Can I graduate with dual certification in Special Education and Elementary Education in four years?
Yes! Now before you get too excited, you need to understand that our mandate is to offer coursework so that you can get either one in four years…but the SPED and Elementary Education Programs have worked together so that such an outcome is possible. The typical load per semester is 16-18 credits so it is a heavier academic load to carry. However, the requirements for both endorsements have been dovetailed with the liberal arts requirements of NWU to provide an efficient and well articulated program. Please make sure that you work closely with your advisor to ensure that you take the appropriate courses each semester. With planning, commitment and hard work, dual certification is a possibility within 4 years.
