No specific cutoff mentioned
Applicants will be expected to have a BPS accredited Undergraduate degree and a BPS accredited Master's degree in Forensic Psychology (or equivalence of BPS Stage 1 training in forensic psychology). In addition to the academic qualifications detailed above, applicants will be expected to demonstrate extensive experience in applied forensic psychology. This can be demonstrated by being employed as a forensic psychologist in training, or a similar role where you have practiced, under supervision, forensic psychology with forensic service users. We recommend at least 1 year (full time) experience in these roles. We do accept Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) for this programme and our rules of applying this mean we accept prior certified learning. This means that students may demonstrate that they have already demonstrated competency in areas assessed within this programme. Generally this will mean they can demonstrate that they have submitted, been assessed and passed aspects of a similar (HCPC Approved) programme in forensic psychology training. RPL is assessed individually and applicants should contact the Course Director with evidence of their RPL for further guidance. Students will be asked to consent to participation in role-play activities during the workshops associated with the programmes. Students unable to consent to such activities will be required to work with the programme team to achieve a suitable alternative experience. Students will need to able to evidence English language skills of IELTS level 7 with a minimum of 6.5 on each subtest. Before starting the programme, students must have an approved placement where appropriate supervised experience is offered by the placement site. For some students, their employment can be used as the placement (e.g. forensic psychologists in training employed by justice or health organisations). We support students who have been offered a place on the programme to find suitable placement opportunities. Students on placements where they are not employed by their placement provider will be expected to take out appropriate liability insurance at their own cost. The cost of liability insurance for students on placement varies, but should be less than £100.00 per year for most applicants. International Applicants Students whose first language is not English will need to provide evidence of fluency to at least an IELTS 7.0 standard or equivalent.

It has been a great journey so far and I will recommend it to everyone.

Tips: It is the best university in the budget. Everything is on track, the staff is very supportive. It depends on the course though. This university is very good for technical courses like Engineering etc so yeah if you want that then come. Apart from that business courses are really good as well.

Likes (Indian Food): I prefer cooking myself but there are lots of food options available, but i will suggest eating at home as the food outside costs a lot of money. So come prepared from home and learn some dishes from youtube and your family as well. Eat clean and healthy.

Dislikes (Public transportation): There is guidance available. The career team is really good and you can book 1 on 1 sessions with the career team as well. But you need to be talented and have good command on the language and actively look for jobs and work hard. If you are in the UK for labour work then that is a different issue you can go to any random university then.

Satisfied with Cardiff Metropolitan University.

Tips: I think students will not face any cultural shift and discrimination. Personally, I didn't experience much difference in cultural things and food varieties as well. I haven't got any scholarship over here but students can apply. I am very satisfied with my university and with the faculty members as well. They are highly qualified and kind.

Dislikes (Public transportation): I myself live near the campus, so for me, it's not so far to travel to the university. But the campus is very beautiful and cheerful. Public transportation is also very good and not so expensive. In fact, the campus is very well connected to the rest part of the main city. It's so big and beautiful.

You will find beaches to enjoy one of them is Barry Island and the other is Cardiff bay.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Faculty members are very helpful, supportive and will solve your problems if you are stuck anywhere. Based on your course, faculty are very good at teaching. Please see the courses you want to enroll at this University. And marking criteria is best for this University.
