Your brain does most of the interpretation, but much of what enters our brain is due to sound interacting with the physical shape of our head/ears/body and surroundings. So to prepare for acoustics graduate school with concentration in psychoacoustics, I'd still recommend you consider taking some EE courses if they are available. Courses that will serve you well: Digital Signal Processing (to be able to acquire and process data), a basic circuits course (to be able to solve some electro-mechanical analogy and transducers problems), some training in a programming language such as MATLAB (or Octave which is similar and open-source), and linear algebra / matrices. Additionally thermodynamics and certain physics will also aid in your understanding of acoustics in general.

An interesting and very accessible, albeit a bit dated, intro to Spatial Sound and 3D Audio can be found on the NASA website: http://human-factors.arc.nasa.gov/publications/Begault_2000_3d_Sound_Multimedia.pdf or in print elsewhere. I took a course during the Spring 2014 semester at Penn State which referenced this book a good deal. If after looking through Begault's book you are still interested in psychoacoustics, there are a few professors you might have the opportunity to work with at PSU. The course offerings through Penn State on psychoacoustics/3D Audio are sometimes few and far between, but students and faculty are actively doing research in this area. It's worth noting that Penn State has one of the largest and most respected Acoustics programs in the nation and I believe it served me well.

Another really good book that's more current if you are willing to spend $100 or want to search for it at a library: http://www.amazon.com/Head-Related-Transfer-Function-Virtual-Auditory/dp/1604270705

Best of luck in your search!
