Program Tracks
The Master of Arts in Counseling program provides for two degree options.
- Community Counseling: a 60-semester hour, CACREP approved track, that prepares students for clinical practice as a licensed professional counselor.
- A Dual Degree will enable a student to earn both an M.Div. and a Master of Arts in Counseling in approximately one year less and at less cost than if the degrees were pursued separately.
The
Council for
Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs
(CACREP) is the national accrediting body for professional
counseling. Not all counseling programs are CACREP accredited.
To be accredited a program must demonstrate high standards
in a wide variety of programmatic areas.
