Should I apply for a masters degree before a PhD?

Frequently Asked Career Questions
A terminal masters degree (in which an M.A. or M.S. is the end result of training) used to be quite common in psychology and is still the norm in Canada, but increasingly, the trend in the United States has been for students to go directly from a bachelors degree to a doctorate. In social psychology, for example, masters degrees are far less common than PhDs.

Once I get my Masters degree, can I proceed to the PhD?

FAQ : Frequently Asked Questions
