In elementary and secondary education the student can complete this program at the undergraduate level. Students should contact an advisor at 920-424-1025 or 920-424-3234 for information about licensure. Students wishing to be licensed in Special Education must enroll in the graduate program. Where programs exist, the student should consider the advantages of completing a graduate program to meet the new educational standards. Contact the Graduate School Office, Dempsey 330, 920-424-1223, for information regarding the Special Education programs. Each person seeking licensure in the above context is usually unique and therefore the requirements to be met cannot be listed here. Students seeking licensure at the secondary level should apply for undergraduate admission to the University and furnish official undergraduate transcripts of all collegiate level work. Upon acceptance by the University, an evaluation of transcripts will be done. Students should then request a unit (cr.) check from an advisor in Dempsey 130. When completed, a copy of the unit (cr.) check is sent to the student indicating all requirements to be met. At this point a conference with an advisor in the Academic Advisement Office, Dempsey 130, to plan the student's program is suggested (920-424-1025 or 920-424-3234). For Special Education students, the unit (cr.) check is done by the graduate coordinator in the Special Education Department and all advisement is handled by that department (920-424-3421). For graduate level elementary students, the unit (cr.) check is done by the graduate coordinator in the Curriculum and Instruction Department and all advisement is handled by the department (920-424-2477).
