Full Admission

Candidates must hold Initial Admission and apply for Full Admission according to the dates published by the School of Education office. Full Admission must be achieved prior to enrolment in Year 3 of the 4-Year program. This process includes an interview (Full Admission Interview) with two faculty members from the School of Education. During the interview, all candidate records, goals, dispositions, and professional expectations will be reviewed.

Candidates must submit the following documents at the School of Education office prior to scheduling an appointment for the Full Admission Interview:

1. A current resumé.

   For Secondary Track: Work with the School of Education office to request completion of a Content Area Feedback Form from both of the departments offering the candidate's Specialization and Minor.

   These forms are confidential, and must be returned in a sealed envelope to the office.

4. Security Clearance Certificate from candidate's home jurisdiction (this should have been submitted in advance; verify submission).
