Do you need a bachelor's degree in psychology in order to be admitted to a master's psychology program


Do you need a bachelor's degree in psychology in order to be admitted to a master's psychology program?
Edit: Can you be admitted to a grad program in psychology BEFORE you make up the requirements for undergrad, or can you get admitted to a program and THEN take the required undergraduate courses at that university?

It depends on the prerequisites the university or college puts on the course. You should be able to find out if your course requires a bachelor's degree in psychology by contacting the university or college who offers the course.

In order to get into a masters of psychology program, you would have fulfill certain prerequisite courses and other requirements required first to your desired master's degree. Also Graduate Record Examination (GRE) scores are considered.

The universities I am familiar with require that you hold a bachelor's degree before being considered for a master's degree. However, there are some universities that offer an accelerated track, which means that you can get your bachelor's and your master's degrees in 5 years. This is usually a very attractive option if you are looking to get your master's only (and not a PhD), because you do not need to undergo a thorough application process again or take the General Record Exams.
