We review all applications holistically so an applicant who does not perfectly meet all of the listed requirements may receive what’s called conditional admission. Conditional admission means that the applicant must remedy the shortcoming within a defined period of time or they must leave the program. Also, be aware that background checks are required as part of the journey to becoming a teacher.
