Description
This program prepares students for transfer into a bachelor's degree program in secondary
education at a four-year college or university. The program covers the first two years
of instruction, including the general education courses, used by most secondary education
programs in Michigan, which prepare students for the state-mandated basic skills tests.
Requirements may vary among colleges. Students should obtain the current curriculum
from the college to which they are transferring and talk to an undergraduate advisor
early in their studies. Curriculum and admission requirements are available on most
colleges' Web sites.

Continuing Eligibility
Admission requirements for bachelor's degree teacher education programs may vary
among colleges. Most require a minimum grade point average of 2.0 for courses to transfer
as well as a minimum of 56 to 60 college credits completed and successful completion
of the state-mandated basic skills test before applying for admission to the program.
