MSc Psychology at University of Westminster

Entry requirements

A minimum of an upper second class honours degree (2:1). Applicants with a lower second class honours degree (2:2) may be considered in exceptional circumstances if their first degree is over 10 years old and they have gained significant professional experience since then. Alternatively, applicants with a postgraduate certificate (e.g. PGCE) will also be considered. As statistical procedures are a key element of Psychology, we require applicants to demonstrate competence in mathematics, for example through having obtained GSCE mathematics (or equivalent). We also encourage applicants to provide evidence of interest in the discipline of psychology and reflection on the ways that their experience to date would enable them to succeed at the Masters level. If your first language is not English, you should have an IELTS 7.0 overall with 6.5 in all components. Two references are required from all candidates. If the most recent degree is less than five years ago, a minimum of one academic reference is required. If the most recent degree is more than 10 years ago, no academic references are required.
