TEACHER EDUCATION
Admission to the Bachelor of Science in Education Program is granted on a space available basis. Applications that meet all admission requirements will be ranked according to their qualifications and admitted in order of their rank, starting with the most qualified, until all available spaces are filled. As such, not all individuals who meet the admission requirements may be admitted. The application process for the fall 2008 junior class is currently open for admission of 60 candidates. However, only a few spaces remain. Review of completed applications will begin as soon as they are received. Since the program of studies involves working in elementary schools, prospective candidates must also consent to a criminal background check. Once admitted to the program, fingerprinting is required prior to field placement. Incomplete applications will not be considered for admission. Also, disciplinary action at Gordon College and any other institution that the student has attended, including the military may prevent admission.
