This track is designed for students pursuing a career in teaching in public or private schools. Coursework focuses on content preparation for the subject matter competency and pedagogy in teacher education. The program includes student teaching experiences.<\/p>\n<p>The Integrated Teacher Preparation program requires a 2.75 GPA for admission with a minimum 3.0 required for credential courses, a writing assessment, and a face-to-face interview with the program chair or designee. It is recommended that students be fully matriculated into the program by the end of the fall semester of their freshman year. Semester advising appointments are required throughout the four years to monitor progress according to the requirements of the accelerated GPA and portfolio requirements. Students who do not progress according to the requirements of the accelerated program may be counseled into the traditional BA Elementary Education program.<\/p>\n<p>Upon successful completion of the second year of the Integrated Teacher Preparation program, students will interview with the Director of the Teacher Education program or designee for authorization to advance to prerequisites for the credential portion of the program. Advancement will be determined by an interview, current GPA (minimum 3.0 required) and recommendation from the B.A program chair. All Integrated Teacher Preparation students must obtain cleared fingerprints. <em>Applicable fees apply<\/em>. A record of current immunizations must be on file.<\/p>\n<p>For Prerequisites, Admission Requirements, and Undergraduate (BA) Graduation Requirements, see the Elementary Education section in the Undergraduate Studies section of this catalog.<\/p>\n<p>Advancement to Candidacy requires the completion of 21 semester hours with a minimum GPA of 3.0, an application for graduation, and the completion of specific assessments required by the College\u2019s assessment system.<\/p>\n  \n\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\n<p>Prior to registering for the first semester of credential classes (EDUC 425 and EDUC 426) Integrated Teacher Preparation students will interview with the Director of the Teacher Education program or designee for authorization to advance to prerequisites for the credential portion of the program. Advancement will be determined by an interview, current GPA (minimum 3.0 required), and recommendation from the BA program chair.
