When are classes?
Our program is arranged in a cohort structure with a new group of students admitted each fall semester. Each cohort meets on Tuesdays and Thursdays during the fall and spring semesters.
Many courses embrace a hybrid format with online and face-to-face meetings alternating over the course of a semester.
Summer terms call for concentrated meeting periods to allow educators to include vacation time in their calendars.
What are the admission requirements?
All applicants must provide evidence that they possess the intellectual, professional and social qualities necessary for successful completion of the program requirements.
- Master’s degree from a regionally accredited college or university
- GPA of 3.2 or higher on a 4.0 for your master's work
- Two (2) years of experience as a teacher or administrator (with teaching experience) in a public, private or higher education setting
