Not sure UWG is online.
"Method of Delivery
Courses are 100% face-to-face."
I think that the same must go for Univ. of The Cumberlands, as far as doctoral programs, but, as an aside, for anyone looking for an
undergraduate psychology degree program online, from an otherwise traditional bricks-and-mortar, regionally-accredited school, with what might be the lowest tuition available for regionally-accredited, very wide selection of classes and a couple of different "tracks," based on for what one anticipates for future study, and a generous transfer policy, coupled with liberal acceptance of CLEP, some DSST, and an alternative/write-up-your-life-experience offering for some classes (with dept. approval, review, etc.), The University of The Cumberlands (in Kentucky - not Cumberland Univ.) is the place.

He clearly states in his intake forms that he is practicing as a social worker, and signs his name as John Doe, LCSW PhD.I personally have no issue with it, so long as one does hold themselves out to be a licensed clinical psychologist, they are not claiming anything they aren\t. A PhD in social work also gives you the name John Doe LCSW PhD and has no ethical issues despite the fact that the PhD in SW does not lead to licensure as a clinical psychologist.I saw Cal Southern and Capella, I was wondering what other options there were.Thank you all.

I'm already a licensed therapist in Social Work, I'm looking for a PHD or Psyd to help increase my marketability and prestige for my private practice. Like it or not, when I have the title Dr. more referrals come in the door. I have confirmed this with a few colleagues. And so I don't need to be able to become a licensed psychologist, I simply need a doctorate that is legitimate.
What would be my best options?
I'm one of those who doesn't fear the dead thread.
When you decide, as you apply, after a year or two, or, once you've gone through whatever program or course on which you decide, check back on this very thread and leave the trail of breadcrumbs for the next person.
The same question has certainly arisen for others, so, you may help someone else elucidate their path.
I pray peace for you and an exciting way forward.
