FLORIDA CAMPUS Scenes from the Colleges
Registration at Florida campus
N LU’s campus in Tampa, Florida has experienced significant growth and expansion in recent years. One of the most exciting developments is the introduction of the Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) program, which provides teacher certification in just 15 months. The program aims to address Florida’s 10,000-teacher shortage and offers credentials in exceptional student education, English as a second language, and reading endorsements. The first cohort of students graduated with a 100% completion rate. The Tampa campus has also expanded its impact in mental health education. Its clinical psychology and counseling programs hold prestigious accreditations from the well-regarded American Psychological Association (APA) and Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP), ensuring high
employment prospects for graduates. The clinical mental health counseling program has become the largest program, responding to the projected 40% shortage of mental health professionals in the United States by 2030. Enrollment has surged, growing from 200 students in 2020 to over 600 in 2024. This rapid growth led to the relocation of the campus to a larger facility in Fall 2024, offering improved student amenities, study spaces, and a world-class gym. Additional faculty and staff have been hired to support the growing student body. NLU remains committed to expanding programs in Florida, including a medical assistant workforce credential. WITH RECORD ENROLLMENT, NATIONAL ACCREDITATIONS, AND NEW PROGRAMS, NLU TAMPA IS BECOMING A HUB FOR TEACHER AND MENTAL HEALTH EDUCATION.
