I have credits from another institution that I would like to transfer to this program.  How do I know if they will transfer?  Students interested in transferring credits are generally allowed to transfer a maximum of six credits.  Transfer of credits is based on an analysis of the content, level, and comparability of the courses taken, the applicability of the courses to the student’s intended major and degree program, the quality of the student’s performance in the courses, and the accreditation of the institution at which the work was completed.  Coursework must not be older than eight years, and students must have earned at least a C or better.  Transfer decisions are made by the program’s director. 

When would the program begin?  Cohorts usually begin in the fall semester.

What is the average length of time to finish this program? The program can realistically be completed in 16 months.  Classes are scheduled for fall, spring, summer, and the following fall with the option of deferring student teaching until the next spring.
