Thank you for your email and information you provided. Your enquiry has been reviewed. NSRP does not preapprove programs beyond what is noted in its document on acceptable programs (URL provided below). We understand that you have noted the maser’s program is described as a counselling program though courses are coded as psychology courses. The title of the degree is a factor considered, but it would not be an outright prohibition on the NSRP looking further at your application, were you to apply. However what is critical before applying is for the potential applicant to look at all of the other specific NSRP requirements for acceptable degrees in psychology to ensure the listed criteria are met

Before making a decision whether or not to apply, please also review the following document on acceptable programs as it can provide some insight on what the NSRP looks at and finds problematic, when a program is not found to be acceptable.
