conversations with prospective students generally do not occur until after applications are submitted, at which time top candidates are invited for an initial interview. However, if you would like to indicate your interest prior to application, feel free to complete this Google Form (instead of emailing). 

See her Frequently Asked Questions page for more information about applying.
