After being admitted to a degree or credential program, students are strongly urged
to seek the guidance of his or her academic advisor. It is the advisor’s task to inform
the student of his or her program requirements and to encourage prudent sequencing
of courses.

Department of Counseling Psychology

After applicants have been admitted to degree status and have submitted a confirmation
of intent to enroll, they are assigned to a temporary advisor to help sequence their
early classes. After students have been in the program for at least one term, they are free
to select any full-time, on-campus faculty member as their academic advisor. If students
are in an emphasis program, they are initially assigned to the emphasis coordinator.

Graduate Program in Pastoral Ministries
