If you choose to pursue a Post-Baccalaureate licensure program, you should be aware of the following:
1. ADMISSION TO THE COLLEGE OF EDUCATION AND HUMAN SERVICES. Prospective students should
apply through Undergraduate Admissions as a Post-Baccalaureate in Education and Human Services.
Admission to the College requires an earned bachelor’s degree with a grade point average of 2.50 or higher
(4 point scale).
2. ADMISSION TO LICENSURE PROGRAM. Admission to the University or College of Education and
Human Services DOES NOT AUTOMATICALLY CONSTITUTE ADMISSION TO ONE OF THE
TEACHING LICENSURE PROGRAMS OFFERED BY THE COLLEGE. All students are required to meet
certain standards and requirements of the College to be fully accepted into a licensure program and
prior to registering for professional coursework in education beyond EDB 200 (Teaching as a
Profession). These standards and requirements are:
1. A cumulative grade point average of 2.50 or higher (4 point scale) for an earned Bachelor’s degree. If
this requirement has not been met at the time of the intake interview (see below), you will not be eligible
for acceptance into teaching licensure at that time. You will, however, be able to qualify for admission by
achieving a grade point average of 2.50 or higher for at least 12 credits taken at CSU and then returning
to complete the intake interview process.
2. Completion of an intake interview with an advisor in the College Advising Office, Julka Hall, Room 170,
or in the case of Physical Education, with the coordinator of Undergraduate Student Services in Julka
Hall, Room 164. Submission of “unofficial” transcripts from all previous colleges attended is required at
the time of this interview. During the intake interview, a College Advisor will evaluate your transcripts,
discuss program requirements, and complete a program checklist for you. You will also be required to
sign a Verification of Good Moral Character form at the time of your interview. You can contact the
College Advising Office at (216) 687-4625 to schedule an intake interview or to find out about group
information meetings that are held throughout the semester. For physical education students, please
call the HPERD department at (216) 687-4870 to schedule an interview.
3. CONTINUING GRADE POINT AVERAGE REQUIREMENT. A CSU GRADE POINT AVERAGE OF AT
LEAST 2.50 IS REQUIRED FOR CONTINUING ENROLLMENT IN PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION
COURSEWORK.
4. REQUIREMENTS FOR PRACTICUM, STUDENT TEACHING, AND ENDORSEMENT FOR A TEACHING
LICENSE. Eligibility for practicum, student teaching, and endorsement depends on an overall grade point
average of 2.50 or higher, plus a professional education coursework grade point average of 2.75 or higher,
plus a major field grade point average of 2.50 or higher for those students in multi-age, middle school, and
adolescent/young adult programs. Students must take all the required Praxis II exams prior to enrollment in
student teaching.
