Virtual Info Sessions
Do you have questions about our Professional Counseling Program? Join one of our faculty members for a one-hour Virtual Information Session to learn more about the program!
Information Sessions
We offer year-round information sessions to meet the needs of those seeking information about our program, with a 1-hour virtual session offered approximately every 4 to 6 weeks, depending on the university calendar.
The registration link includes a space for you to submit questions in advance of the information session. Once you register online, you will automatically receive a confirmation email containing the Zoom link to join the one-hour meeting. You do not need to resubmit your questions to the host via email. You also do not need to attend more than one Information Session.
| These information sessions will cover the entire counseling program, with an overview of all three concentrations. | ||
