Enrollment Process and Information for
Content Courses for Elementary Endorsement
Step 1: Determine which course(s) you need to enroll in to meet the content
requirements of the elementary endorsement. This can be done as a
self-assessment process by going through the elementary endorsement content review form and
identifying previous course work or life experiences that have provided you
with content knowledge for the elementary endorsement. The elementary
endorsement form provides detailed directions and outlines the content areas
for which you must document coursework.
Information
sessions can assist you with this determination. If you have any questions, please call the MIT office at 206-296-5759. You may also email Ron Boucher, new applicant advisor,
for assistance.

Step 2: Review the following
information before beginning any of the courses:
· The courses are offered as Seattle University continuing
education credits. These continuing education credits cannot be transferred
into undergraduate or graduate programs. However because we are able to offer
them as continuing education credits, the cost is significantly lower than other
college credit-- $110 per credit (each course is one credit).
· These courses are only for elementary education applicants
to the Master In Teaching Program at Seattle University (expect to take 30-40 hours to complete each one credit course).
· The courses are designed for independent learners who do
not need ongoing support. Carefully review the syllabus before determining if you are able to meet the course requirements independently. If
not, then it is recommended that you enroll in an undergraduate course at a
community or four-year college.
Step
3:
- Download the course
syllabus and begin.
- You will enroll and pay for the course when you have
completed all the course requirements for grading.
- This coursework must be completed no
later than August 10th (of your entry year, post first quarter for the Spring cohort and pre first quarter for the Fall cohort). You are encouraged to complete the courses earlier as
often students underestimate the amount of time a particular course will take
to complete.
Step
4:
After
completing all of the course requirements for grading, you may either download the registration form, or contact the MIT Program
Administrative Assistant at 206-296-5759 to request a registration form be sent to you.
Complete the form and include payment of $110. Payment options are listed on
the registration form. Make a copy of your registration form for your records and then submit the form, payment, and all course
assignments for grading at one time. If you are taking more than one course,
submit a separate packet for each course: registration form, payment and all
course requirements for grading. Packets with registration form, payment, and
course assignments can be mailed to:
Administrative Assistant
Master In
Teaching Program
Seattle University
901 12th Ave.
P.O. Box 222000
Seattle,
WA 98122-1090.
These
materials also can be hand-delivered to the College of Education, Loyola Hall,
Room 304. Be sure to include a stamped, self-addressed envelope for returning
the assignments.
