Policy Issued June 14, 2006

 

Admission of Ontario Three-Year Baccalaureate Degree Holders to

M.A. in Curriculum and Instruction

 

 

Many Ontario teachers have completed the three-year baccalaureate degree, rather than the four-year honors degree or B.S. degree.  Graduates of a three-year baccalaureate program are admissible to the Master of Arts in curriculum and Instruction if they have (1) completed a fourth year of teacher’s college and (2) are recommended for admission by the Admissions Committee.

 

The Admissions Committee shall be appointed by the Vice President for Academic Affairs with representatives from (1) the School of Education , (2) the Admissions Office, and (3) the Registrar or Assistant to the Provost for Academic Records.  The Admissions Committee shall consider recommendations, teaching experience, grade point average and test scores, other qualifications, and potential for successful completion of the program in making its recommendation for admission of the applicant.

 

This policy has been recommended by the School of Education and approved by the Provost’s Council.
