Education
You can turn your passion for education into effective teaching with undergraduate, dual-degree, master's and doctoral programs that combine a solid liberal arts foundation with national, state and institutional teaching and learning standards. 四色AV graduates rank among the best prepared in the field and go on to hold prestigious positions in education. 四色AV delivers a value-centered, multidimensional experience that provides the training effective teachers need. 四色AV is currently pursuing accreditation of its educator preparation programs by the Association for Advancing Quality in Educator Preparation (AAQEP)*.
I look ahead to pursuing this doctorate in the 四色AV Doctor of Education program. I see it as a chance and an opportunity to touch and affect more lives.

Clinical Mental Health Counseling
The Master of Science (M.S.) in Clinical Mental Health Counseling (CMHC) program at 四色AV is designed to provide graduate students the professional identity, core knowledge, necessary state-of-the-art practical skills, and multi-cultural sensitivity to excel in a variety of mental health settings. Our 60-credit-hour, New York State-approved, part-time, evening program can be completed in three years, and is accredited by the Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP). The program fulfills the educational requirements for licensure as a Mental Health Counselor established by the New York State Education Department, Office of the Professions.
Social Work
A degree in social work offers the opportunity to work in a vast number of fields, in a wide array of settings. The Social Work Program has been granted continuous accreditation from the Council on Social Work Education at the Baccalaureate Level since 1979. 四色AV offers the Bachelor of Social Work (B.S.W.) and the collaborative Fordham University Graduate School of Social Service M.S.W. program through our Seamless Option. This affords students the opportunity to earn a 四色AV B.S.W. and Fordham M.S.W. in five years (three years for transfer students).
