I understand that to be admitted to the program, I must achieve a passing score on the Praxis I test unless I have an ACT composite score of 24 or an SAT total score of 1170 (verbal and quantitative only). I will provide the licensure officer with a copy of my scores or arrange to take the Praxis.

Upon successful completion of all program requirements, I will be recommended by the Department of Education for an initial teacher license that would ultimately be awarded by the state of North Carolina. I understand that in order to obtain a teaching license in any other state, I must complete all requirements set forth by that particular state. These requirements include but are not limited to fingerprinting, background checks, additional testing, and/or extra coursework to meet their legal requirements.

The components of the application process should be completed by April 1st of the student's junior year. Students will be considered for provisional admittance into the program if additional time is required. The final deadline for provisional admittance is August 15th following junior year.
