Student Resources

We'll provide resources and access to engaged learning opportunities that will enhance your academic journey and career preparation.

A graduate assistantship (GA) is a great way to help cover graduate school costs while gaining valuable experience. Learn more about attending GA Interview Day, which is open to students in counseling and higher education programs.

Counseling

If you're in the counseling program, we'll provide you with guidance on courses, as well as information on licensure. We'll also help you prepare for your internship or practicum experience.

Higher Education

If you're pursuing a degree in higher education, you'll benefit from our guidance on internship opportunities. If you're working on your Ed.D., be sure to review information on the dissertation of practice requirement.
