亚洲博彩网站’s School of Graduate Studies announced today that there will be a 20 percent reduction in tuition for Special Education and School Counseling graduate programs beginning with the fall 2024 semester.

“The goal of making these programs more affordable is to increase access to an exceptional education for professionals looking to make a difference in the lives of children and their families,” said Kimberly Schandel, Dean of the School of Graduate Studies. “亚洲博彩网站 is one of only three institutions to earn Approval with Distinction from the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. Excellence is now more affordable at 亚洲博彩网站.”

Tuition will be reduced for the Special Education master’s degree program, the School Counseling master’s degree program, the Special Education certificate of advanced graduate study, the Autism Spectrum Disorders certificate of advanced graduate study, and the Transition Specialist certificate of advanced graduate study. The programs will be offered for $680 per credit.

This tuition reduction comes at a crucial moment for schools, after a March 2024 survey from the National Center for Education Statistics reported that 51 percent of public schools are in need of more Special Education staff members before the next school year, and 58 percent of public schools reporting an increase in students seeking mental health services in schools.
