General Information
The Division of Counseling and Family Therapy is housed on the
fourth floor of Marillac Hall. Information about offerings and related
matters may be obtained in the Division office, 469 Marillac Hall. The
Division of Counseling and Family Therapy offers course work leading to
four degrees: the Ph.D. in Education with an Emphasis in Counseling; the
Ed.D. in Behavioral Developmental Processes with an emphasis in Counselor
Education and supervision; an M.Ed. in Community Counseling and an M.Ed.
in School Counseling (elementary or secondary). Information on the doctoral
degrees is presented in this Bulletin in the general College of Education
listing.
The following Division of Counseling and Family Therapy areas have been
accredited by the Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related
Educational Programs (CACREP):
- M.Ed. in Community Counseling
- M.Ed. in Community Counseling
with a Specialization in Career Counseling
- M.Ed. in School Counseling
CACREP, a specialized accrediting body recognized by the Commission on
Recognition of Postsecondary Accreditation, grants accredited status to
graduate-level programs in the professional counseling field.
Students wishing to receive Missouri certification in elementary school
counseling, or secondary school counseling, must complete all required
courses for the M.Ed. in School Counseling in addition to holding teaching
certificates valid in Missouri or taking the equivalent coursework . (Consult
your advisor if you have questions on these matters.) The M.Ed. in Community
Counseling is appropriate for students planning to practice counseling
in non school settings, and graduates may pursue the Missouri state license
as a professional counselor (in order to practice independently).
The M.Ed. degree programs have an exit requirement of a comprehensive
examination. Students may sit for the exam after completing 36 units
of the degree program. There is a service charge for taking the exam.
The exam will be given at least twice a year. All degree students should
consult with their advisers about this requirement.
Graduate Studies
Admission
In addition to meeting the general admission requirements of
the Graduate School, applicants to the M.Ed., must complete the divisional
application in addition to the application to Graduate School, have three
completed references on file, must have an undergraduate GPA of 3.0, and
must take Cns. Ed 6000(410), Personal and Professional Development in
Counseling, in their first semester. Admissions will be conducted twice
a year. The deadlines for application are June 1 for the fall semester
and November 1 for the spring semester. M.Ed. students, are accepted
on a provisional basis pending their completion of application materials,
Cns Ed 6000(410), and a review of the Counseling Faculty Review Board.
Since it is the objective of the counseling faculty to identify students
with low potential for competent practice as early as possible and to
initiate the necessary procedures for dealing with such students, the
faculty of the counseling program reserves the right to review students
at any stage of their coursework. Any grade less than a B in any core
counseling course (Cns Ed 6000(410), Personal and Professional Development
in Counseling; Cns Ed 6010(411), Theories of Counseling; Cns Ed 6370(485),
Community Counseling Practium or Cns Ed 6270(482) School Counseling Practicum;
Cns Ed 6380(486) Community Counseling Field Experience or Cns Ed 6280(483)
School Counseling Field Experience I) will automatically trigger a review
process which may result in the termination of the student’s degree program.
Students admitted to the M.Ed. degree programs in counseling as “restricted
graduate students” (see the “graduate study” rules in this Bulletin) must
attain a 3.0 GPA for the first 12 hours of graduate course work at UM-St.
Louis with no grade less than a B. Restricted students must include the

Career Outlook
Elementary and Secondary School Counselors
The demand for school counselors throughout the state is quite high.
There is a shortage of school counseling personnel at all levels. Additionally,
many teachers who do not intend to leave the classroom pursue this program
to be better able to meet the needs of their students. Some graduates
of the program have left the field of education and have obtained positions
such as those cited under Community Counseling.
Note: It should be noted that in Missouri, persons who engage
in "professional counseling" in many of these settings are required
by law to be licensed as professional counselors.
Community Counselors
Graduates have been employed in a wide variety of settings: as counselors
in community colleges, universities, employment agencies, vocational rehabilitation
agencies, probation and parole work, juvenile detention, alcoholism and
drug abuse clinics, career planning and placement centers, community mental
health agencies, family and children services, and various federally funded
public service projects. Additionally, graduates are employed in career
development, and business and industry positions, especially in training
and personnel areas. Others have moved into roles calling
for research and evaluation skills.
