Julissa Marcano MA '19
Why did you choose to pursue your graduate degree at Marist?
The cohorts are small and this is important because it gives me the opportunity to establish relationships with faculty and candidates. The faculty is another reason why I chose Marist. Most of the professors have past experience as working school psychologists where they relate the real experience to what we are learning in class. They also have a passion for school psychology and bettering the lives of children as a whole, which make learning exciting. The professors are involved and willing to help and work on research projects that further our professional development.
