Students who are admitted to one of the graduate degree programs, but do not attend for a period of two consecutive semesters, must reapply for admission. Upon readmission, the student will be subject to all admission requirements in effect at that time.

Admission to Graduate Degrees
It is the responsibility of each applicant to follow the application procedures completely and correctly and to be certain that all materials have been submitted to the Coordinator of Graduate Studies in the Office of the Dean of the College of Education. Incomplete applications cannot be processed. Admission is for entry into a specific program of study. A student who is admitted for one major may enter a different major only if, and after, formal approval of an application for a different major in which the applicant meets all College of Education, departmental, and program requirements and prerequisites. Students wishing to change the major should file an application with the Coordinator of Graduate Studies in the Office of the Dean for the College of Education.

Admission Requirements to Master Degree Programs
The following minimum admission criteria apply to all masters of education programs in the College of Education. In some fields of study, additional requirements may apply. Students should check with the appropriate department to determine these special requirements.

1. An undergraduate degree from an accredited college or university in the proposed field of study or a closely related field.
2. A valid teaching certificate or license.
3. A minimum of two years of full-time teaching experience. In secondary English, Mathematics, Social Sciences, and History the student must hold a valid teaching certificate in the proposed field of study.
