Psychology at MMU?

Hi, im applying for September 2026. I want to study psychology and quite like the course at MMU since it is 100% coursework. And the modules are appealing. However, i want to ask if the course is BPS Accredited? On the website it says it is under review for 2026/27??

Thank you

On the BPS website it says it's accredited. I gather that BPS accreditation status is reviewed every six years regardless of the institution, so it could be just that and nothing much to panic about. Worth emailing them and double-checking though. Although be weary that you might not get a reply in time for you to submit your UCAS before the equal considerations deadline (this Wednesday the 14th of January, 6PM UK time), so maybe try giving them a call too.

Hi @Manuxk

We did apply for reaccreditation for our BSc (Hons) Psychology course, which is pretty standard. I am happy to confirm our BPS accreditation has been confirmed as of this week.

If you have any questions about this course or your eligibility, you are welcome to contact our Course Enquiries Helpline on 0161 247 6969 or via our Live Chat.

Best wishes,
Mel 😊
