Requirements vary by program. Most specializations require a bachelor’s degree from an accredited institution, a cumulative GPA of at least 2.75–3.0 (exact minimums vary by program) and a valid, active teaching certificate. The MSE in Educational Leadership additionally requires two years of teaching experience (three for the Arkansas licensure track) and is limited to applicants holding a valid U.S. teaching license working in a U.S. school district.
