to include up to five elective courses (not required as part of the B.Ed.
program). The program is designed to facilitate entry into the teaching
profession for those who have completed a Bachelor’s Degree.
Admission to the Program
Details concerning the application process for the consecutive program
are outlined in Application Procedures on page 15.
To be considered for admission to the Consecutive Bachelor of
Education degree program, applicants must hold an acceptable
university degree. If applying to the junior/intermediate division,
applicants are required to present a minimum of 6 courses/18 credits
(progressing in academic rigour) in a teaching subject listed below.
Normally a major or minor will satisfy this requirement. Students
applying to the primary/junior division do not need to have a teaching
subject. Teaching subjects include: .
• Dramatic Arts
• Mathematics
• English
• Music – Instrumental or Vocal
• French
• Religious Education
• Geography
• Science – General*
• Health & Physical Education • Visual Arts
• History
*The Science - General teaching subject must include courses from
three separate science subjects.
To be considered for admission, an applicant must have a minimum
grade point average of 7.00 (B- or 70%) in the last two years of his
or her university program, a cumulative grade point average of 7.00,
satisfy the English Language requirement, and should give evidence of
some experience with elementary-level students in a structured setting.
In addition, applicants must have completed at least one course in
psychology in their undergraduate program. If this has not been
completed, a course in psychology will become an added requirement
during year one of the program. Also, effective 2014 (for students
beginning in September 2014) applicants must have completed one
university-level course in mathematics (either calculus or linear
algebra) or a Grade 12 U or M mathematics course (with a grade

required to take Math 103 (History of Mathematics) during year one.
Eligible applicants will be interviewed by the Admissions Committee
of the Education Department concerning their interest and
qualifications for a career in teaching. Meeting minimum requirements
does not guarantee an interview or admission to the program.
Limitations of facilities, personnel or other considerations may place
restrictions on admission to the Bachelor of Education program.
