The Post-Master's Certificate in College Admission Counseling is designed to provide professionals in the field of school counseling with advanced preparation in facets of college admission counseling. The graduate-level coursework can be used to satisfy professional licensing requirements for school guidance counselors, and provides opportunities for continued growth and development regarding the ever-changing landscape of college admissions.
The curriculum provides students with an opportunity to consider issues in the field of College Admission Counseling from both the K-12 and Higher Education perspectives, and requires students have exposure to coursework from both the School Counseling and Administration of Higher Education programs. Some of these courses may be offered online and/or in the summer term. This certificate is a natural extension of our School Counseling Program, so you may find useful information in the pages describing that program.
