Hi Guys,
I have a double B.A. in Philosophy and East Asian Studies.. original plan was to go into academia but now it seems rather unfortunately that the field of humanities is dead. A friend told me that the Army will pay for your schooling if you go into Clinical Psychology and hire you afterwards. Considering that psychotherapy was my 2nd career choice, I'm very interested in doing this, but unfortunately I didn't formally study any psychology.
I saw that PhD programs require a Bachelors and that would take me a year to get (30 hours). Is that all I would need?
Some here have said to get a Masters first, is that my best bet? Or would it be possible to get into a decent PhD program after a year of Psych study?
Not looking into the top top schools but really like UC Boulder, if that helps.
Thanks!
