MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling
A Distinctive Clinical Mental Health Counseling Program
All applicants to the Clinical Mental Health Counseling are automatically considered for a graduate assistantship award. A graduate assistantship is a two-year position valued at up to $4500 per year in the form of a $3,000 financial aid tuition reduction and $1,500 work study program stipend. That is a total of up to $9,000 of financial support!
