Graduate Admissions: GRE and Other Statistics  

On this page we present summary statistical information about the application process and about the department that should be of interest to applicants. We hope it will help you as you learn about and compare various graduate programs.

Number of Applicants, Number Interviewed, Number Accepted, and Number who Entered

Note: CMH = Mental Health Counseling Program, PRC = Professional Counseling Program, REH = Rehabilitation Counseling Program, SCO = School Counseling Program, SPS = School Psychology Program, CEP (COU) = Counselor Education and Practice PhD Program, CPY - Counseling Psychology PhD Program. The PhD programs have formal interviews. Other programs may decide to formally interview like the PhD programs and/or informally interview applicants (e.g., phone, email, at conferences). Most students who withdrew did so because they had accepted another offer.
