Affective Disorders MSc

Hi guys, I recently received an offer for the Affective Disorders MSc, and was just wondering if anyone else has got an offer for this course too? If not this course, any course that's primarily based within the IoPPN?
Hey! Not the same course but Ive got an offer for MSc Clinical Neurodevelopmental Sciences which is also primarily based in the IoPPN :smile:

No worries, yes I am planning to move to London, I have been told that the housing market there is super quick tho so I will probably be looking a little closer to aug/sept nearer to the start of the course!

Congrats on your offer! I also applied to that MSc but I'm still waiting on a reply. Do you mind saying when you applied?

Oh no way! I had no idea, I always thought it would be quite difficult trying to secure an accommodation in London, especially given the prices of some. I only recently figured out that the IoPPN facilities are mainly based in South, not Central so that narrowed my search a little! Do you know if you plan on finding an accommodation that's strictly student based (e.g. Unite) or if you'd prefer a flat in any general accommodation?

Thank you so much! And not at all, I officially submitted it on 30th January, I hope you get a response soon! It would be great to get in touch with someone on the same course before the start date :smile:

Yeah! I think because so many people want to live there, when you find a place, the property owners want you to move in fairly quick so you can start paying them haha, yeah mostly located at the Denmark hill area, I will probably be looking for a more general accommodation as Im moving in with others that wont be students and I think most student based ones can be overpriced anyway!! But thats just the ones Ive looked at so far :smile:

Congratulations!! That’s so amazing, fingers crossed Kings get back to you soon, the course is still taking applications i think so they’re likely just getting through them at their own pace!

Hi all, I want to apply to this course but was wondering if you guys would recommend it for those who want to pursue a career in clinical psychology. Also, what are you biggest tips for applicants?
