Associated Fees
While there is a cost associated with developing and maintaining a high-quality program, every attempt will be made to keep this cost manageable. Students should be aware that there is a range of training fees, including:
- Books and course fees. (The Counseling Program uses Cengage Unlimited for most, but not all, textbooks. The cost for this is $100 per semester. This also covers the first taking of the comprehensive exam and other course costs.)
- Professional membership dues. (Students will be required to join a professional counseling organization. Several options are available. For example, some might want to join, ACA, ASCA, AMHCA, or another. The cost of these varies. However, student memberships are fairly reasonable, around $100 per year. See Professional Organizations)
- Malpractice insurance premiums. (Students will be required to maintain Malpractice insurance while in practicum and internship. The good news is that this is included in most Professional Organizations’ student membership. Make sure you check the organizations’ benefits.)
- Licensure Testing fees. (The Counseling Program will provide information on licensure testing, e.g., NCE and Praxis. However, these will have to be taken in connection with state requirements.
