Program Requirements
A prospective student seeking initial level licensure must already have a baccalaureate degree or be employed as a NC Residency teacher. In order to enroll in the MAT program prospective students must have an overall minimum GPA of 2.7 (3.0 preferred) on 4.0 scale for all undergraduate work or 6-9 credit hours of Professional Development Student coursework that is transferable into the MAT program pending successful completion at a 3.0 or better on a 4.0 scale. Prerequisite concentration course requirements should be completed prior to applying for the “A” level license. Required courses are determined by comparing transcripts of previous college coursework with that of concentration area requirements for the “A” level license. Students may have to take additional undergraduate concentration area coursework or submit passing scores for the North Carolina State Board of Education (NCSBE) required specialty content area examination in order to meet licensure requirements. See advisor or department chair for evaluation of these courses or test requirements. Students are required to remove academic area deficiencies prior to enrollment in the graduate methods courses and clinical experience courses. Applicants must submit three letters of recommendation.
