The Student Composition

The student composition is diverse in nature in that students of different ages, backgrounds, and ethnicities, are accepted into the program. Students presently are attracted from the Northeastern US but there are several students from abroad. Students in the Masters Degree Program, while not always, generally are graduates from psychology, social science, or sociology undergraduate programs. Students in the Professional Diploma and the Advanced Certificate in Sex Therapy are trained in some capacity as therapists and are representative of the more experienced clinician. Educators and guidance counselors are the primary attendees of the Certificate in Family Therapy program.

In addition to the above listed students, many religious leaders participate in the MFT programs. Several Deacons, Rabbis, Nuns and Priests have graduated from the Programs. Other professionals who have attended the program are: attorneys, dentists, social workers, psychologists, and mental health counselors.
