A student that tests into MAT14+ or lower must take MAT115 (College Algebra Prep) or MAT12+ (Intermediate Algebra) as well as MAT14+ prior to MAT256. Students that test into MAT15+ (College Algebra/Functions) can meet MAT256 prerequisites by taking MAT15+ or MAT14+.\nArizona state teaching certification requirements include courses on the constitutions of the United States and Arizona. Taking GCU/POS113 (United States and Arizona Social Studies) for [SB] fulfills this requirement completely. Students who instead take HIS103 (United States History to 1865) or POS110 (American National Government) for [SB] should consider taking POS221 (Arizona Constitution) as a Content Area Elective so they have completed study of both constitutions. POS220 (U.S. and Arizona Constitution) meets state certification requirements for both constitutions but does not meet [SB].\nAs indicated in their course notes, students will be required to complete field experiences in K-12 classrooms in select courses. Field experiences are only available during the traditional K-12 public school calendars.\nPrior to taking upper-division (300 and 400 level) coursework, students must complete or provide proof of the following:\n1. Formal application is required to begin upper-division coursework.\n2. Completion of Associate in Arts, Elementary Education (AAEE) OR coursework equivalent to requirements of Arizona General Education Curriculum (AGEC), MAT256, MAT257, EDU221, and (EED222 or EDU222).\n3. Completion of the Arizona Constitution and United States Constitution course(s). Refer to the program notes for details.\n4. Minimum 2.50 cumulative grade point average (GPA). Refer to the program notes for details.\n5. Valid Identity Verified Prints (IVP) Fingerprint Clearance Card.\n6. Names of two professional or academic references (evaluation forms will be provided to the references directly as a part of the application).\n7. Passing score on the Arizona Educator Proficiency Assessments (AEPA), Elementary Subtest 1 and 2.\nEnrollment into Upper-Division Coursework (300-400):\nTeacher candidates are encouraged to apply to enroll in the upper-division (300 and 400 level) coursework if they are within fifteen (15) credits of completing lower-division requirements and/or have yet to achieve a passing score on the Arizona Educator Proficiency Assessments (AEPA)/NES Elementary Subtest 1 and 2 (candidates must have attempted the AEPA/NES Elementary Subtest 1 and 2.)\nIf a student was dismissed from any program for issues relating to academic integrity and/or professional responsibility and ethical standards, the Program reserves the right to deny enrollment or re-enrollment for the upper-division (300 and 400 level) coursework.\nLicensing Disclosures:\nThe Bachelor of Arts in Elementary Education and Special Education degree is designed to meet the coursework requirements for a certified elementary education, K-8 teacher and special education in mild/moderate disabilities, K-12 teacher in the State of Arizona. This degree is not available for students residing outside the state of Arizona."}}
