Candidates must have a bachelor’s degree or higher from an accredited institution, with a minimum GPA of 3.0. (Upon the recommendation of the director of Student Support Services, candidates whose GPA is less than 3.0 may be admitted on a conditional basis, provided that it is determined that the candidate has the necessary knowledge and skills to complete the program successfully.) Candidates must have majored in the subject to be taught (or have enough appropriate credits in the subject). All candidates must meet additional liberal arts and sciences course requirements mandated by New York State, including six semester hours in each of the following subject areas: mathematics, English language arts, social studies, and science. We require the GRE-Graduate Record Examination--General Test. Performance on the GRE will not outweigh the other required criteria in your application. In addition to the required New York State Certification Examinations, candidates in this program will be required to take a Content Specialty Test (CST) in Teaching Students with Disabilities and a CST Multi-subject Test (7-12).
