Online coursework is not offered during the summer. It is possible to complete the requisite coursework all in the evening and on weekends, but several education courses require you to spend 2-3 hours a week visiting public schools during the day. It is our experience that students who work full time can finish the coursework in two years. Student teaching requires an additional semester. Advisors from the education and ESL licensure will help you design a plan to complete the required coursework.
All coursework is offered in semester credits.
All coursework is at the graduate level. The licensure coursework consists of eight professional education sequence courses, eight ESL courses,and two practica, one at the elementary level and one at the secondary level. Prior coursework will be evaluated for possible equivalencies. A bachelor's degree from a regionally accredited institution of higher education. A cumulative GPA of 2.5 from your bachelor's degree coursework.
