Hi! I’ve just enrolled on a BSc psychology course with the OU alongside a PG Dip in psychotherapy at USW with the aim of becoming a psychotherapist and acquiring MBPsS so I can potentially advance into clinical or counselling psychology via a clinical doctorate. I have an undergraduate degree in PPE and a masters in intellectual history already. I went the BSc psychology route as distance learning and student loan available, but is it silly getting a second undergrad degree? Would an MSc conversion be looked on better if I were applying for a doctorate in clinical psychology for example? Should I complete my PG Dip in psychotherapy, and then take a private loan and do the MSc conversion either at Arden or Cardiff, or proceed with the undergraduate option?
Any advice appreciated, thanks guys!
