Curriculum Planning Worksheet for MAPC
60 hour Three Year License Track
In order to meet the current licensure requirements of the state of Illinois (LPC as a base for moving toward LCPC), and to respond to developing nationwide trends toward interstate licensure portability, while continuing to provide the integrative pastoral focus of Loyola’s MA Pastoral Counseling degree, the degree has moved to a three year, 60 hour design. Courses required for licensure are so indicated (*see bolded courses).
Half-time students will tailor their course selection with their advisor.
- LPC = Licensed Professional Counselor
- LCPC = Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor
