Graduation Rate and the AMFTRB National Exam:
While there have been a number of students since 2005 who have chosen to leave the program due to family crises, personal crises, choosing a different field of study, or some other reason, the vast majority of the students who are selected for our program finish within the advertised time. Students who choose to take the AMFTRB National Exam, a requirement for licensure in the state of Mississippi as well as in many other states, are very successful. With an overall 100% pass rate, our student pass rate is higher than the COAMFTE minimum standard.
