Application to the Secondary Credential Program
in English
Students apply to the credential program in the semester
before they plan to enter. For admission for a Fall Semester,
applications are due at the end of February of that year.
For admission to a Spring Semester, applications are due
at the end of September. Application materials are available
at the Office of Admission to Teacher Education in EC 190.
Prior to admission, applicants undergo screening and review
by the English Education Program Committee, a group made
up of CSUF faculty, master teachers of English, and secondary
administrators. Students admitted to the program will then
be assigned student teaching placements in various districts
and schools in the area.
First Semester (Extern Semester)
During the first semester of the program, students typically
work with two master teachers in three English classes
for the full semester. They will be expected to co-teach
with their master teachers in two of the classes beginning
about half way through the semester.
They will also take the English Methods course, ENED 442
and several Secondary Education courses during that semester
(see link for Credential Program Courses.)
Second Semester (Student Teaching Semester)
The second semester of the credential program requires
daily teaching in three classes for the full semester.
Students will also have a preparation period and a conference
period every day at the school where they are assigned,
so they will be at the school for at least five periods
per day. (See Credential Program Courses for the full schedule
during the second semester.)
