Can I get admission for Masters in psychology if I have done my Bachelors degree in nursing?

It really doesn't matter whether it is BA or BS. Most of the time, BS degrees give some emphasis on more math and science classes while the BA gives some emphasis on liberal arts subjects like sociology and anthropology. However, the courses required to the psychology sector remains unchanged. It really doesn't matter whether it is a BA or BS. I did BA and M.Sc. It is usually the university's policy to make it a BA or BS. Similarly, MA or M.Sc. But there are instances sometimes the university offers the same degree programme in both MA and M.Sc. formats. Where the MA requires a research thesis and M.Sc requires a project report. I saw this in a university for psychology Masters. It further said that the students who complete MA can go for Ph.D. For psychology, a Master's degree would be fine. To become a clinical psychologist, you should have a Bachelor's degree in psychology, then a Master's degree in psychology, and then a doctoral degree in psychology. There are two doctor degrees as Psy. D and Ph.D. For the Bachelor's level, I don't think whether BA or BS really matters. That's what my advisor told me. He said what matters is getting a Ph.D and get myself licensed to practice as a clinical psychologist.
