Yes, your sister can get help exploring master's and Professional Skills Award (PSA) program options abroad.

For master's in psychology, some Irish universities offer January intakes, though most start in September. Admission usually requires:
- Upper second-class honours degree (2.1) or equivalent in psychology
- English proficiency (IELTS, TOEFL, or PTE; e.g., IELTS 6.5)
- Application materials: transcripts, personal statement, and references

PSA programs are less commonly available as standalone postgraduate courses and may require direct inquiry with institutions.

September or January: which intake can you still make?
