Career and Technical Teacher Education PRF

First-time students may enter if they meet general college criteria for admission.

Transfer students may transfer from a City Tech associate program before or after completing the associate degree, or from other colleges.

All transfer students have their transcripts evaluated to determine their appropriate placement in the program. A minimum grade point average of 3.0 is generally required for transfer students; applicants with grade point averages above 2.5 may be considered.

To be admitted to teacher education, all applicants must complete a department application and be interviewed by program faculty to determine their eligibility for state certification and potential for success in the program.

Students must receive a grade of B or higher in each course taken with an EDU prefix. Any student earning a grade lower than B in an EDU course may not progress in the program without repeating the course and earning a minimum grade of B or higher.

No course in the program may be repeated more than once without department permission. In the event of failure or a grade of B- or lower after two attempts, the student will be required to change to another major outside the Career & Technology Teacher Education Department.

A minimum grade point average of 2.7 is required both for progression within the Career and Technical Teacher Education curriculum and for enrollment in student internship and student teaching. Students who fall below a 2.7 grade point average are required to arrange a meeting with a Career and Technology Teacher Education Department faculty advisor to discuss plans to improve their academic standing. Students who withdraw will be considered for readmission on an individual basis and only if they withdraw in good standing (passing all courses at time of withdrawal).

A minimum grade point average of 2.7 is required for graduation.
