Overview
Sofia University, formerly known as the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology (ITP) and founded in 1975, is a private, WSCUC-accredited institution. Historically, the University’s academic emphasis has been on providing graduate degree programs in Transpersonal Psychology. We define Transpersonal Psychology as the scientific study of the full range of human experience, which includes the pain of trauma and dysfunction on the one hand and heights of creativity, intuition, and peak functioning on the other. The University has since broadened its program offerings and has integrated a transpersonal focus into all its new degree programs and disciplines, including master’s degrees in Business Administration and Computer Science and bachelor’s completion programs in Business Administration and Psychology. It comprises three schools, namely Graduate School of Transpersonal Studies, Graduate School of Clinical & Spiritual Psychology and School of Undergraduate Studies. The university has two campuses in Palo Alto and Costa Mesa, California. The main campus in Palo Alto spans over an area of 46,000 square feet. Four buildings on the second campus are spread over 14 acres of land. Students can choose from online/low residency, campus and hybrid programmes. T
