Can I apply for a one-year PG diploma course instead of a master's program in New Zealand for a Bachelor's/Postgraduate?

Yes, you can apply for a one-year Postgraduate Diploma (PGDip) in Psychology in New Zealand as an alternative to a Master's program.

These diplomas offer specialized training and can be a pathway to professional registration as a psychologist in New Zealand. Entry requirements vary by university, but a strong academic background in psychology is generally essential.

With your four-year Bachelor's and ongoing Master's in Psychology, you may be eligible, depending on the specific program's criteria. IELTS is typically required.

For next steps, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor to review program options and entry requirements based on your profile.
