What should I do next?

Completing the on-line form
Complete all of the required fields on the form. Supervisors have a fixed number of students they can take, thus as time goes on some names will not appear on the list. Indicate either a topic area of psychology or a specific research working title for your project (80 Characters Maximum).
What happens after I register my supervisor preferences?
You will receive an automated email listing what you have entered in the database. You should be aware that if you do not successfully pass Level 2 assessments you may not be eligible to register for the dissertation module.
What happens if I want to change my mind?
