00:00:00.400 --> 00:00:02.020
First of all, welcome, Rosie.

00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:05.440
You have, myself, Tom Brooks.

00:00:05.440 --> 00:00:15.075
I am the vice president for Divine Mercy University, and I work for the enrollment marketing areas, those kind of things.

00:00:15.075 --> 00:00:21.335
And currently, I'm helping launch the new PhD in counselor education supervision program.

00:00:22.835 --> 00:00:26.780
Since it's just you, we'll go through just several things.

00:00:26.780 --> 00:00:32.640
And then maybe if you're interested, you and I can just set up a separate call, and we can go a little bit more in-depth.

00:00:33.260 --> 00:00:37.120
But, couple of things to highlight, as we get going.

00:00:39.145 --> 00:00:40.985
We'll do the overview real quick.

00:00:40.985 --> 00:00:43.405
And as you notice, I'm working from the website.

00:00:43.865 --> 00:00:56.050
And what this will do is allow you to also see the different parts of the website for this program and, you know, kinda do any research you need to do, to help yourself or something that will spur questions.

00:00:59.550 --> 00:00:59.870
K.

00:00:59.870 --> 00:01:00.690
Two roses.

00:01:00.990 --> 00:01:01.490
Alright.

00:01:02.270 --> 00:01:02.770
Alright.

00:01:03.150 --> 00:01:07.775
So, Rosie, are you, can you let me know?

00:01:07.775 --> 00:01:09.715
Are you a former DMU student?

00:01:10.175 --> 00:01:10.495
No.

00:01:10.495 --> 00:01:11.235
I'm not.

00:01:11.935 --> 00:01:12.435
Okay.

00:01:12.895 --> 00:01:13.375
Perfect.

00:01:13.375 --> 00:01:14.255
Now I can hear you.

00:01:14.255 --> 00:01:14.755
Alright.

00:01:15.295 --> 00:01:18.975
Then, you know, a lot of this will have relevancy to you then, and that'll help you.

00:01:18.975 --> 00:01:25.280
If you were just if you were one of our graduates from our master's program, then we would have skipped over some of this.

00:01:25.280 --> 00:01:32.580
But, I'll go through it kinda quickly, and then, you know, hopefully, you can get to the q and a, as well and go from there.

00:01:33.295 --> 00:01:38.195
So, since it's just you and I, where did you go to school?

00:01:40.575 --> 00:01:52.220
I went to school, William Carey University in state of Mississippi and, University of West Alabama and, in the state of Alabama.

00:01:53.320 --> 00:01:53.800
Okay.

00:01:53.800 --> 00:01:57.500
And are you a licensed, counselor?

00:01:58.920 --> 00:02:02.140
I am on the department of mental health.

00:02:03.455 --> 00:02:13.555
I want to go back and get, I'm lacking, like, four classes, then maybe I can get my LPC, but I have to get to a K CREP college.

00:02:13.695 --> 00:02:14.995
Are you guys K CREP?

00:02:16.015 --> 00:02:16.575
We are.

00:02:16.575 --> 00:02:17.855
So, I'm sorry.

00:02:17.855 --> 00:02:21.370
Are you are you licensed right now?

00:02:21.990 --> 00:02:22.310
Yes.

00:02:22.310 --> 00:02:24.310
I'm licensed through the department of mental health.

00:02:24.310 --> 00:02:24.810
Yes.

00:02:25.110 --> 00:02:25.430
K.

00:02:25.430 --> 00:02:27.530
And what is that can you what's your credentials?

00:02:27.590 --> 00:02:28.330
I'm sorry.

00:02:28.870 --> 00:02:30.630
When you say that, I don't understand it.

00:02:30.630 --> 00:02:31.290
I apologize.

00:02:32.150 --> 00:02:35.715
A certified mental health therapist.

00:02:35.935 --> 00:02:36.915
That's CMHT.

00:02:38.335 --> 00:02:38.835
Okay.

00:02:40.335 --> 00:02:40.835
Alright.

00:02:44.575 --> 00:02:46.575
Our undergraduate program or I'm sorry.

00:02:46.575 --> 00:02:47.075
Okay.

00:02:47.295 --> 00:02:57.610
Our MS in clinical mental health counseling is our master's degree program, and it is state prep accredited.

00:02:57.830 --> 00:02:58.630
The Okay.

00:02:59.030 --> 00:03:08.225
New program, which you're we're here to talk about, the PhD in counselor education supervision is not accredited yet.

00:03:09.405 --> 00:03:13.245
But it it's a what we call it's not a new launch program.

00:03:13.245 --> 00:03:15.665
It's called it's what we call an addition.

00:03:16.525 --> 00:03:23.210
And what it does is it cuts down CACREP accreditation opportunity by about half.

00:03:23.750 --> 00:03:30.250
So the idea is that and and we did this with our undergrad or I'm sorry, with our master's program.

00:03:30.790 --> 00:03:36.010
Everybody went through the program, eventually was certified as CACREP accredited and all that.

00:03:36.715 --> 00:03:36.795
Mhmm.

00:03:36.795 --> 00:03:41.375
Even the ones that graduated before we got it, they were in what we call the window.

00:03:41.755 --> 00:03:48.575
This program will probably get it right around the time it will start graduating people or and almost immediately after.

00:03:48.960 --> 00:03:52.580
So it is a CACREP program, in waiting.

00:03:53.200 --> 00:03:56.820
And, again, it'll be shortened before it's over.

00:03:57.600 --> 00:04:01.140
But as of right now, we it is not CACREP approved.

00:04:01.695 --> 00:04:13.535
So, Divine Mercy University embraces the Catholic Christian vision of the person flourishing and educate students in important knowledge, skills, and disposition to be leaders in the professional counseling field.

00:04:13.535 --> 00:04:22.870
The PhD in counselor education supervision, or what we say is PhD CES program is part of the DMU Global Campus School of Counseling.

00:04:23.650 --> 00:04:39.705
The vision of the c CES program is to train global transformational educators, clinical supervisors, researchers, scholars, leaders, and advocates who are passionate about their role in overachieving overarching profession of counselor and education supervision.

00:04:40.325 --> 00:04:48.750
Graduates are compassionate and ethical in their work as trained professionals to honor and respect the innate dignity of every person in a global diverse population.

00:04:49.930 --> 00:05:01.475
So whether you've been a DMU or not, it's important to understand kind of our our thought process on not only this program, but all of our programs.

00:05:02.175 --> 00:05:08.355
And that kinda gives you a brief overview of the program and our our kind of our thought process.

00:05:08.975 --> 00:05:19.340
I do wanna mention that, tomorrow is the deadline for anybody that wants to submit for the early admit scholarship, which is $2,000.

00:05:19.960 --> 00:05:25.340
And all you need is part one in there, and there's two parts to the application.

00:05:25.400 --> 00:05:32.865
One is the application itself, and then the second part will be the submission of some things that we'll go through in a minute.

00:05:34.685 --> 00:05:53.210
So, the mission of the school of counseling is develop and maintain a worldwide educational community, offer masters and doctoral level degree programs, professional counseling, and support of DMU's integrative mission with a culture of feedback wherein student voices are heard and respected.

00:05:55.545 --> 00:06:00.365
These are kind of the the important things for anybody looking into these programs.

00:06:01.865 --> 00:06:12.910
Students will be prepared to hear the rich and complex voices of clients and counseling students a view each of each person's flourishing even in the midst of human difficulty and challenge.

00:06:13.930 --> 00:06:24.915
Two, they'll demonstrate compassionate, versatile, interpersonal skills to develop healing relationships with clients, transformative training with counseling students, and collaboration with other professions.

00:06:25.695 --> 00:06:39.160
Three, will become a professional counselors and counselor educator who in who is informed by a Catholic Christian vision of a flourishing person, inspire themselves and others to have a courage to trust, hope, and love.

00:06:39.940 --> 00:06:52.785
The online counselor program and CES provides rigorous training and counselor education to prepare students for academic research, clinical, consulting, and leadership careers.

00:06:53.325 --> 00:07:08.780
The program is uniquely designed to facilitate a deeper and holistic understanding of a flourishing person by integrating the wisdom of philosophy and theology with a cutting edge research in counselor education, enabling students to make a difference in a variety of settings across the worlds.

00:07:09.800 --> 00:07:35.010
Basically, you'll acquire the necessary skills to engage in the scholarly examination of counseling processes and theories with integration and the practice of counseling and the Catholic Christian vision of a flourishing person, the science and art of counseling supervision, the development of teaching methods, roles, and responsibilities related to educating counselors.

00:07:35.870 --> 00:07:44.725
Original research in the areas of interest, receive faculty support, interact with students, and researchers from diverse areas of expertise.

00:07:45.425 --> 00:07:50.885
I present their research in a variety of settings to advance the field of professional counseling and counselor education.

00:07:51.825 --> 00:08:05.390
The science and art and leadership and administration for the counseling profession, professional organizations, council education, and their local community, the global community, and the communities of Catholic Christian faith.

00:08:07.450 --> 00:08:13.905
These are right along with the CACREP standards, doctoral curriculum.

00:08:15.845 --> 00:08:21.945
And then I'm not gonna read through everything, so don't worry about that part, but it's important for us to kinda let you know who we are.

00:08:22.645 --> 00:08:38.330
The program overview, the program is a 90 credit doctoral program built on DMU's master's in counseling, clinical mental health counseling program as a foundation incorporates 30 credits from the program for the 90 credit doctoral program.

00:08:39.435 --> 00:08:54.735
What that also means is if you graduated with your master's from another school and you're licensed, theoretically, you should be able to transfer in 30 credits and and be able to only need to take the 60 credits.

00:08:56.690 --> 00:09:01.670
Students with graduate degrees, can transfer up to 30 credits into the PhD program.

00:09:02.690 --> 00:09:09.855
The doctoral program requires an additional sixty credit hours of coursework addressing professional roles in five areas.

00:09:09.855 --> 00:09:17.235
And these are important for you guys to understand because it's really relevant to what you may or may not want to do in your careers.

00:09:18.495 --> 00:09:20.755
The first one is obviously counseling.

00:09:20.815 --> 00:09:21.955
Second is supervision.

00:09:22.640 --> 00:09:27.620
Third is teaching, fourth is research and scholarship, and leadership and advocacy.

00:09:28.480 --> 00:09:37.700
Additionally, students are required to compete internship experiences in advanced counseling, supervision and teaching, and doctoral dissertation of original research.

00:09:39.165 --> 00:09:46.145
There are three extended weekend residencies at our campus, so you would be required to come in for those.

00:09:47.245 --> 00:09:54.980
They're once a year and they start pretty the first one's pretty quick in the program and then pretty much a year later.

00:09:56.080 --> 00:10:05.380
The residents are residencies are designed as working residency where students gather to encourage each other, practice skills they're learning, and focus on the completion of the dissertations.

00:10:09.215 --> 00:10:30.630
When you're not at the school, we do use state of the art technology for both asynchronous traditional online learning with significant use of videotaping various clinical and professional skills to be viewed by peers and faculty and synchronous learning where students will have virtual face to face interactions in their learning process.

00:10:33.490 --> 00:10:39.265
If you're looking at what you can do as a career with this degree once you complete, academia.

00:10:39.725 --> 00:10:48.045
You can work as a professor or faculty member, department chair, program director, curriculum developer, subject matter expert.

00:10:48.045 --> 00:10:50.465
There's a slew of other things under that area.

00:10:51.960 --> 00:10:53.500
Clinical practice and supervision.

00:10:53.800 --> 00:10:57.160
Many folks have said, like, I just want to continue on my practice.

00:10:57.160 --> 00:11:02.860
I just wanna be smarter about it, and I want to be able to do some other things with the license or the degree.

00:11:04.035 --> 00:11:11.095
Some of those require our licensed professional counselor, clinical supervisor, mental health administrator.

00:11:12.835 --> 00:11:16.995
And if you're out in the field already, you know, there's several other areas you can work in.

00:11:16.995 --> 00:11:20.350
We've chosen not to list in some exhaustive list.

00:11:21.610 --> 00:11:35.745
There's other folks that, you know, want to continue their practice, but also have a desire to, create research and evaluation so they can become a research scientist, a program evaluator, a grant writer.

00:11:37.245 --> 00:11:42.945
They can write books, white papers, tons of other things.

00:11:43.485 --> 00:11:50.840
If you're looking to get published, this is a good way to understand how to really work that from a more senior level.

00:11:51.460 --> 00:12:05.855
Then, of course, there's leadership and administration, higher education administrator, nonprofit administrator, government agency administrator, again, in academia, you can come in and, you know, be a division chair to a number of other things.

00:12:06.555 --> 00:12:16.655
And then, you know, a lot of folks look to do things like, write books, articles, or develop workshops and counseling topics, become a public speaker.

00:12:17.515 --> 00:12:19.215
They can be used as a consultant.

00:12:19.920 --> 00:12:26.180
There's a number of areas that this degree really helps, you know, folks move forward.

00:12:26.960 --> 00:12:31.620
So it's kind of a brief overview in that area.

00:12:32.160 --> 00:12:43.485
And then what I'm gonna do is, we're not gonna go through everything like course descriptions.

00:12:47.305 --> 00:12:49.945
But what we will do is I'm sorry.

00:12:49.945 --> 00:12:51.485
Gotta get back over here.

00:12:52.710 --> 00:12:53.210
Alright.

00:12:53.590 --> 00:13:00.810
So for those, you know, we talked about our accreditation.

00:13:01.910 --> 00:13:18.955
We are, as a school, accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges, SACS, and our master's program in counseling is CACREP accredited.

00:13:19.770 --> 00:13:26.030
Our PsyD program in clinical psychology is, APA accredited.

00:13:27.050 --> 00:13:36.345
And then we're set up through the state of Virginia, to operate as a university.

00:13:36.805 --> 00:13:44.345
So, again, on our website, you can see all these things, and, they can help you understand, accreditation.

00:13:46.550 --> 00:13:48.250
Rosie asked a question earlier.

00:13:48.710 --> 00:13:50.730
You know, are we CAKE CREP accredited?

00:13:51.270 --> 00:13:53.670
This program is not CAKE CREP accredited yet.

00:13:53.670 --> 00:13:59.130
It will be we will be submitting our request when it's time it's appropriate to do so.

00:14:00.375 --> 00:14:03.755
And we're pretty confident we'll be okay in that area.

00:14:03.895 --> 00:14:11.975
When we submitted for our master's program, we got a full grant, and, you know, we we did it in pretty quick time.

00:14:11.975 --> 00:14:13.755
So we were pretty happy with that.

00:14:14.920 --> 00:14:17.500
So let's talk a little bit about program requirements.

00:14:21.800 --> 00:14:36.075
So everything that I'm viewing, I want you guys to understand is on the website, And you can go back later on if I've gone too quick or I didn't answer a question for you, but it'll help you understand where to go get this information.

00:14:36.855 --> 00:14:41.175
So the PhD in counselor education supervision consists of ninety credit hours.

00:14:41.175 --> 00:14:42.475
You talked about that.

00:14:43.410 --> 00:14:47.090
You get the following information is relevant to this.

00:14:47.090 --> 00:14:54.950
You have your 30 credits coming in from your master's degree, then there's seven core content courses, which is 21 credits.

00:14:55.330 --> 00:14:58.230
There's three courses and internships with seven credits.

00:14:58.745 --> 00:15:07.965
Three courses in integration with six credits, three courses in research, which is nine credits, and 17 credits in dissertation research and writing.

00:15:09.145 --> 00:15:23.530
I won't go through all of the other things like residencies or everything, like, academic good standing, any of those kind of things that have as all being master's level folks, you've kinda gone through this.

00:15:25.270 --> 00:15:27.290
As I mentioned earlier, there's three residencies.

00:15:28.925 --> 00:15:38.145
And, basically, the first residency is during the first course of the in the program and then same term each year following year for students in the program full time.

00:15:38.685 --> 00:15:52.240
So if you're part time, it may adjust as to when these would happen, but, theoretically, you're doing these at the beginning of each year.

00:15:52.780 --> 00:16:03.635
The first one is a c s CES seven forty, advanced seminar and professional identity, legal and ethical issues, and CES to three day residency in week four.

00:16:04.735 --> 00:16:12.970
CES seven ninety one is your internship two supervision, four day residency two in week eight, and that's year two.

00:16:13.990 --> 00:16:17.530
CES eight ninety nine, dissertation research and writings, five.

00:16:17.910 --> 00:16:24.570
That's a four day residency, three in week one, and that would be the last semester.

00:16:26.805 --> 00:16:34.345
Again, I won't go through all these, but you can see things like academic good standing, passing grade, retaking courses, incompletes, those kind of things.

00:16:35.045 --> 00:16:38.265
So it tells you a little bit about the residencies.

00:16:41.040 --> 00:16:46.980
Oh, the curriculum.

00:16:49.280 --> 00:17:00.725
Again, I won't go through all of these, but this is where you can take a look and see the different courses and their identity, if you will.

00:17:01.345 --> 00:17:11.050
So you'll see we bring spring one a actually is our January start, which we're currently taking applications for.

00:17:12.470 --> 00:17:15.690
You can see spring one a and spring one b.

00:17:15.990 --> 00:17:20.170
Our program is is based on terms.

00:17:20.825 --> 00:17:27.245
So one a would be eight weeks, spring one b would be eight weeks to fulfill a sixteen week term.

00:17:27.705 --> 00:17:33.325
And then you can kinda see the courses in each term, and then it goes down from there.

00:17:33.465 --> 00:17:36.525
So, again, I won't walk through all of these with you guys.

00:17:36.800 --> 00:17:46.100
I just want you to be aware of where they're at and allow you to peruse it on your own, and go from there.

00:17:46.560 --> 00:17:47.700
So that's your curriculum.

00:17:48.560 --> 00:17:56.455
Course descriptions, if you really want to learn, you know, what each course is, this is where you're gonna find out what's in that course.

00:17:57.555 --> 00:18:01.575
And it it gives a pretty good idea of what what you're gonna learn.

00:18:02.915 --> 00:18:13.750
So this should help you understand things that maybe you have specific questions on regarding what skill sets you acquire, what education you require acquire, all those kind of thing.

00:18:16.275 --> 00:18:18.935
I will introduce you a little bit to our faculty.

00:18:20.595 --> 00:18:27.895
We have find it here.

00:18:30.300 --> 00:18:41.840
So these are the different folks that we have working in the program, and the, program director currently is doctor Steven Sharp, which is over here.

00:18:42.425 --> 00:18:47.965
And then over here you can see all the different, faculty we have in the program.

00:18:49.305 --> 00:18:51.405
We're pretty proud of our faculty.

00:18:51.785 --> 00:19:02.340
We have a very strong faculty and they are, you know, not being a a a counseling guy.

00:19:02.340 --> 00:19:15.565
What I can tell you is our folks come out highly prepared, highly motivated, and I I hear nothing but rave reviews from our students as they go through the program regarding their faculty members.

00:19:15.565 --> 00:19:21.665
So they learn a lot, and they do it in a positive way, which we think is the the right way to do it.

00:19:22.445 --> 00:19:27.025
I've been in education for thirty years, and it's probably one of the best faculties I've ever seen actually.

00:19:29.420 --> 00:19:30.480
Admissions requirements.

00:19:30.700 --> 00:19:32.400
Let's talk a minute about that.

00:19:32.540 --> 00:19:38.880
If you're interested in applying, these are gonna be the requirements you're gonna need.

00:19:39.500 --> 00:19:47.875
A master's degree in counseling or a related mental health field from an institution institution accredited by an agency recognized by the Department of Education.

00:19:50.495 --> 00:20:01.040
Preference will be given to applicants who are professionally credentialed in a mental health occupation, clinical or school counseling, marriage and family therapy, social work, psychology, etcetera.

00:20:02.780 --> 00:20:13.815
Those accepted without such credentials will need to take the necessary extra courses and internships for those credentials before graduating from the CES program.

00:20:14.835 --> 00:20:23.575
Your graduate degree cumulative GPA, minimum of three point o on a GPA scale of four point o.

00:20:24.150 --> 00:20:31.530
You need to complete the application process, which comp which includes completed application for admissions document.

00:20:31.590 --> 00:20:33.930
That's the first document that I told you about.

00:20:34.470 --> 00:20:37.930
One recommendation form from an academic reference.

00:20:39.155 --> 00:20:46.755
If you believe you may have trouble obtaining an academic reference, maybe you've been out a while, please contact, me and let me know.

00:20:46.755 --> 00:20:48.375
We'll talk about an alternative.

00:20:49.235 --> 00:20:54.855
Submission of official transcript from all post secondary institutions even if a degree was not awarded.

00:20:56.010 --> 00:21:08.670
Submission of essays as noted in application for admissions document, and two video clips of clinical work, role play, and a teaching, slash presentation minimum of twenty minutes each.

00:21:09.095 --> 00:21:10.615
Again, these can be role play.

00:21:10.615 --> 00:21:12.555
They don't have to be from actual sessions.

00:21:13.015 --> 00:21:19.355
If they are from sessions, they need to be FERPA relevant, and I'm sure you all understand that.

00:21:20.775 --> 00:21:26.670
Current, curriculum detail or resume, There isn't a 25 or I'm sorry.

00:21:26.670 --> 00:21:31.170
$55 application fee, but there is an application fee waiver.

00:21:32.750 --> 00:21:35.730
It and we can give that to you when you're ready.

00:21:38.565 --> 00:21:42.185
There'll be two video conferences, one with myself.

00:21:44.005 --> 00:21:49.465
We'll go through the you know, any of your questions, any of your thoughts, and and all that kind of stuff.

00:21:49.845 --> 00:22:19.265
And then once you've submitted all of your documents, which is the second part of your application, you would be, and we've talked, you'd be required to, sit in on a group interview with the, program director and faculty, some faculty members, to talk to you about the program, what you're looking for, and how you could fit into what we do.

00:22:22.380 --> 00:22:27.100
If you're international, please raise your hand or note in the chat.

00:22:27.100 --> 00:22:29.600
Otherwise, I'll skip an international part.

00:22:29.980 --> 00:22:32.400
I don't think we have any international students.

00:22:33.740 --> 00:22:34.240
Okay.

00:22:36.055 --> 00:22:42.395
If we do, I'll come back or connect with you online, afterwards in another way.

00:22:44.855 --> 00:22:49.035
After all, application materials have been completed and received by our admissions office.

00:22:49.460 --> 00:22:56.120
The applicant will be invited to schedule a video conference interview with admissions pending and it's not all against part one.

00:22:56.580 --> 00:23:06.345
I will talk to you guys after the initial application is submitted, and then we'll talk about how to finish your application submission for the group interview.

00:23:09.925 --> 00:23:20.330
You're not admitted until you get through that group interview, and you have been, given the green light from the program director.

00:23:20.390 --> 00:23:28.710
For those that want to come into the program and don't meet the requirements, but, I'm sorry.

00:23:28.710 --> 00:23:36.705
If you're looking to join in other programs, like, we have a PsyD in clinical psychology, and then we have this PhD in counselor education and supervision.

00:23:37.405 --> 00:23:42.785
You would have to meet with the other area as well if you're considering one or the other.

00:23:43.085 --> 00:23:47.185
Again, this program is online with the with the residency components.

00:23:47.750 --> 00:23:50.890
Our PsyD program is actually a 100% on campus.

00:23:54.710 --> 00:24:20.500
Successful participants in the in the CES program will demonstrate not only strong academic aptitude, but exceptional research and writing skills, ability to gain knowledge that covers both a breadth of in the field, a professional counseling and depth in specific area of the field, but also grit, the ability to persevere in the lengthy process of research and writing to complete the dissertation.

00:24:21.520 --> 00:24:34.155
In order to best support students in this endeavor, the PhD in counter education, at DMU uses a cohort model to create a learning community with three extended residences on campus.

00:24:34.615 --> 00:24:41.435
The initial cohort requires a minimum number of applicants to ensure a cohort size leads to an ideal learning environment.

00:24:42.135 --> 00:24:44.715
The question is, what what does that look like?

00:24:46.020 --> 00:24:54.680
We are only accepting 12 students per start, and we only have two starts a year.

00:24:55.060 --> 00:25:06.455
Again, this is our initial program start and meaning January, and this is what we call the, inaugural group.

00:25:06.675 --> 00:25:07.495
Very happy.

00:25:07.795 --> 00:25:09.895
We still have a few more spaces available.

00:25:10.760 --> 00:25:18.920
We're looking to have about six or seven more applications to fill everything out, because people change, things happen, and, you know, we go from there.

00:25:18.920 --> 00:25:31.305
So we're not full yet, but we definitely want if you're interested in January, you definitely need to get your application in, especially for the early application deadline.

00:25:31.925 --> 00:25:34.825
$2,000 is still $2,000, which is nice.

00:25:37.220 --> 00:25:45.160
The, transfer piece, students may transfer up to thirty semester hours from their master's degree into the 90 credits of the PhD coursework.

00:25:45.780 --> 00:25:51.695
For transfer course to replace a PhD counselor course, the following requirements must be met.

00:25:51.755 --> 00:25:55.055
School at which the course is taken must be appropriately accredited.

00:25:55.755 --> 00:26:00.975
Each course credit must be equivalent to one semester hours or one point six seven quarter hours.

00:26:01.610 --> 00:26:04.990
The student must have earned a grade of b or better in the course.

00:26:05.530 --> 00:26:15.870
The course must overlap with the PhD and CES, by at least 80%, and then transfer credits must have been completed at postmasters work.

00:26:17.045 --> 00:26:21.545
Coursework, which is seven nine hundred level within the previous seven years to be accepted.

00:26:22.085 --> 00:26:26.505
Courses with a graded a grade of b minus or below will not be accepted.

00:26:28.500 --> 00:26:33.000
Correspondent studies or life experiences will not be accepted for transfer credit as well.

00:26:33.940 --> 00:26:38.440
So, that's a really brief overview of the program.

00:26:39.300 --> 00:26:48.725
It is an overview of what it requires to get into the program and then, you know, a little bit about Divine Mercy University.

00:26:50.465 --> 00:26:50.965
Alright.

00:26:51.025 --> 00:26:53.685
So I we'll go ahead and end here.
