Metaphysical Schools - Look Before You Leap!

First, let me just say that not all metaphysical schools are bad. It is easy for one to get that impression when you see metaphysical colleges popping up all over the place. There are some reputable colleges that are out there however.

Some metaphysical colleges are accredited while others are not. Of course, the accreditation may not mean much unless it is from a nationally recognized accrediting association. This can be important when it comes to receiving grants or loans for your education.

Look to see how long the college has been established. Is it a college that's been in business for several years or decades? Or is it a newly established college? You may be wondering why this is important. Well, while it's not going to tell you for sure whether or not this college is worth your time to look into, a college that's been around for a long time has had more time to build either a favorable or unfavorable reputation.

Search the internet to see what others might be saying about the college you are interested in. Just don't fall into the trap of believing someone who gives it a negative review, unless you are seeing many others giving it the same review. Sometimes students can become upset or angry and take it out on the school when it has nothing to do with the school at all.

Accreditation is difficult for metaphysical colleges to obtain from nationally recognized associations, and that's only because of the nature of the education. You'll find this also true with many colleges that teach various forms of religion.

One of the most important things to know when you are selecting a metaphysical college is what YOU are looking to get out of it.

Are you:

Trying to further your own metaphysical knowledge?
Looking to work with a unity church?
Looking to work at a metaphysical bookstore?
Desiring to write a metaphysical oriented book?
Looking to start your own metaphysical private practice?

These are just some areas where obtaining a metaphysical degree can help. Just do not expect recruiters to come knocking on your door once you notify them that you have a Doctor degree in metaphysics. This type of degree does not work that way.
