Union Graduate College MS for Teachers of Mathematics and Science Admission Prerequisites

The School of Education admits students on a rolling basis throughout the year. Admission to this degree program is based on evidence of intellectual achievement, motivation, and aptitude for the profession. All teaching students must possess or be a candidate for an undergraduate degree from an accredited college or university before applying for graduate admissions status.

A grade of B (3.0 cumulative index) or better in previous undergraduate and graduate work is generally expected for admission. Before the student begins the intensive summer program s/he must also complete pre-requisite:
  • A minimum of 30 units in the field of certification.
The program is generally designed for those students who have completed the course work for Initial Teaching Certification, grades 7-12, although some students who already hold Initial Certification choose to complete the program to achieve the master's degree necessary for Professional Certification before they teach full-time. The MST degree is designed to focus on the development of academic skills in the area of certification and practical teaching skills. As a result, each cohort of students is composed of a group of prospective teachers with diverse needs and backgrounds.
