FAQs
Is this just for people applying to the DClinPsy this year?
No — this is for anyone committed to developing their DClinPsy readiness, whether you’re years away or already mid-application.
Why does it cost money?
Because we’re committed to sustainable, high-quality support delivered by qualified professionals — and your fee helps fund access for others through our Pay it Forward Scheme.
Can I cancel anytime?
We expect DClinPsy Prep Pathway members to commit to the full 12-month programme in order to gain the most benefit. This includes progressing through key services like Interview Coaching, Personal Statement Reviews, and Office Hours over time. The programme is designed as a structured, long-term support system — not a drop-in resource. We understand life happens, so you’ll still have access until the end of your paid period if you choose to cancel early — but we strongly recommend completing the full pathway to get the best value.
