The program is rigorous however the faculty support is great. I am a distance student so I cannot respond to some of the questions.

Great faculty and courses are focused on theory and research.

Definitely intense but is a good fit if you're looking for a research and theory based program. Heavily online focused (most students in the program are distance).

Pros-the counseling program is very competitive because it is accredited. The teachers are very knowledgeable and helpful. The staff really want to see us students succeed in this field. The cons as with any graduate school are the limitations of the availability of certain classes per semester as well as the difficulty of finding financial aid other than loans because of being a graduate student.

pros: easy to get in to quality educators cons: adviser not user friendly

I LOVE ODU's counseling program. The professors are awesome and genuinely care about your success.

The counseling professors at ODU are wonderful! They really care about their students and want to help them succeed. Every professor I've had so far is very knowledgeable and brings real world experience.

(Con)The program is a research-based program, so if an individual is interested in pursuing a career other than a professor, challenges will arise in regards to direction from faculty. (Pro) Professors are full of knowledge in regards to research areas (Pro) Great, up-to-date technology and lab equipment

Faculty are knowledgable but not always available. Very focused on theory and research, so if that's what you're interested in (which I am) then this is a good fit.

This graduate program is very versatile; as full time student, who has three jobs, I am able to find classes at the Peninsula campus, which is much closer to my home. The only downside I can think of is the availability of courses has been an issue for me: classes I need to take, are not always available the semester I need to take them.

Old Dominion University has exceptional faculty, facilities and the tuition is fair. I am excited to learn and attend such a wonderful university. The surrounding areas are not that great, however, the university does a wonderful job of maintaining preventive measures and keeping a safe environment. I don't live on campus so the affordability of living section didn't apply to me.

I have the ability to attend as a distance learner in a synchronous environment. It is a hybrid of an online and face to face learning environment. This is a wonderful opportunity but can present technology challenges at times.
