How many years in uni do you have to become a psychologist?

The number of years of university education required to become a psychologist varies depending on the country and the specific type of psychologist you want to be. However, it generally takes a minimum of 7 years post-secondary education. This typically includes:

* 4 years: A bachelor's degree (often in psychology, but sometimes a related field).

* 3-4 years: A doctoral degree (Ph.D. or Psy.D.) in clinical or counseling psychology. Some programs may be longer.

It's important to note that after completing the doctoral degree, many psychologists also complete a year or more of supervised postdoctoral training before they are licensed to practice independently. Therefore, the total time commitment can be even longer than 7 years.
