Master's Degree Graduate Admission Policies
 

Admission to the UNI Counseling Programs are competitive. All faculty members carefully review all candidates' academic record, personal and goal statements, and work or volunteer experience in the counseling or human services field. Based on a numerial rating scale, the counseling faculty select the most qualified candidates based on how many part-time and full-time students we can accomodate. There are two levels of admission: Level One: Admission to Coursework (provisional) status and Level Two: Program Approval (degree) status.

Prospective students wishing to take courses prior to Level One: Admission to Coursework may only take the following courses:

  • 290:103g Introduction to Professional Counseling
  • 290:105g Counseling Skills
  • 290:227 Counseling Theory (OR another course, as approved by the advisor)

*If all of these classes are closed, please contact Dr. Jan Bartlett for appropriate substitutions.

* Please note that no more than 6 hours of coursework taken prior to first level provisional admission can be counted towards your program of study. Completion of any of these courses does not guarantee admission to the program.
