Advising
Advising - General Information
All candidates seeking licensure at Colorado State University must meet regularly with a key education adviser. Among many abilities, advisers have the knowledge and skill to:
- answer general and specific questions about licensure and the degree programs,
- plan a course of study and support course substitutions,
- assist the candidate with admission to the Licensure Program,
- share up-to-date information on licensure requirements (admission, student teaching, PLACE© exam, etc.), and
- assist the candidate in utilizing campus resources.
Undergraduate Candidates for Licensure : In some cases, one faculty adviser serves as both the degree and licensure adviser. In other cases, undergraduate candidates will find that they will have a degree adviser as well as a key education adviser. This is dependent upon the licensing/endorsement area.
Post Bachelor Candidates for Licensure : In all but a few cases, post bachelor candidates will have only one adviser assigned to assist him/her with licensure. For those candidates pursuing a master's degree, two advisers may be necessary.
Connect with an Adviser : To connect with an adviser, please review the key education adviser list in the advising links and feel free to also contact the Licensure Office at 970-491-5292 for assistance.
- Connect with an adviser early in your program!
- Stay in touch with that adviser every semester!
