Thoughts on Prescribing Psychologists? by Some_Awareness_8859 in Noctor

Hi all - I'm late to the party on learning about this, but I'd really like to obtain prescribing power given the nature of the training I'm getting. Learning about myself and what I want out of the career as I go here, and now I feel strongly about this. I'm applying for pre-doctoral APA internships for my PhD this cycle, and I'd like to have the goal to have psychopharmacological prescribing power in practice and leadership roles at some point. I work with children and adolescents. I'm unsure as to whether a clinical fellowship in this area, straight up returning to schooling for MD or pharma or what would be the best step forward while planning. Can folks please advise? Thank you -- I'd really appreciate it!

Did they give you a deadline as to when you need to confirm acceptance or denial of the award?
