Selection Process
To gain entrance to the MA (Clinical Psychology) programme, you must apply online to the University of Johannesburg (UJ) AND with the UJ Department of Psychology. This means there are two processes in the application, and it is crucial that you complete both. Your application will not be processed without the two processes complete.
Your application will undergo a two-step process of evaluation. The first step entails a review of your application documents for eligibility to be invited to participate in step 2. The second step entails our interaction with you during the selection week, whereby suitability and potential for preparation, in context and comparison (thus, competitive), will be determined
