Student reviews

Campus and vibes

Freshman

I would just like to begin by saying that The Chicago School of Professional Psychology has been the most caring school I have ever attended. My acceptance process was about finding the best plan to acquire my degree, not how and when can I pay. They make you feel so at home and I LOVE how attentive they are. I 100% recommend!

Graduate Student

RUN!!! I do not recommend this program to any prospective graduate students for Clinical Mental Health Counseling in their Online Program. There are a million and one problems with the classes, billing, IT, financial aid, etc. Yes it's flexible but it's also a freaking unorganized nightmare. Don't do it! Maybe their other programs are ok but not their CMHC online grad program. Although since there's problems with business portions of billing, IT, and financial aid I have my doubts.
