I am truly grateful for this program at Providence College and for all of the work that goes into creating an elite experience for school counselors and educators. As I near the end of the program, I realize all of the time, energy, resources, and commitment it takes to provide up-to-date and relevant information to the candidates from administration and our professors. I look forward to seeing what my future holds as a professional school counselor, bringing my knowledge, life experience, and collaborative learning that I have experienced in my coursework.
