Admission

Admission to the University does not constitute admission to the Teacher Education Program. Undergraduate students must apply for program admission prior to enrolling in methods classes. All programs utilize the services of a selection committee. The committee is composed of University-wide representatives who make recommendations regarding application to the program. All fifth-year students must apply to and be admitted to the University and the Teacher Education Program to enroll in credential methods courses. The process for obtaining a teaching credential includes the following steps:

1. Application and admission to Cal Poly Pomona.
2. Application and admission to the Teacher Education Program.
3. Application and admission to Directed (student) Teaching.
4. Application for the credential.
