Section 681.2.37. Teaching curricula.
-
Application for approval in a teacher education program may be filed after a student has earned at least 24 semester hours credit. The student must pass such tests and meet such other standards as may be prescribed by a teacher education committee. For full approval, a student must have at least a 2.20 grade index at this college. The committee may grant provisional approval for students in exceptional cases, but may not grant full approval until all standards have been met. Normally a student will be expected to meet full approval by the beginning of the junior year if the student wishes to complete requirements in the minimum time. Transfer students cannot earn full approval before the end of the first semester enrolled at University of Northern Iowa.
A student may, at the time of admission to the college, declare an intent to enter a teaching program and be assigned a teacher adviser from the student’s first enrollment. The college must give special consideration to scholarship, health, character, personality, and quality of potential leadership of an applicant for a teaching curriculum.
