Graduate Education Entrance Requirements
Certified PK-12 teachers will meet the entrance requirements as delineated below. Admission is competitive, and space is limited. - Interested students should apply early. Degree Program Admission is based on the following criteria:
Transfer Credits
At the discretion of the program director, up to two successfully completed, applicable courses may be transferred into Graduation Education programs. For a course to be transferred to the degree program, a student must have earned a grade of 3.0 or higher on a 4.0 scale and the goals, outcomes and assessment results must be similar to that of the course being fulfilled through transfer credit.
Provisional Status
Provisional status allows a student to enroll in graduate classes in order to qualify for admission to the degree program. A student may be granted provisional status by the program director after a plan of action is developed which will assist the student to meet the entrance requirements of the program.
If a student is granted provisional status, the student must first satisfactorily complete the educational plan approved by the program director with a GPA of 3.0 or higher before being officially admitted to the program.
Graduate Education Programs Graduation Requirements
The successful Graduate Education candidate will complete 10 course credits, which includes a Master’s Project, while maintaining a cumulative grade point average of 3.0 or higher. Graduate course credit will be awarded only for earned grades of C or better.
An electronic portfolio of course materials is required at the completion at the M.Ed., MSE, or MET Program. (Not required for ITS Certification only.)
