COAMFTE Graduate Achievement Criteria Data Disclosures

The Falk College Marriage & Family Therapy programs are accredited by The Commission on Accreditation for Marriage and Family Therapy Education (COAMFTE), coa@aamft.org. COAMFTE is recognized by the Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA). As a part of our accreditation, we are asked to provide consistent information about academic quality and graduate achievement to foster continuing public awareness, confidence, and investment. We do this in an annual report on graduate achievement. Below are charts outlining our annual graduation rates, job placement rates and licensure rates.
