Please be advised that domestic applications open on the 1st September and close on the 15th October each year for the following year. Domestic applicants must apply through the Universities Admissions Centre (UAC) http://www.uac.edu.au/postgraduate/ Referee reports must be submitted through the Psychology Reference Portal https://www.psychologyreference.com.au. Applicants must ensure they share the reference with the University of Canberra. If the reference is not shared we cannot access the referee reports and the application will be deemed incomplete and the application will not be processed further.

Limited Commonwealth-supported places (CSPs) are available for this course and will be awarded on academic merit. Eligible applicants who are not given a CSP will be recommended for fee-paying (FEE) places.

Applicants must meet all of the following criteria:
1. Completion of a four-year APAC accredited sequence in psychology, typically an honours degree, within the last 10 years with a minimum GPA of 75%; and
2. be eligible for, or hold, provisional registration as a psychologist with AHPRA

Applicants must also provide:
- a current Curriculum Vitae (CV)
- proof of eligibility for registration as a provisional psychologist with the Psychology Board of Australia, and

Shortlisted applicants (domestic and international) will be required to attend an interview in which their suitability for clinical practice will be assessed. Interviews are preferably attended in person (on campus). Requests for an online interview can be submitted in special circumstances for consideration. The time and date of the interview is unfortunately not negotiable, due to the tight scheduling requirements.

NOTE
Above requirements are the minimum standard and not negotiable. Entry is competitive and places limited. Shortlisting for interview is determined against the applicant's academically ranked place in the applicant list, and the referee reports. The thresholds for interview considerations vary each year in response to characteristics of the applicant pool. It is emphasised that meeting the minimum entrance requirements does not of itself guarantee an interview. Please note that it is the applicant's responsibility to ensure that UAC and UC have the correct and most current information against which applications are assessed.
