I have always wanted to pursue a PhD in Clinical Psych, but I don't think I will get admitted this year. So now I am thinking about applying for a Master program that has a thesis/license track. I do not know much whether the thesis/license track is possible as this is actually my first time considering the Master's route so any feedback from you would be great.
My main question is how big of a deal is the match between the faculty's research interest and the applicant's interest? I know for sure this was a prominent factor for PhD programs' admissions, but just wonder if it's crucial for Masters.
Also if the statement of purpose similar to the one used for PhD programs where you have to state who you want to work with and what you're interested in?
Thanks!
