How to Apply
School Counseling or Bilingual School Counseling Dual Degree

Not Accepting Applications

To best meet the needs of our students, we have decided to suspend enrollment in the MA in School Counseling and Bilingual School Counseling. We encourage you to explore On-campus MA in Counseling for Mental Health and Wellness and Online MA in Counseling for Mental Health and Wellness.

Our dual master's and advanced certificate program in School Counseling or Bilingual School Counseling will provide you with a foundation in school counseling theory and practice, plus advanced course work that helps you develop a more sophisticated understanding of the role of the school counselor in the areas of consultation, social justice, career and college readiness, and prevention. This dual degree is ideal for those pursuing professional certification who want to complete all their credit requirements at once. You must reside in the US and not need a visa to pursue this online degree, and you may choose to concentrate your degree on bilingual school populations.

This program is accredited by the Master’s in Psychology and Counseling Accreditation Council (MPCAC) for 2015 through 2025. Graduates of this program meet the academic requirements for licensure in the state of New York. Each state sets their own policies, regulations, and standards for licensure. If you intend to pursue licensure in a state other than New York, you should consult our Licensure page for more information on whether our program meets the academic requirements for licensure in that state and whether there is additional coursework you may need to complete to meet that state’s requirements.

Students interested in the bilingual concentration must be able to participate in required supervised fieldwork within the five boroughs of New York City.
