GW Graduate Brain Injury Programs Still Accepting Applications

By Michael Kaplen

The George Washington University (GW) has two excellent programs providing graduate training to serve individuals with traumatic brain injury.
 
I have been privileged to be a guest lecturer for the past several semesters and can attest to the hih quality of the courses offered, the spirit and dedication of the student body and the commitment of the school's administration in improving the quality of life for persons with brain injury.

GW is currently accepting applications for the spring
2009 semester and for summer and fall 2009 semesters.  Although the official admissions deadline has passed for spring, the on-line application process makes it possible to get an application completed in time for consideration if it is submitted right away.

Some very good news is that through several grants from the U.S. Department of Education, GW is able to provide partial (usually 80%) scholarships for eligible US citizens and permanent residents for the following programs:

1.  Graduate Certificate in Brain Injury: Educational and Transition Services.  This is a 15 credit (5 courses) program offered both on-line and at the main campus in Washington D.C. For more information contact Monija Amani or by calling her at 202-973-1032.

2.  A Master?s Degree in Transition Special Education: Emphasis in Acquired Brain Injury. This is a 45-48 credit program, including internships, offered only at the main campus in Washington D.C.  For more information contact Zee Willis or by calling her at 202-973-1082.

You may apply on-line by going to the Graduate School of Education and Human Development (GSEHD) website and then using the Apply Online application process.
