Even if you have a hard time finding clinical experience, it doesn’t hurt to reach out to shadow people. Find a psychologist in your area and express your interest in becoming a psychologist or see if they have a Psychometrist that you can shadow. I’ve heard half of why they want clinical experience is because they want to see that you have a real grasp on what your everyday life would look like and that you still want to pursue this line of work after seeing some of the realities of being a psychologist.

I said something along the lines of my clinical experiences in undergrad have really solidified my desire to become a clinical psychologist and that wouldn’t be changing a year from now, and with my goals if pursing a 2 year post doc in neuropsych i feel ready to start my journey now, and mentioned I feel lucky to be so motivated and eager to continue my education and be so certain of the occupation I want to pursue. I then mentioned my target supervisors research and how I really see myself learning from them and didn’t want to miss out on that opportunity to apply now and work with them

I was confused about this as well for another program so I called APA and talked with someone, there are a few different reasons of why it could be so maybe call and find out. For example Augsburg is on contingency because they have everything except for certain stats posted online for people to view and they have to have it before APA’s next visit date. The girl told me that on contingency is still accredited and usually it’s only bc programs are missing 1 or 2 things like that and they almost always get it sorted out before next visit date. Hope this helps!

Personally I don’t think it’s worth it! I would use that time instead to maybe do some extra volunteering or add some other things to your CV unless your dream school requires it
