An auditor is a professional who has an interest in studying psychoanalytic
theory but does not wish to pursue training as a psychoanalyst. An
auditor may take one course each term from among the list of required
600 level courses. Unless the number of auditors is sufficient for
the Faculty and Curriculum Committee to schedule a separate class,
auditors are admitted into regularly scheduled courses.
A. Admission as an auditor: An auditor must meet the requirements
for admission at the Enrollment level (see Section II-A), except that
a single interview will be scheduled to determine motivation and suitability
to study as an auditor.
B. Tuition and fees: Tuition is $400 for each 12-session
course taken at the 600 level. In addition to the $50 application fee,
auditors pay a registration fee of $50 per term; a yearly $10 library
fee; a $30 fee for a subscription to The Psychoanalytic
Review; a $10 fee
for a subscription to the NPAP News and Reviews; and $20 for
membership in MITO.
C. Options: Auditors complete all reading assignments and participate
in general class discussions with no more than 2 absences. They may
choose whether or not to make formal oral presentations or complete
written assignments (wherever applicable). An auditor who completes
all course requirements and receives an acceptable faculty evaluation
will receive full credit for this course if admitted later into the
training program.
D. Evaluations: Auditors submit evaluations of their experiences in
each course to the Faculty and Curriculum Committee. Instructors evaluate
auditors according to the extent of each auditor's self-chosen immersion
in course requirements.
E. Limitations: Because of the complex nature of the Institute's training
aims for all its candidates, auditors implicitly understand and accept
that the Training Committee reserves the right to discontinue an auditor's
participation at any time. An auditor who has completed all courses
at the Enrollment level must then either leave the Institute or apply
for full status as a Member-in-Training.
