Michael Wavering Program Leader 311 Peabody Hall 479-575-4283 E-mail: wavering@uark.edu Students seeking admission to the Secondary Master of Arts in Teaching Program at the University of Arkansas must be aware of the deadlines and admissions policies. Once all admission requirements are met by each candidate, a committee will review all applications and notify accepted and denied candidates by April 1st. Each of the five content areas (English, foreign languages, mathematics, science and social studies) has a maximum number of 12 students admitted each year and up to 60 students in the overall program. If spaces remain in a particular content area and the overall program capacity has not yet been met by April 1, admissions for that area will be considered on a rolling basis until the beginning of the first summer session. These deadlines and limitations are designed to ensure that all students have a high quality experience and reflect current need for teachers in any particular content area. To apply for admission to the Master of Arts in Teaching program in Secondary Education, you must: 1. Complete an Evaluation for Internship Form by October 1 (http://coehp.uark.edu/4954.htm) 2. File an Application for admission to Graduate School by January 31. 3. Schedule and complete an admission screening interview (early each Spring semester) Note: at the time of the interview, candidates must have a GPA of 3.0 on the last 60 hours of undergraduate coursework, have passed the PRAXIS I exam, submitted three letters of reference, and submitted a portfolio. Additionally, foreign language majors must submit proof of having passed the foreign language proficiency exam. Once we have received all application materials from the Graduate School, an admission decision will be made based on the criteria described in the admissions policy statement. The probationary status will include the content specific courses of the spring semester term. The number admitted into specific teaching fields will be determined by both availability of internship spaces in the public schools with Cohort Partnership agreements and job market potential. However, meeting or exceeding minimum requirements does not guarantee acceptance into the M.A.T. At the completion of the first 6 hours of M.A.T. courses (which are taken in the summer semester), the secondary education faculty will review the status of all the students in the program. Students with unsatisfactory performance (grades of C or lower) in the summer courses will not be allowed to continue with the remainder of the program. Prerequisites to the M.A.T. Degree Program: Admission requirements for the M.A.T. degree program for initial licensure are as follows: 1. Completion of an appropriate undergraduate degree program 2. Cumulative GPA of 3.00 in the last 60 hours of the baccalaureate degree 3. Admission to the Graduate School 4. Admission to the Teacher Education Program. 5. Completion of the pre-education requirements with a minimum of “C” in all courses 6. Completion of all prerequisite courses in teaching field. 7. Payment of internship fee.
