- Montclair State University’s SAC program was truly a wonderful experience. All of the professors made the classes enjoyable and their enthusiasm for the material was very much appreciated. I can honestly say that I enjoyed all of the classes taken for this program and it prepared me for my future as a SAC counselor.

- Having received my MA in School Counseling from MSU, choosing to return to campus to receive my SAC Certificate was a no brainer! Being a working School Counselor with a family, finding time to take courses is never easy, but the opportunities provided by MSU fit my schedule and helped me progress through the program as easily as possible. The courses were challenging and interesting; the professors were knowledgeable and accessible. Being able to move through my coursework knowing I was fully supported by not only my Adviser, but my professors as well, made me confident I made the right choice in returning to MSU for my SAC Certificate.
