Students with a 48-credit (minimum) master’s degree in professional counseling or a closely related field may apply to this goal program to complete the educational requirements to become a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania. Students seeking professional counseling licensure in other states are responsible for familiarizing themselves with those specific requirements and seeking feedback from the relevant State Boards.
Key Highlights:
Specific credits and coursework requirements will be individualized based on the feedback from the State Board(s). Students may take as few courses as is required to meet the State Board’s educational requirements.
Students gain practical experience through counseling labs equipped with recording and observation tools, as well as internship opportunities. This applied approach prepares you for real-world counseling settings across mental health agencies, private practice, schools, and beyond.
This program is designed around your prior coursework and State Board requirements, meaning you only take the classes you actually need. Whether you need just a few credits or a more comprehensive plan, your path is tailored to help you efficiently reach LPC eligibility.
With courses offered in-person, hybrid, and online formats during fall, spring, and summer, the program fits into your schedule. Evening class times make it easier to balance your education with full-time work or other commitments.
