Thank you so much you have been really helpful !!

Okie thank you I had gone through some of the uni provided in the list. Do you have any idea how is Phd Counselling Psychology is in University of Miami ?? I have found 2 professors that shares my research interest. Furthermore, this university provides full tuition fee waiver which was an additional advantage !! Funding is one of my major criteria choosing a Universities. Do you have any idea where Universities provides full tuition weaver for Phd Counselling/Clinical Psychology. My research interest is more towards multi-cultural psychology and its relation to mental health... If you have any idea or any one reading this comment have advise regarding which University to apply to where professors are interested in cultural psychology discipline, please PM me or reply to this quote. Would Totally Appreciate it !!! Planning to apply for Fall 2016 Phd Counselling or Clinical Psych in USA and Canada. However I feel USA provides better funding options for international students than Canada !!!!

Hey I was wondering this spreadsheet that you provided , is it applicable for international students ??? Does international students have different funding process ??

Thank you all for replying Sorry I forgot to introduce myself, I have already completed a Msc in Clinical Psychology in India. I want to apply to the Phd program but i felt maybe I shud get an understanding first how psychology is in Canada. So I thought I can apply for a Graduate Certificate course of 1 year and through that hopefully form good contacts and pay way towards me applying for a Phd. But I dnt know if this path even makes sense cause I dnt know how good a Graduate Certificate course is??? I mean does Universities recognise this course when I apply for Phd ..... Or it doesnt make a difference whether I do a Graduate certificate Course or not ..... Rather I should just apply for a Phd straight away ... Any suggestions ?? I dnt want to apply for a Master course main reason it is expensive and I am looking at practical experience right now which according to the various college websites Graduate Certificate courses provides that hands-on experience .... Is it true ??? My biggest worry is wasting my time on a 1 yr Graduate certificate course ... and would greatly appreciate honest feedback whether to pursue it or not. I have identified 2 community colleges and the Graduate Certificate Course of 1 yr that they provide: Humber college - Early Education - Advanced Studies: Special Needs , Addiction and mental health Durham College - Addictions and mental health Are these colleges good and do you know anyone who have taken these courses and what were their feedbacks ?? Its alot of doubts I have posted, hope you all can help me further

Hi everyone, I have been searching for a good universities for me to apply next year either in Counselling or Clinical. I came across couple of courses provided by colleges and then their are universities ... I am not familiar with this since in my place uni and col are pretty much the same meaning. How effective is it being graduated in a College program vs a University program ?? Does it make sense to first apply to one of the practical diploma courses offered by Colleges and then move to a Phd offered by Universities ??

Hi, Im a bit confused on how to go about applying for a course in Canada .. I have a few doubts that needs to be clarified and I hope you all can help. I have completed my Master course in Psychology (Clinical) from Bangalore, India in 2014. I am currently working as a counselor in an assessment firm not clinically related. I'm in bit of a dilemma on how to go about deciding on the pathway on achieving a Psychologist license in Canada (knowing each province has its own rules and regulation in order to become a registered Psychologist). Doubts 1) What is the difference between certificate course and diploma courses ?? Which is better and recognised ? I am not keen on applying to a master course in Canada and was wondering if a diploma/certificate course of 1 yr + internship of 1 yr is good and help me get experience of how the practice is done there.? 2) My ultimate aim is to get a Phd and eventually work in Canada. Should I directly apply for a Phd (i,e, am I eligible, since being from a foreign country ) or should I apply for a diploma course and then apply for Phd ?? Which is the better options to have a higher probability to get through Phd? I am interested to take up a diploma course in order to harness my skills ... but will this 1 yr course benefit me in applying for Phd later in clinical psychology ?? Or atleast get a job for a while in Canada before I start applying for Phd. Taking as an international student perspective in mind. I hope you can suggest me the best path.... Sorry for a lot of question hope someone will clarify me on it !! Thank you
