As part of your application, you’ll be required to submit:

  • Documented relevant work experience in community or health-related fields
  • Transcript of completed psychological studies per the entry requirement
  • Your practice portfolio
  • Your personal statement
  • Contact details for three referees, who must complete and forward a referee report no later than one week after applications close. Of the three referees:
    • one must provide a character reference

3. Submit your application

In addition to your direct application via the University’s application portal, above, you must also upload the further documentation required via the supplementary application form by the application closing date.
