- If your undergraduate studies in psychology were completed as a single subject major (that is, units which were not undertaken as part of a degree) please provide high-quality colour scans of the official academic transcript and the qualification certificate of the degree you completed prior to commencing your psychology subjects
- If you have completed a major research project/thesis, please provide the title page, abstract, table of contents and names of professions of the supervisors and examiners where known

Affidavits
The APS does not accept affidavits as evidence of name change or name variation (different spelling). While accepted as evidence of name change in some countries, the APS is unable to accept a document that is the applicant swearing the contents to be true. It is the applicants responsibility to obtain official evidence of name change or variation.
Ensure you also have:
- A Visa, Mastercard or American Express card to pay using our secure payment process
Please note:
Ensure you have read the APS Assessments Terms and Conditions before proceeding
The online application should take about 10 minutes per qualification to complete
Please only use English letters when filling out this form. Please avoid using special characters (such as, .!/@) as the form cannot detect such information and this may impact the submission of your application.
Timeframe
The assessment of overseas qualifications is a detailed and complex process.
