The Master of Marriage and Family Therapy (MMFT) program has a long-standing history, with its inaugural graduates completing their studies in 1992. A key feature of the MMFT is its strong emphasis on clinical practice. At the heart of the curriculum lies the requirement for each student to complete 500 supervised therapy hours, primarily at the Aurora Family Therapy Centre situated on The University of Winnipeg campus. This clinical orientation is further reinforced by the fact that all faculty members maintain active therapy practices, while all supervisors hold approval status or are pursuing certification with the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy.

Designed with flexibility in mind, the program accommodates part-time students, making it ideal for both working professionals seeking specialization in marriage and family therapy and newcomers to the field who require time to grow as therapists.

Our diverse student population includes individuals from various walks of life, many with previous experience in helping professions. We also welcome those pursuing family therapy as their initial career path, mid-career changers, and retirees fulfilling their aspirations to obtain therapeutic qualifications. Our institution upholds a non-discrimination policy and celebrates diversity in all forms, including ethnic background and sexual orientation. This varied learning environment reflects our multicultural society and enhances the hands-on educational experience for all participants.

Qualification Requirements

Academic transcripts for all previous academic work, whether having graduated from the Institution or just having taken courses there.
For initial assessment purposes, copies of unofficial transcripts (uploaded to your application) are acceptable.
Official transcripts will only be required if you are recommended for admission.
All official transcripts are to be sent directly from the post-secondary institution. If the final transcript does not show that a completed degree has been conferred, an official/notarized copy of your diploma is also required.
Transcripts must arrive in sealed, endorsed envelopes issued by the issuing institution(s) or be received via official electronic delivery from the issuing institution (s) in order to be considered official.
A 4-Year Bachelor degree from a recognized post-secondary institution with an overall GPA of 3.0 is the minimum requirement. An Honours Bachelor degree, or a Master's degree will be considered an asset. Related training (e.g., a Counselling Certificate) is also an asset.

An official TOEFL or IELTS score: If English is not your first/primary language and you are not from an English Exempt Country, you must provide a minimum TOEFL iBT score of 100, with a score of at least 22 on the writing and speaking component, or PBT score of 600. Alternately, a minimum IELTS score of 7.5 based on the Academic Module is required. English language tests older than two years from the date of application will not be considered.
