The mission of the Master of Arts (M.A.) with Concentrations in Psychology and Counseling program is to educate future psychologists and counselor practitioners to identify and treat psychological problems and issues in a variety of clinical, educational, and workplace settings.
The program is designed specifically to offer the traditional courses and supervised internship experiences that are increasingly required by state and national agencies and credentialing bodies. Working with a team of faculty advisors who hold doctoral degrees and possess relevant practitioner experience, learners engage in critical inquiry, thoroughly examine and interact with the literature, theory, and research, and pursue and share the results of applied research.

Union Now Offers CLEP & DANTES Testing
Tests can help learners earn degrees faster
CINCINNATI, OH – Union Institute & University (UI&U), a non-profit private university that offers undergraduate and graduate programs designed for the adult learner, is now certified to administer the College-Level Examination Program (CLEP) and DANTES Tests, both designed to accelerate a learner’s degree completion.
Learners take CLEP and DANTES tests for a variety of reasons. Some use the computer-based tests to shorten the time it takes to earn a college degree, thereby saving money on tuition and fees. Others take them to move on to more advanced courses sooner, complete basic requirements in order to take more electives, or satisfy college requirements. Tests are available in several subjects in disciplines including composition and literature, science and mathematics, foreign languages, business, and history and social sciences.
“By offering these tests, we are furthering our mission to help adult learners in earning a bachelor’s degree through programs that are both accelerated and affordable,” said Dr. Gregory Stewart, Vice President of Enrollment Management for UI&U.
Union administers CLEP and DANTES tests at their Walnut Hills location every Tuesday and Thursday of each month and one Saturday each month. The tests are open to the public, however, registration is required. CLEP tests are $70 per test and DANTES are $80 per test, in addition, UI&U charges a $14 administrative fee. Members of the military are eligible to take DANTES tests free of charge, and pay no administrative fee for CLEP testing. The university offers free, off-street parking and at-the-door entry to the testing center. This will save the public time reaching the testing center.
Tests are administered 9 a.m.-4 p.m. by appointment. Upcoming Test Dates are as follows:
