The Marriage & Family Therapy Program (MFT) at Adler Graduate School allows the applicant to take only the courses required for licensure by the Minnesota Board of Marriage & Family Therapy. To be considered for the MFT track, applicants must contact the Office of Admissions to make an appointment with the Director of Admissions and Student Services. For the meeting you will need to provide official transcripts from all previous graduate-level coursework. At that time an evaluation of your previous coursework will be performed to determine which of your prior courses will apply toward licensure and whether additional internship hours are necessary.
