Why this guide can help
The DClinPsy application process can be overwhelming. Each course has its own requirements, selection process and eligibility criteria, and the information is spread across multiple pages.
This guide is designed to help you quickly answer questions such as:
Which courses accept a 2:2?
How much clinical experience is required?
Which courses require a driving licence or access to a car?
Which courses use written tasks, tests or assessment days?
Which courses accept international applicants?
Which courses may be more realistic for my current experience?
Rather than repeatedly searching through dozens of pages, you can use one organised resource to compare courses and plan your application strategy more efficiently.
Important
