Hi I have applied for the jan 24 intake at brunel
Hi - I've applied too! Has anyone heard if they were successful? I'd be interested to hear other people's experiences of the course and also how people will study (full-time/ part-time etc)

That's excellent - well done! I only submitted my application this morning so I assume it might take a while. They told me the start date was something like the 7th Jan so interesting you have 24th down. Or is it that the first two weeks are an introduction but assessed modules have not started yet?

I spoke with one of the current student. He was helpful in answering my doubts. The course is intense (like a regular course),two modules will be taught in a week and there will be a lot of assignments and you can join a watsapp group to interact with other peers.

Goodluck :smile:

In terms of assignments how many are there, I was told 8 core modules and one assignments every 7 weeks

Aye! I have requested for a deferral (jan’24)… please let me know if you or other in this threads would like to connect over social media/ email… it would nice to have study buddies or maybe we could do a video chat about mental health… hehe

Sorry for the late response. I am a current student in Brunel's Msc Psychology Conversion Online from 2022 intake. Welcome to ask me whatever you want to know about this program.

Just to clarify a bit. The course is not that intense. There is only one assignment per module which is a 1500 words essay most of the time. No whatsapp group is needed at all. The tutors and lecturers are responsive in replying our questions via email or the online discussion forum. They are very experienced in running this course and instructions given are always clear enough. Good luck to your journey in studying Brunel.
