Quality Overall Is Important

The overall quality of a doctor's degree school is important to ensure a good education, not just how well they do in a particular major.

• Major Focus - How much a school focuses on mental health counseling/counselor students vs. other majors.
• Major Demand - How many other mental health counseling/counselor students want to attend this school to pursue a doctor's degree.
• Educational Resources - The amount of money and other resources allocated to students while they are pursuing their degree. These resources include such things as number of students per instructor and education expenditures per student.
• Accreditation - Whether a school is regionally accredited and/or accredited by a recognized mental health counseling/counselor related body.
