In addition to the general application and GPA requirements of the UCA Graduate School,

  • Applicants seeking an Arkansas endorsement must hold a valid standard Arkansas educator license.
  • Applicants must complete a Program Recommendation by Administrator Form or a Request for Exception from Administrator Form (if they are not currently employed by a school).
  • Applicants not seeking an endorsement or who do not hold a valid standard Arkansas teaching license, must submit a statement of purpose with their admission application.
  • While individuals not holding a teaching license are eligible for admission into these programs, they will not be eligible for an Arkansas endorsement as the license is an endorsement to an existing Arkansas teaching license in a general education area.
