Do I need to apply if I'm already accepted?
Yes; admission into the Teacher Education Program (TEP) is a separate process from admission to 澳门葡京网赌送彩金. TEP的录取是有选择性和竞争性的，不保证被录取. All students compete on an equal basis for admission. 在申请进入教师教育计划之前，您必须完成任何先决条件要求. 学生在成功完成课程前的实地体验课程(ES 203)后申请该课程, ES 212, or SPED 205).
How far in advance should I apply?
我们建议你在你想要的入学学期之前至少申请一个完整的学期或更长时间. 你越早申请，你就越有可能注册到你需要的课程. If you apply after our registration period has occurred for the next semester, then your class selection may be limited.
Requirements for admission into TEP
在申请教师教育计划之前，您需要完成CORE或PPST/Praxis I并取得及格分数或在ACT或GRE或SAT中取得及格分数，并参加第一个实地经验课程. A minimum GPA of 2.75 is also required. When passing exam scores or the minimum GPA is not achieved, 你可能需要额外的时间来完成你的学位和认证要求. Due to the competitive nature of the program, 我们建议GPA高于申请项目时要求的最低GPA.
What is the Praxis CORE exam?
Praxis CORE考试是针对数学教育工作者的核心学术技能测试, reading, and writing. It is not required for admission to 澳门葡京网赌送彩金. However, 在完成第一个教师教育课程之前，你必须有通过记录的分数, ES 212, for the secondary programs (grades 6-12 and K-12). 特殊教育和初等/中等教育认证课程要求您在申请每个课程之前通过测试. 如果你的ACT综合成绩达到23分，英语成绩至少达到20分, 20 on Math, and 20 within 10 years of applying to the program, you may not be required to pass the CORE.
What transcripts are required?
您必须提交您所尝试或获得的先前学分的每所学院或大学的正式成绩单. You are not required to submit high school transcripts. The application is available online.
How soon will the certification letter come?
您将在大学录取后大约4周内收到您的信.
Can I receive an evaluation before admission?

Certification Program Option Questions
Does 澳门葡京网赌送彩金 offer alternative certification?
We do not have any certification programs that are strictly evenings only, weekends only, or distance learning at this time. While you may be able to enroll in selected classes in the evening, summers, or online, 大多数课程都是在正常学年的白天开设的. 要了解威斯康星州的其他认证项目，请参见 this section of the Department of Public Instruction's website.
Can a part-time student get certified?
Yes, 你可以在几个学期的兼职基础上学习一些最初的课程. However, during specific semesters (i.e. BLOCK和学生教学)，由于需要在学校环境中获得实地经验，您需要全职上课.
Does 澳门葡京网赌送彩金 offer any "fast-track" programs?
Unfortunately, we do not offer any “fast-track” programs at this time. 你需要注册传统的本科课程，并按照课程的顺序学习.
Can I complete a master's at the same time?
Unfortunately, 我们目前没有一个完整的研究生课程，可以让你同时成为一名合格的教师. There are some courses which have the option of graduate credit.
Do I have to complete any gen-ed's?
Your previous credits will be evaluated against the teacher education requirements. 如果你的成绩单没有显示威斯康星州公共教育部要求的具体通识教育要求, 你可能需要完成一些较低级别的课程(100/200级)，以获得教师认证.
Certification Timing Questions
How long will certification take to complete?
完成教师资格证所需的时间因学生而异. 时间的长短取决于你获得认证所需的学分, based on your previous coursework. 如果你能够全日制注册，你将能够更快地完成课程.
如果你已经完成了你之前学位的科目/专业的课程，你需要2 - 2年半的时间来完成你的课程. 这个时间包括一个学期的全日制学生教学，假设你是全日制学生.
If you have completed a similar minor in a previous degree, 你仍然需要完成威斯康星大学欧克莱尔分校提供的教学认证的一个学科领域的专业. Your minor credits may count towards a major in that subject area, which would reduce the amount of credits you need to take. 为了获得教师资格认证，你最终需要完成一个学科领域的专业.
如果你以前的学位是不相关的(例如:想教英语，但学位是商科).) In general, it may take up to 3-3½ years of full time.
Elementary/Middle education certification
基础教育或MCEA(童年中期到青春期早期)有非常具体的课程要求，使你能够在课堂上教授各种科目. 这意味着甚至一些通识教育课程的要求可能不能被以前的学位所满足. Depending upon previous coursework, 完成初等教育一般需要2-3年的全日制学习. Students with some prior education coursework may be able to finish sooner.
