I don't see a thread for 2024-2025 applicants so I'm going to post this here. I am a senior undergraduate and plan to apply to clinical psychology programs, hopefully receiving an offer with one offering a neuropsychology subtract or concentration area. My project proposal is not clinical based and my advisor has helped with this. Should I state my major field of study as "Psychology - other" and put in "clinical", or, should I state my major field of study as "Psychology - neuropsychology"? I do not want to be desk-rejected for typing "Clinical" but I also do not want to get into a clinical psychology program and simply get neuropsychological training through an externship and be deemed no longer eligible to accept the reward...
