Students must comply with the admissions requirements established
by the Farquhar College of Arts and Sciences and the Fischler School of Education & Human Services. On admission, students
declare themselves as intended education majors.
Students must earn a grade of C or better in COMP 1500, COMP 2000, MATH 1040 and MATH 1050.
Students must earn a cumulative GPA of 2.5 prior to matriculation
into an education major.
Students must submit documentation that the testing requirement
(CLAST, General Knowledge, or equivalent sections of PRAXIS) have been passed before registration for any Benchmark
II education course.
Each semester, the Undergraduate Teacher Education Program reviews the academic transcripts of all students identified as intended education majors. Upon meeting the conditions of matriculation into the Undergraduate Teacher Education Program, students will become declared education majors and will receive a letter of notification once they register for their first education course indicating their matriculation status. It is the student's responsibility to work with their academic advisor to meet the matriculation requirements before registering for any Benchmark II courses.
The Dean of Undergraduate Teacher Education or Director of Enrollment and Recruitment will hear all matriculation appeals. No appeals of the testing requirement will be considered. To file an appeal, please complete a Matriculation Petition located at the above link and submit it to the program office through your academic advisor
