One student from the 2016 cohort changed to part-time and is on track to graduate with the current cohort. U of I received a record number of applications for the current cohort of students and expect to have 19 graduates Spring of 2020. All students are registered to take the Certified Rehabilitation Counselor Exam the Spring of 2020.
