University to Schools for Graduates MEd Admissions

Admissions

To be considered for acceptance to the University to Schools for Graduates pathway, candidates will need to have met all subject matter requirements. Many of these requirements can be satisfied through completing an undergraduate degree in the subject they wish to teach. However, there may be additional course requirements not satisfied by the major or degree; to complete these additional requirements, students are expected to meet with a subject matter advisor for further consultation. See individual subject matter pages ("Be a __ Teacher") for details. 

The MTEL Communication and Literacy Skills test must be passed by the end of the first semester in the graduate program, but is not required for application to the program. The MTEL Subject Matter Test must be passed before enrollment in the practicum. 

Application Timeline

December 1 is the formal deadline for application. However, late applicants will be considered until the cohort is full.
