The Department of Counselor Education hosted an “Admitted Students Day” on Friday, April 17, 2026. This event provided newly admitted students with an opportunity to learn more about the expectations of the counseling program. Attendees heard from faculty members about coursework, internships, and practicum experiences, and were introduced to potential employment opportunities through graduate assistantships. Representatives from campus offices—including the Dean’s Office of the College of Education and Human Development, the Graduate Affairs Office, and the Teaching Resource Center—also shared valuable information. In addition, admitted students had the chance to connect with current Counselor Education students and ask questions about their experiences in the program.
