Qualifications for Admission

To be considered for admission, applicants must:

• Hold a valid CT Provisional or Professional Educator teaching certificate
• Be employed by a CT PreK-12 school or school district during the program of study

Applicants will be asked to verify their certification and employment status during the application process.

How to Apply

Complete the online application at the link below. In addition, you must upload the following documents electronically (PDF preferred):

• A copy of your CT teaching certification
• Current résumé (listing all teaching experiences)
• A letter of reference from your current principal/administrator specifically supporting your participation in the program*

*The purpose of this letter is to ensure that applicants possess the necessary competencies to succeed in the program and are able to complete practicum/field experience requirements within their school/district setting. Applicants are encouraged to share program requirements with their principal/administrator that may result in the need for participants to request release time from their current teaching position. If you are working or will be working under a Durational Shortage Area Permit (DSAP), the letter should attest to that.

Application Fee

A non-refundable application fee of $75.00 is required to process your application. You will be asked to provide payment via credit card upon submitting your application.

Interview

• To ensure that applicants fully understand program requirements and expectations
• To identify additional supports needed for the applicant to succeed in the program
