General Admission

General admission status is available to students who wish to enroll in education courses for personal or professional development without applying to a degree program.

You may take up to two courses as a general admissions student. Courses taken in general admissions status are not guaranteed to be counted towards a degree program.

Applicants who plan on applying to a degree program are advised to talk to the program coordinator to choose their courses.

Select courses will not be available to you as a general admission student as some courses may have prerequisites or require a permit. Degree students are given priority for those few courses in which enrollment is limited.

General admission students must maintain a 3.0 grade point average

General admission students must submit a new application, application fee and all the supporting documents when applying to a degree program.

Post-Graduate Studies

Alumni who hold degrees from the Graduate School of Education may enroll for courses any term after graduation by filling out Acceptance and New Student Data forms in the Admissions Office

Students interested in post-doctoral work in the Graduate School of Education are invited to apply by letter to the Associate Dean

Because of the diversity of aims in post-doctoral study, there is no prescribed program; each application will be judged individually and all applicants should submit detailed plans for study

Normally those pursuing post-doctoral studies will be registered in the Graduate School of Education as post-doctoral scholars and will be subject to the usual tuition and fee charges of the School
