    Nottingham is definitely the best. They have a great reputation. I thought about applying there last year for this course, but what put me off was the £20 application fee so I never did appy in the end which was just as well as I got offers from all three London unis I applied to anyway.

    Aston Uni aren't as well-regarded from what I know, but the business school itself may be more regarded than the uni as a whole. As for Leeds, the university itself is quite good, I think, but I don't know what this course is like there. I don't know anything about Northumbria so can't help you there.

    One bit of advice for your applications is to make sure you apply for a BPS accredited MSc program if you hope to become an occupational psychologist. This is really essential.

    (Original post by vaidehi.c)
    so whr did u do this course from?
    I'm doing the MSc course at Birkbeck, University of London.

    I already have my BPS membership
    You need to be a graduate member (or be eligible for graduate membership) to do the MSc, but if you want to then become fully qualified you still want to make sure that your MSc programme is also accredited.

    but then as UK has canceled the PSWP, i am in two minds whether to opt fr it or not?
    I have no idea what the PSWP is so can't help you there, I'm afraid.

    Are you working anywhere now?
    I have been working 25hrs/week while studying full time, but at the moment I'm taking a break from work for 6 weeks to study for exams.
