Finessing The Applications - The Learning Psychologist (SOLD OUT)
About
Applying for psychology master's programs can feel overwhelming, especially when everyone seems to have different advice about what universities are looking for.Join The Learning Psychologist AKA Jasmine for an interactive workshop designed to help you understand what makes a strong psychology master's application. The workshop will be delivered by Jasmine Kaur Sareen, a Registered Psychologist, University of Melbourne and ANU graduate, and founder of The Learning Psychologist. Having successfully navigated the application process herself and spent the past five years mentoring psychology students through postgraduate applications, Jasmine will share practical strategies drawn from both professional experience and real-world mentoring.
In this workshop, you'll learn:
1. What psychology master's programs are actually looking for in applicants.
2. Common myths and mistakes that weaken otherwise strong applications.
3. How to structure a psychology master's CV (and how it differs from a job CV).
4. What to include, what to leave out, and how to showcase your experiences effectively.
5. How to write a compelling personal statement that demonstrates readiness, reflection, and professional maturity.
6. A practical framework for developing a clear, authentic narrative across your application.
7. What your next steps should be after preparing your application documents.
This is a highly interactive workshop where you'll have the opportunity to analyse real sample applications, reflect on your own experiences, and learn how admissions panels may interpret different application styles.
Included with your registration:
1. PDF copy of the workshop slides (sent after the workshop).
2. Sample psychology master's CVs for guided analysis.
3. Sample personal statements used during the workshop activities.
4. Interactive exercises to help you apply what you've learned to your own application.
5. Opportunity to ask questions throughout the session.
Whether you're applying this year or planning ahead, this workshop will help you approach your application with greater confidence, and a clearer understanding of what universities are looking for.
