Yorkville University in New Brunswick has transformed my daughter's academic journey; the dedicated staff and innovative programs have truly ignited her passion for learning.

Online program markets MA in counselling psychology as flexible for working people but it is NOT flexible. Very rigid and arbitrary policies, huge amount of work, and the actual skills component is very small. All responsibility to find clinical placement is on the student. The number of students enrolled totally overwhelms available placements and YU only sets rigid requirements and limits. Course content is actually well-designed but taught online with little student or professor interaction and skills training quite small. For over $40,000 tuition over 2.5 years and approximately 20% chance of completing the degree, it is not a good way forward.

I've heard several businesses recognize Yorkville students as excellent practicum students and employees. In the program I am learning lots, challenged, and I can work while I go to school. Big bonus.

Great online institution that is accredited and professionally recognized from coast to coast. Not the most inexpensive programs around, but is a godsend for people with busy lives and commitments as you can study anywhere and any time and be recognized after.

Stretching the word University. A typical learning centre that only government subsidized students use to get a diploma which makes it look like they've done something special. And they haven't.
