Master of Education in School Counseling online Credentialing
The USC Rossier Master of Education in School Counseling online program prepares educators to make a difference in the lives of students as K-12 school counselors.
This program leads to eligibility for California State Certification as a school counselor for grades K-12.
Students may also be eligible for certification in other states outside of California, however, certification requirements differ from state to state. Most state school counseling boards require a master’s degree, testing, and potentially additional post-graduate coursework requirements. We encourage students to research the requirements specific to their resident state. Resources for each state’s school counseling board can be found below:
