I've been offered a place at Manchester University doing the MEd in Psychology of Education Conversion part-time, and I would just be attending on a Monday.
I’ve also been offered a place online doing a Psychology Conversion with a Specialism in Health conversion course through Strathclyde University. The online one is nearly £4000 cheaper and works better if I need to work more hours.
Would it be better to do Manchester as it’s a more prestigious university and the course is the one I want, and has an education component, or does it not matter as long as I get GBC - for example, not affecting my chances getting on an education psychology doctorate? I know how competitive it is. I do have children and young people experience to meet the doctorate criteria but currently working in the NHS with all ages, but predominantly 16-25s. All advice welcome. I have also approached the Careers Advisors from the university I did my undergraduate with, but I am keen to hear other perspectives! Thank you!
