Note: Certificate and MA program students take the same classes, and the entrance exam procedure is the same for both programs. However, the purposes and demands of these programs are different. Certificate Program students gain a solid foundation in the principles and practices of TESOL, as well as the tools to critically reflect on their teaching and make informed decisions in their classrooms. MA Program students build on this foundation by undertaking a wider variety of courses in specialized areas of TESOL and pursuing specific areas of interest in greater depth. An important aim of the MA TESOL Program is for teachers to become self-directed language professionals and leaders in their teaching communities. Upon completion of the Certificate Program, students may be eligible to transfer credits to the MA Program. Please note that transfer from the Certificate to the MA Program requires faculty approval. Transfer decisions will be made based on students’ performance in the Certificate Program and their perceived readiness to undertake further studies in the MA Program.
