When applying for admission for continuing certification, you will use a graduate application form. You need to choose the appropriate admission category from the following:
- Degree (master’s, specialist, etc.)
- Professional teacher certification (taking classes to earn your professional certificate), or
- Teacher endorsement (only adding an endorsement).
If you are unsure of your interests, simply apply as a graduate "non-degree" student. Do not use the undergraduate application to take classes for continuing certification.
Information about admission, including the application form and other required documents, can be found at www.emich.edu/admissions/. The Office of Admissions is in 401 Pierce Hall and can be reached at 1.800.GO.TO.EMU.
EMU has four academic terms:
- Fall (September – December)
- Winter (January – April)
- Spring (May – June)
- Summer (Late June – August)
Although it is not a requirement, it is in your best interest to send materials at least two months before you wish to register for classes. Registration for Spring, Summer and Fall semesters begins in April. Registration for Winter semester begins in November. |
