91¶ÌÊÓƵ

Step 1: Application Process Information

Please note that you must have a bachelor's degree from an accredited University and a cumulative GPA of 2.75 or better to apply for this program.

 

PBCT Program Overview

Please plan for at least three months to complete the admissions process.  91¶ÌÊÓƵ requires two weeks before the start of a term to admit students, but we will work with applicants to register as early as possible.

Step 2: Send Transcripts

You must request official transcripts from every institution you have attended to verify degree(s) and coursework. At least one transcript should verify an obtained bachelor's degree. Your transcripts must show that you have a cumulative GPA of 2.75 or higher from all institutions attended. (Students with GPAs below 2.75 will not be considered for the program.)  Note:  Transcripts from 91¶ÌÊÓƵ do not need to be re-submitted for the PBCT Program.

Each institution should mail the transcript directly to the 91¶ÌÊÓƵ 91¶ÌÊÓƵ Office:

91¶ÌÊÓƵ 91¶ÌÊÓƵ Office
3885 West Campus Dr., Dept. 1137
Ogden, UT 84408-1137

You may also deliver an official transcript bearing a registrar’s unbroken seal to our office. A transcript marked "issued to student" is not official. If an institution was attended under a different name, please note the name change on the transcript request form and application.

Step 3: Application, References, and Background Check

If at this point you have not viewed an information session, please do so using the links in step 1.

Application

The $60 application fee is non-refundable and subject to change.

References

When completing the online application, you must provide 3 email addresses of people who have observed your teaching and would be willing to fill out a recommendation form.

If a hard copy of the recommendation form is necessary, please note that recommendation forms need to be sent directly from your references to the Patty Coan (). We cannot accept recommendation forms that are sent from the student. Recommendations may not be from relatives.

Please verify all email addresses are accurate.

 

Background Check

You should begin your background check as soon as possible, but acceptance is not conditional to a completed check.  Admission to the licensing program will be immediately revoked if you have a criminal record or gain one during the program, which has not been cleared by the Utah Professional Practices Advisory Commission.

Step 4: Interview and Secondary Endorsement Courses

Interview

A group interview will be set up for those who have completed all the above application requirements. If you miss the group interview day for any reason, you must wait until the next semester.

Interviews will be scheduled between 4-8 weeks after the application deadline.

The purpose of the group interview is to demonstrate your communication and interpersonal skills. In a group of 6-8 potential licensing candidates, you will answer questions and solve problems with two professors observing. This interview will take approximately 2 hours.

Secondary Endorsement Courses

*Secondary endorsement courses must also be submitted before registration for student teaching, as required by the Utah State Board of Education.
