I have a graduate degree in an area other than biology, chemistry, earth science, English, foreign language, history, mathematics, or physics. How do I become certified to teach in one of those areas?
If you have fewer than nine credits in the discipline for which you wish to be certified, you will need to apply for a second bachelor’s degree in Adolescence Education and your specific discipline. In highly sequenced degrees (e.g., science, mathematics, and foreign languages) you may not be able to apply for a second bachelor’s degree until prerequisite courses are completed. If your chosen discipline is English, the nine credits in English must be in addition to required courses in English composition.
