Psychology in UK

    After completing my B.A with psychology as a minor , I am looking into
    continuing with psychology through a conversion course in the UK.
    I would love to live and study in Scotland for a bit, ideally Edinburgh but i dont think they offer an ideal course..
    It seems that Glasgow is the only university in Scotland which offer a means of studying a GDip in Psychology affiliated by the BPS , is this correct?

    I have looked into England where the options are more abundant.
    Has anyone any experience studying in the London metropolitan?
    has it a good status?
    I am aware that the living costs of London are higher.. which is a big disadvantage as this course is not funded..

    thanks

    Don't know anything about England or Scotland but have you thought about Wales? A friend I met when studying at Cardiff took psychology as a minor back in Ireland but was doing the conversion course there. The conversion course was recognised by the BPS and is well regarded. My friend is now doing a professional doctorate in psychology. Living costs in Cardiff are lower than London too.
