What counts toward field experience?
To gain admission to the Urban Teacher Program, you need to be able to document at least 40 hours working with diverse youth in an urban setting within the last five years. This can be as a volunteer or employee in a school, classroom or daycare center, at an after-school program, at a community center, a shelter, or a camp, etc. If you have questions about whether some of your prior or planned field experience would be acceptable for admission to the UTP, contact the UTP Field Experience Coordinator, Victor Cole.
