Update on College Student Personnel Fall 2012 Admission

Thank you for your interest in the University of Maryland. The specializations of College Student Personnel, Higher Education Administration, and International Education Policy are working together in the reorganization of the College of Education. All three specializations will continue to be offered. Specific information on reorganization and any curricular changes will be updated online, as decisions are made. The College Student Personnel and Higher Education programs will be admitting students for Fall 2012 for the Masters and Doctoral program. The three specializations continue to be internationally recognized in their fields, and students and faculty work actively in national organizations, such as ACPA, AERA, ASHE, CIES, ILA and NASPA. We look forward to engaging our alumni networks, faculty, and students as we continue to grow. Admissions deadlines are as follows:
