Master of Arts in College Counseling (CLCL)


The College Counseling Program is designed for students who are interested in working as professional counselors in institutions of higher education. It is a 48-hour program leading to professional counseling licensure in Michigan. Candidates selected for this program are expected to make a major commitment to graduate training and to enroll in course work on a regular basis. The program includes a 600-clock-hour supervised counseling internship experience. The College Counseling Program is nationally accredited by the Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP), a specialized accrediting body that evaluates and grants accreditation to graduate-level programs in professional counseling. The program meets the academic and internship requirements for limited licensure as a professional counselor (LLPC) in the State of Michigan. Information on the post-master’s requirements for full licensure as a professional counselor is available in the student handbook for Counseling Programs.
