Students are trained to apply principles of learning, human development, counseling, research, and measurement within the schools. Preparation is designed to enable students to deliver counseling services to schools and their extended communities.
The School Counseling program is accredited by the Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP).
