Competency based BA/BS psychology?

[dfrecore]

If you want a master's in Psych, it's certainly ok to get a BA in Psych, but not necessary at most schools.

If I were you, I'd probably think about a BLS at UMPI with just about any minor/concentration, and load up on Psych courses if you can; or a BA/BS in Psych at any of the Big 3; or a BA in Liberal Studies at any of the Big 3. COSC will be the cheapest, EC next, and TESU the most. Again, I'd probably take a lot of Psych courses.

I don't necessarily suggest a specific major outside of Psych, because I don't think they're very helpful. An Educational Studies or History or English major doesn't really translate to a Psych master's degree. And you spend a lot of time working on courses that won't help you in the master's, and don't get to take as many courses that WILL help you. That's why I'd do a Psych degree, or else a BALS/BSLS/BLS at any of the Big 3 or UMPI.
