Our initiatives demonstrate our profound dedication to fostering diversity, equity, and inclusion as we collaborate with students to build a fairer world. Leveraging the knowledge of skilled educators and community allies, we equip future teachers to recognize and nurture the strengths and potential each student brings to their learning environment. We operate with honesty, prioritizing the achievement and welfare of students, families, and communities. As champions of equity, we serve as mentors, partners, and pioneers in teacher preparation. This hands-on program readies you to educate K-12 students with mild to moderate disabilities, blending rigorous academic coursework with extensive practical classroom experience.
This pathway provides a cost-effective route to becoming a special education instructor.
Prospective participants must transfer into this program and may apply during their first or second year at UVA or when transferring from another college.
Candidates should be progressing toward fulfilling the specialized general studies prerequisites for teacher education, which differ from those in the College of Arts and Sciences or the School of Education and Human Development.
While completing all requirements beforehand isn't mandatory, second-year applicants aiming to start in their third year should be close to finishing these prerequisites.
Alumni of this program qualify for automatic acceptance into certain UVA graduate programs for five years following graduation.

Typically, the most important factor in the admission evaluation process is demonstrated academic achievement in a challenging secondary school program.
The admission committee looks for applicants who have completed the most rigorous academic courses available in their secondary schools and recommends that prospective students should exceed minimum high school graduation requirements. We require an official transcript. The secondary program should include no fewer than 16 academic courses and must include the following courses:
English 4 units
Mathematics 4 units
Foreign Language 2 units
Science (from among biology, chemistry, and physics) 2 units (*)
Social Studies 1 unit
A TOEFL or IELTS score should not be more than two years old. Depending on the school, most admitted graduate students attain a minimum total score of 90 on the internet-based (iBT) TOEFL (including sectional minimums of 22 in speaking, 22 in writing, 23 in reading and 23 in listening). The minimum paper-based TOEFL score requirement is usually 600, and the minimum IELTS score requirement is 7.0.
