Description

The post-Master's counselor program is designed for applicants who have already earned a master’s degree in School Counseling and want to take the 12 additional credits needed to meet eligibility requirements for the Licensed Professional Counselor (L.P.C.) credential in the District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia.

  • Students who enroll in this program are given a discounted rate on the tuition ($6,435.00) as compared to paying for the four courses separately ($8,580.000).

Please note: this program does not result in an additional Master’s degree or certification from Trinity Washington University. The program exists solely for the completion of graduate-level work in order to meet eligibility requirements for professional counselor licensure.
