However, if your application is successful, you must submit your official scores to confirm the self-reported ones before you can be formally admitted to CSU. Send official electronic test scores using code 4075.

Psychology Subject Test: Psychology subject test scores are not required for all programs. The subject test score is required by the Industrial/Organizational Psychology program and the MAIOP program only for applicants who did not major in psychology as an undergraduate or in graduate school. As with GRE General Test scores, you may self-report your scores in the application, but must confirm them with official score reports if you are offered admission.
