The Exceptional Students & Elementary Education (ESEE) program stands out as one of the few genuinely integrated elementary and special education programs nationwide. This cohort-based approach enables students to complete their bachelor's degree while obtaining dual teaching certifications for elementary education, serving as the culminating two years of their education degree. The program equips future educators to teach both neurotypical students and those with disabilities across kindergarten to 6th grade (K-6) environments, including general, inclusive, and special education classrooms.
This groundbreaking ESEE program weaves together key educational frameworks like Culturally Responsive Teaching, Co-Teaching, Universal Design for Learning (UDL), Response to Intervention (RtI), Instructional Technology, High Leverage Practices (HLPs), and Data-Driven Decision Making throughout its curriculum. Recognized for excellence, the ESEE program holds a position among College Choice's top 25 special education degree programs in the country

To be considered for admission, you must have completed or are in the process of completing secondary school with a cumulative or overall grade point average (GPA) that is comparable to a US grade of B (3.00 on a 4.00 scale) or higher. The Admissions Committee will also be looking at the grades/marks you have received for Mathematics and Science courses.
All official transcripts, examination certifications (e.g., General Certificate of Education) and other documents showing all high school and any completed post-secondary work must be submitted to the Office of Admissions. All official transcripts must be mailed directly by the institution or Ministry of Education to the Office of Admissions. Documents mailed or hand carried by you or anyone else will not be accepted as official or used for admission consideration.
Secondary school transcripts must include a list of courses taken and grades/internal marks received each year, class rank for the last four years of secondary school, and an explanation of the school's grading system. If transcripts with annual internal marks are unavailable directly from the school, you may photocopy your mark sheets or grade reports and have them certified by a school official who verifies that a transcript is otherwise not available.
