Northwestern University Graduate Program in Genetic Counseling, founded in 1990 by Beth Fine and Dr. Eugene Pergament, is fully accredited by the American Board of Genetic Counseling (ABGC). It is located in the Feinberg School of Medicine at the Chicago Downtown Campus. The program enrolls approximately 20 students per year and is 18 months long. Students are enrolled for six ten-week quarters; three academic quarters their first year (Fall, Winter, Spring), one summer quarter, and two academic quarters their second year (Fall and Winter). Students graduate in mid-March, which is earlier than many other genetic counseling programs. Many of our students feel that this early graduation date gives them a jump start on the job search and a competitive edge over other graduates.
