Non-Degree Information for General Applicants, and Potential Master's/Ed.S. Applicants

The Department does offer non-degree registration for select courses. The non-degree applicant can take up to 18 credits before acceptance to the Master's program at ´óÏó´«Ã½. Only 6 credits from another institution can apply (must be less than 7 years old; if applicable, this would reduce the number ofÌýcredits accepted from ´óÏó´«Ã½ to 12).

Non-degree applicants considering eventually applying to the Ed.S. program can take up to 9 credits beforeÌýseeking admission to the Ed.S.Ìýprogram at ´óÏó´«Ã½. Only 3 credits from another institution can apply (must be less than 7 years old; if applicable, this would reduce the number of credits accepted from ´óÏó´«Ã½ to 6). The aforementioned credits may be applied to the degree-seekingÌýprogram upon the student's admittance.
