The Master of Arts in Teaching-Reading and Language Arts program primarily serves working classroom educators who address literacy development across various age groups. This graduate program equips teachers with strategies to manage diverse classroom sizes, from small groups to larger classes exceeding 40 students. Participants can pursue additional Michigan certifications as Classroom Reading Teachers (BT), Language Arts Instructors (BX), or Reading Specialists (BR) through this program. While all endorsements share a common foundational curriculum, Oakland University can only certify candidates for one specialization per completed course sequence. Each endorsement path has distinct course requirements and elective choices. To obtain state certification, candidates must successfully finish all required coursework and pass Michigan's designated endorsement examination.

Qualification Requirements
Admission to graduate school at Oakland University is selective. In making admission recommendations to Oakland University's Graduate School, each department assesses the potential of applicants for success in the program by examining their undergraduate records, goal statement, letters of recommendation, prerequisite courses, and any other admission requirements established by the academic department.
The department considers only those applicants who hold baccalaureate degrees from regionally-accredited institutions. While an undergraduate grade-point average of at least 3.0 is the minimum standard for admission, other factors bearing on potential academic success are given due consideration.
Oakland University will only accept transcript evaluations completed by a current member of NACES. Most students choose World Educational Services, Educational Credential Evaluators or SpanTran. Graduate programs usually require a course-by-course (or detailed) evaluation report rather than the general evaluation report. Since official transcripts are required for your transcript evaluation.
