Undergraduate Student Handbook

STUDENT TEACHING

Students who have completed all prerequisite professional education, specialized preparation courses, and achieved Teacher Candidacy status prior to the student teaching semester will be eligible for student teaching.

Everyone must attend a Student Teaching Information and Registration Meeting at least one full year prior to their student teaching semester. Pay close attention to emails sent from the Office of Clinical Experiences and Candidate Services and signs posted in Recitation Hall announcing the meeting dates and times.

Applications for student teaching should be directed to the Office of Clinical Experience and Candidate Services. Placement of student teachers is the prerogative of the College of Education and the Department of Special Education. Students may not seek to make their own placement agreements with schools or teachers.
