What Psychological Clinical Science Accreditation System Inc does
Mission
The psychological clinical science accreditation system (pcsas) is an independent, nonprofit organization whose aim is to provide rigorous, objective, and empirically based accreditation of ph.d. Programs in clinical psychology that adhere to a clinical science training model -- one that increases the quality and quantity of clinical scientists contributing to all aspects of public health and extends the science base for mental health care.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
To date pcsas has accredited 48 programs in the united states and canada, with many others in various stages of the application process. These programs are among the most highly regarded in the field. For example, all 20 of the us news & world report's 20 top-ranked clinical psychology programs are pcsas accredited. Thirty-nine pcsas programs in the u.s. Are ranked in the top 50 (u.s. News only ranks u.s. Programs). And all 48 pcsas programs are ranked highly by the national academy of sciences; have graduates who score higher on average than those non-pcsas programs on state licensing exams; have students who "match" at a higher rate in internship placements; and are distinguished by the publication records of pcsas faculty.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2019 to 2020, from $492k to $880k (+79%).
How it's funded, over time
