ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS

To apply to this program, applicants must have:

1. NYS teacher certification (If it is initial certification and will expire in the coming year, then applicants must indicate when they plan to get professional certification). If you are finishing a Masters program and will be receiving certification after the application deadline, then contact Dr. Razel Solow (see contact info below).

2. A Masters in Education (We sometimes accept Masters in Literacy and Educational Technology if the applicant has taken a course in human development and in a special population).  Contact Dr. Solow for clarification: rsolow@hunter.cuny.edu/  Ph. 212.650.3599.

If you don't have a Masters yet, you may apply if you have 15 graduate credit hours in education. You must also have the two courses indicated above.

3. Undergraduate GPA = 2.8+

4. Graduate GPA = 3.5+

Matriculation Applicants

To matriculate in the program, the candidate must submit an online application the semester before s/he wishes to enroll. Graduate Admissions requires official undergraduate and graduate transcripts from every college/university that the applicant has ever attended. The transcripts may be mailed or delivered in person to Graduate Admissions in Room 223 North. Apply early in the semester to assure that your supporting documents arrive in time. We cannot review applications without all of the candidate's documents.

 We do NOT accept non-matriculated students.

New deadline for Fall 2011 (only) applications - TBA

NYS certification and official transcripts must be in by that date, too.  Instructions about recommendations are in the online application.

Please note:  

1. No documents should be mailed directly to Dr. Solow, the Program Coordinator, for the matriculation application. All materials must be submitted to Graduate Admissions.
   
   
2. A candidate may submit an unfinished online application multiple times until it is ready for a final submission. By doing so, the candidate is visible to the Program Coordinator who can then keep abreast of the applicant's progress. Please be sure to contact Dr. Solow when you begin your application. See contact info above.
