STUDENT TEACHING APPLICATION
Teacher education candidates are required to submit a student teaching application one year in advance of the student teaching semester. The information on the application is used by the Office of Teacher Education to place candidates in a student teaching site and finalize field supervisor staffing. Therefore, meeting the application deadline is critical for everyone’s success and a smooth transition into the clinical experience.
Students are required to attend a mandatory meeting at the beginning of the semester in which you are applying for student teaching. The education advisors will notify eligible students of the meeting.
