B.A. in Elementary Education
Elementary Education majors begin their program of study during the spring semester of their sophomore year. Because Elementary Education is a cohort program, it is imperative that interested students declare their intent to become elementary education certification candidates by following the above admission to teacher education procedures before fall registration in the spring of their freshman year.
In addition to this program of study, candidates must also meet the general education requirements outlined under ETHOS.
