Choosing a Great Mental Health Counseling/Counselor School for Your Doctor's Degree
The mental health counseling/counselor doctor's degree program you select can have a big impact on your future. Important measures of a quality mental health counseling/counselor program can vary widely even among the top schools. When choosing a school we recommend considering some of the following factors:
Quality Overall Is Important
The overall quality of a doctor's degree school is important to ensure a good education, not just how well they do in a particular major. To make it into this list a school must rank well in our overall Best Colleges for a Doctor's Degree ranking. This ranking considered factors such as graduation rates, overall graduate earnings and other educational resources to identify great colleges and universities.
Other Factors We Consider
In addition to the above, you should consider some of the following factors:
Major Focus - How much a school focuses on mental health counseling/counselor students vs. other majors.
Major Demand - How many other mental health counseling/counselor students want to attend this school to pursue a doctor's degree.
Educational Resources - The amount of money and other resources allocated to students while they are pursuing their degree. These resources include such things as number of students per instructor and education expenditures per student.
Accreditation - Whether a school is regionally accredited and/or accredited by a recognized mental health counseling/counselor related body.
Our full ranking methodology documents in more detail how we consider these factors to identify the best schools for mental health counseling/counselor students working on their doctor's degree.
