Elementary and Special Education B.S.Ed. Dual Certification Track

The Georgia Southern University Office of Undergraduate Admissions oversees the application process for undergraduate students. During the admission process, ALL students interested in either the single certification or dual certification program must declare the Elementary Education B.S. Ed. Professional Studies (Non Certification Track) as their intended major.  When accepted to the university, ALL undergraduate education majors are admitted into the Elementary Education B.S.Ed. Professional Studies (Non Certification Track) program. For university admission information, please visit the Georgia Southern University Admissions website.

At the completion of all courses, through area F in the program of study, students seeking initial teacher certification would then apply to the Teacher Education Program. (See admission requirements for admission into the Teacher Education Program). If accepted into the Teacher Education Program, the student would move into the Elementary Education B.S.Ed. Certification program in the single certification. For entry into the Dual Certification-Elementary and Special Education B.S.Ed. Certification track, please contact your designated advisor for entry requirements. Those students who are NOT seeking initial teacher certification, would complete the remainder of the program requirements for the Elementary Education B.S.Ed. Professional Studies (Non-Certification Track) program.
