Advancement to Candidacy
January 2019 TBD
Students no longer need to complete the Advancement to Candidacy application and narratives.
The office of Graduate Studies compiles a list of eligible students each spring for faculty to review during the annual student review meeting. This faculty meeting is an opportunity for the professors to review and formally assess the work you have accomplished as a counselor education student at Stetson University. Upon a student’s completion of 18 hours of coursework, students become eligible to Advance to Candidacy. Faculty make advancement decisions based on the rubric criteria. The Department notifies students by letter when they advance to candidacy. Failure to meet the rubric criteria at a score of three (3) or higher results in remediation of the student or dismissal from the program.
