Student-at-Large/Non-Degree Seeking Student/Certificate Student From time-to-time students who are already in a master’s in counseling program or have already completed their master’s degree in counseling may need to take one or two courses to address changing requirements of licensure boards. These students will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis regarding their needs. Faculty will review their needs but also review how their acceptance could influence the student body. Certificate students are individuals who typically need to complete 4–5 courses (12–15 semester hours), usually to address requirements outlined in a deficiency letter from a state licensing board.
