Family Therapy Certificate Program Plan For Full-Time Students
Any applicant to the Advanced Standing Program who is also
interested in the Family Therapy Certificate Program must have
a prior GPA of at least 3.0 and must apply to the FTC Program
within two weeks of receipt of their SSW acceptance packet.
The following is a full-time Advanced Study program plan. Part-time
AS students should meet with the director of the FTCP to discuss
their participation in the program. An FTCP application can
be obtained from the secretary for the clinical practice sequence
at 617-353-3752 and should be returned to the Clinical Practice
Sequence Secretary. Only applicants who have paid their deposit
will be considered for the FTC program. Applicants will be notified
of acceptance into the FTC Program within six weeks of application.
FTCP applicants must plan to attend BUSSW full time
during the academic year that they enter and complete three*
courses the following summer. Courses will be completed by early
August. Please review the program plan carefully.
