The Master of Science, Applied, in Couple and Family Therapy is a course-based, non-thesis clinical program offered by the School of Social Work in the Faculty of Arts at McGill University, delivered in partnership with the Department of Psychiatry at the Jewish General Hospital.

The program is an accredited member of the Canadian Association for Couple and Family Therapy. Standard admission requires an eligible bachelor's degree with a minimum GPA of 3.0 out of 4.0, though applicants with a related bachelor's, master's, or PhD degree are also considered; English-language proficiency is required. The program admits students in the Fall term only.
