Admission to the Major

Grade point average requirements vary and admission is competitive across several college transfer programs.

  • Admission to teacher licensure programs requires satisfactory scores on PRAXIS I and II upon entering the four-year institution.
  • Minimum Statewide Education program requirements:
    • Minimum 2.5 grade point average on a 4.0 scale.
    • Satisfactory passing scores as established by the State Board of Education (SBE) on PRAXIS I & II, PPST-Reading; PPST-Writing; PPST-Math; or other SBE approved options.
    • Receiving institutions may have additional requirements, prerequisites, and/or proficiencies. Since these vary at receiving institutions, students should review the admission to teacher education requirements for the institution(s) they anticipate attending.
