Prospective students of George Mason’s MEd in Special Education come from a variety of academic and professional backgrounds.

A bachelor’s degree from an accredited U.S. institution or equivalent and a GPA of 3.0 GPA or higher is required for admission. No testing is required for admission, but test score equivalencies from SAT, ACT, Praxis, etc. may be used to compensate for a slightly lower GPA. All prospective students must adhere to university standards for English proficiency and degree equivalency. Field experience (internship or practicum) is not required; simulations and application activities are built into coursework.
