Help Chandler Get Her Master's Degree
Hi, my name is Chandler Yates and I recently got accepted into grad school at Jacksonville University here in Jacksonville, FL. I will be obtaining my MS in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. This is a highly competitive program, only admitting 24 students per year. I am honored to have this opportunity. Once I complete the program I will be eligible to obtain licensure in the state of FL as a counselor, and I plan to work in private practice here in Jacksonville.
Since graduating college with a psychology degree I have been working in the hospitality industry; and for the past three years I have been selling real estate. Although I enjoyed my work, I knew it was not what I wanted to do the rest of my life. I was encouraged by friends and mentors to go back to school to pursue my true passion for helping people with their mental health and well being.
After having to use student loans for my undergraduate degree, I really want to avoid going into more debt for my Master's. Any help in getting me to my goal would be greatly appreciated.
