Student Eligibility

The majority of students admitted to the program are sponsored by their school districts in accordance with Center for Educational Leadership agreements. Sponsored students normally receive release time to engage in school district projects that support Center programs, and to engage in practicum and internship experiences in their school districts. A few self-nominated, unsponsored students who meet admissions requirements are also admitted. Students with earned master's degrees in other areas are encouraged to apply for this professional degree program in educational administration. Candidates must complete two years of full-time teaching prior to matriculating in the program.

Students are admitted as a cohort. Study is normally on a half-time basis for five consecutive semesters (two academic years and one summer session). Sponsored students must maintain employment in their school districts. Admissions requirements emphasize strong school district endorsement, a solid record of successful teaching, demonstrated leadership potential, ability to analyze and reflect, and a strong commitment to school improvement. Applicants will be expected to present an undergraduate record and admissions test scores that meet Trinity University requirements.
