<p>I am considering going into McGill for psych, but am curious as to the what the ramifications are if someone who is not from Quebec get a Quebec degree. Assuming the person winds up getting a bachelors and wants to go somewhere else for their masters, are they qualified to apply to universities outside of Quebec? </p>

<p>And if that person winds up getting their PhD from McGill, do they have the ability to apply for a psychology license from another province? Or is that PhD not recognized in another part of the country because it was achieved outside the province that the person wants to live/work in?</p>

<p>I’m not sure if I explained myself correctly; if I haven’t, let me know and I’ll try to reword it.</p>

<p>Thanks,
Echoes</p>

<p>Degrees from McGill are pretty much recognized everywhere. You’d have no problem applying for a Master’s anywhere you want. Same goes if you get the PhD.</p>

<p>If I’m not mistaken, you need a masters in Psych in most provinces to be a licensed psychologist. A master’s from any university in Canada and almost any university in the US fits the bill. As for undergrad, a degree from McGill is recognized anywhere else in North America and most of the world.</p>
