Answers to a few FAQs:

-The new program will require the same admission requirements as the M.Ed: School Leadership/Principal Licensure Concentration.

-The program requires 36 credsits beyond the masters degree.

-Most courses will be offered as a 'hybrid', meeting face-to-face about once a month (usually Wednesdays, 5-9PM) and on-line. Due to the compacted time schedule for summer courses, they will meet more frequently but still be hybrid in design.
