Caroline Ciesko Headshot

Caroline Ciesko, '25 MAEd

"When I first started looking for a counseling program, I was worried about how I could possibly balance being a mom and a graduate student. Seattle University changed that for me. The flexibility of the program allowed me to learn when I was most focused — often during quiet moments after my kids went to bed — and still be fully present for my family. I never felt like I had to choose between my goals and my life."

"Seattle University will teach and prepare you with counseling skills that can help students, families and communities. My practicum and internship provided me with vast and priceless experiences in school that I was not familiar with during my K-12 education."

Lauren Shea, '25 MIT

"I'm glad I chose the program because the cohort model and the emphasis on educational justice set it apart from other programs. I started the program as an experienced, but uncertified, educator. The program at Seattle University provided that and more. The outstanding professors made me feel supported, encouraged, and connected throughout the program."
