02/05/2025 CK prepares proposal following NYSED September 2024 outreach re: adding Diagnostic Privilege to eligible programs
02/21/2025 CK finalizes proposal for submission, TW submits to NYSED: Dear Colleagues, Please find attached a program change proposal from New York University for MA Counseling For Mental Health & Wellness (program code 28270) and its related dual degree MA Counseling For Mental Health & Wellness/Adv Cert LGBT Hlth, Education And Social Services (program code 37151). Please note that this change proposal is in response to NYSED's February 23, 2024 memo "Regulations of the Commissioner of Education Relating to Mental Health Practitioners’ Diagnostic Privilege," attached for reference. NYU previously responded to an August 28, 2024 request for Attachment B - Content Chart for the Diagnostic Privilege, which we have also included in this proposal submission. We look forward to hearing from you. Regards, Titilayo
03/06/2025 NYSED responds with feedback, TW confirms receipt: Hello Titilayo, How are you? I am currently reviewing the request to be granted the MHC-D designation for NYU. Some of the courses submitted to meet this requirement are marked as electives, which would not allow this program to receive that MCH-D designation. Additionally could syllabi of these courses be provided for review? Best, Rebecca Rebecca Sanborn, M.A. T. Assistant in Professional Education Professional Education Program Review (PEPR) New York State Education Department
03/06/2025 CK shares feedback and guidance on next steps with EDU: Hi Lindsay, We have heard back from NYSED on the proposal to register MA Counseling For Mental Health & Wellness with diagnostic privilege. NYSED has responded that, as some of the coursework that prepares students for diagnostic privilege is elective coursework, they can not register the program as one that leads to diagnostic privilege. Since there could be graduates of the program who do not take those courses, it would not be correct for the program to receive this designation. If you would like the program to be registered with diagnostic privilege, then all of the relevant coursework (the courses listed in the content chart) would need to be required. Let us know if you would like to go that route and we will update the proposal with NYSED (please also send syllabi for all of the diagnostic privilege courses listed in the content chart). If you would like to keep the program as-is, with the current process that program graduates currently go through to be identified as having diagnostic privilege, then we will withdraw the proposal from NYSED. Please let us know how you would like to proceed.
