I signed up for 4 courses through the online Clinical Mental Health Counseling program. My graduate degree (in NJ) was 12 credits short of the requirements for LAC licensure, so I figured online courses at Medaille would be an easy way to complete the requirement.Boy was I wrong.Saying the quality of courses an F is too generous. Each course has the same exact weekly assignments. There is no deviation, even though the course material is completely different. Nearly all the assignments are useless. The most ridiculous was the class "project" in MH630 Psychopathy - we had to RETYPE THE DSM 5. Not analyze it, not write a case study, not any kind of critical thinking assignment - we literally had to COPY the DSM 5 into charts listing the symptoms, diagnostic criteria, risk factors, and differential diagnosis for each disorder.Even though I basically only needed these classes to rubber stamp my LAC application, it was still an extremely disappointing experience - I enjoyed grad school & would have loved to further my clinical knowledge. Another review called Medaille a diploma mill; I absolutely agree with that assessment. DO NOT complete the full MHC master's here - you will learn nothing and waste a whole lot of money.
