You have two options: Option 1) Obtain a second degree, Major in Psychology. As a student with a previous degree, this means that you will need to complete a min. of 60 credits and meet all of the requirements of both the Psychology Program and the Faculty. Option 2) Apply to UBC as an unclassified student. This means that you are only required to take the courses that are required for the Psychology Program (42 credits). However, you will not obtain a second degree.
