ADED is a selective program. Our admissions process to Advanced Study (which is essentially the junior- and senior-level courses, including student teaching) takes a holistic approach using test results, G.P.A., and an interview.

For ADED majors, Advanced Study applications are accepted every Spring and Summer. Advanced Study starts every Fall semester. 

Reference forms are available online (follow the links below). Please bring the reference forms with you to your interview, to be held in spring of 2022 (for Spring 2024 graduation).
