Program details
Overview
Counselling Psychology is a Master of Education program offered through the Department of Applied Psychology and Human Development at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE), University of Toronto. It develops counselling skills for practice across a range of work settings and is organized into three fields: Counselling and Psychotherapy, Global Mental Health and Counselling Psychology, and Guidance and Counselling. The program is typically offered on a full-time basis, with a limited number of part-time spots available. Full-time students generally complete the degree over five sessions, close to two years, following a Fall-Winter-Summer-Fall-Winter registration pattern; part-time study extends over ten sessions. The program is delivered in person on the St. George campus, with admission each September. It suits applicants seeking a practice-oriented, professional counselling credential rather than a thesis-based research degree.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Applicants need an appropriate bachelor's degree in any discipline, with a minimum admission average equivalent to a University of Toronto B+ or better in the final year of study. No standardized admission tests, such as the GRE, are required or recommended.
