Accidentally Found Two Doctoral Programs with No Dissertation or No Residency

[TMW2010]

Hmmm... That ASU degree sounds tempting, if it's still offered in 3 to 4 years... I've been in talks with the director of a local university about their M.Ed. program in Applied Behavioral Studies which leads being qualified to sit for the Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) exam and subsequent work requirement, and it looks like I might try to start that next fall. It'll be my first attempt at a 'traditional' college experience in almost 20 years, but it's still got some non-traditional aspects to it - it's accelerated with a night a week and one to two weekend sessions per 8 week class. Unfortunately, I don't think they (ASU) would accept the temporary license granted to those going through the work experience requirement before the actual LPC certification is granted.

Only downside is that it'll be my second M.Ed. so until I complete the LPC cert, I wouldn't have any extra cool designations to stick on my business cards after my name
