4All undergraduate student teachers will be required to complete edTPA as part of the requirements for student teaching.

5 Students who have not already done so must complete the English Department’s Theory Intensive Requirement.

6 Students may complete student-teaching in the fall semester if the requirements for student-teaching are met at the beginning of the fall semester.

7Secondary Education/English majors will complete a second major in English. English majors at The University of Scranton are required to take at least three courses in British literature, and at least three courses in American literature. These appear above as “Area Requirements.” For further details, students should see English and Theatre Department  and/or consult their English Department advisors.
