According to Federal Regulation 34 CFR
668.43(a)(5)(v), if an educational program, such as the Golden Gate University
Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology, is designed to meet educational
requirements for a specific professional license or certification required for
employment in an occupation, or is advertised as meeting such requirements, the
institution must provide information regarding whether the program would be
sufficient to meet licensure requirements in a State for that occupation. The institution must disclose to prospective
students if it has determined the curriculum meets the State educational
requirements for licensure or certification, if it has determined the curriculum
does not meet the State educational requirements for licensure or
certification, or if the institution has not made a determination the
curriculum meets the State educational requirements for licensure or
certification. Additionally, some states may have limitations on whether a
practicum or internship is allowed and which may affect licensing.
As
of the date this form is signed, the Golden Gate University Master of Arts in Counseling
Psychology meets California educational requirements for licensure and
certification. The determination for
other States can be found here. Additionally, as of the date this form is signed, Golden Gate University is not authorized to provide online
education to students living in the following states which can be found here.
