Welcome

Welcome to the Western Washington University Graduate Program in Rehabilitation Counseling.  Established in 1999, this stimulating and rewarding program is fully accredited by CORE (The Council on Rehabilitation Education).   

Classes are currently held at the program site in Mountlake Terrace, Washington, 20 miles north of Seattle, and 75 miles south of the main campus of Western Washington University, in Bellingham.  The program offers a combination of face-to-face and distance classes.  NOTE:  Beginning Summer 2008, classes will be held on the campus of Everett Community College, about 40 miles north of Seattle.
