Is a USA/International Psy.D worth it?
Im Canadian undergrad, I didnt get honours unfortunately but I really want clinical grad school (ideally doctorate but I stay open to direct entry Masters first if needed), this being said I hear Psy.D is a possible pathway to clinical (USA or abroad like Australia, UK, etc) but I have also heard it is insane expensive at least in the usa— Is this true? Is it worth it? I just don't want to research schools outside of Canada and waste my time if it's not a good move.
My alternative is applying into counseling grad school of some sort.. Canada or outside of Canada..although I would really prefer clinical for the scope and psychopathology.
*I didnt get honours as I started in another major and swapped late, and my first couple years were rough so I really don't want to spend more $ / time upping gpa for it*
Thanks friends!
