Former student stories:
"Yes, I would recommend this program to my colleagues! I have felt supported throughout, classes have been helpful in growing as a literacy teacher, and the professors are understanding and adjust to the needs of their students."
"I absolutely would recommend this program! This is an excellent, comprehensive program that has provided me with a skill set that I really wanted for my work with my students."
"The learning has been AMAZING. But the biggest reason I do recommend this program to people is because the professors care SO MUCH about our success in the program AND as teachers. I honestly don't want to have to be out from under the care of these professors after I graduate. I just feel like I would always be a better teacher if they could always be my guides."
The U.S. News and World Report ranks the College of Education and Human Development's graduate programs top 100 in the nation. The online graduate programs are ranked 63rd in the nation.
“The professors offered their constant support and knowledge to guide me through the program. If I had questions or needed help at any point, they were both ready to provide their expertise and guidance. I am going to continue to use the knowledge that I have gained from my program, so I can be the best teacher I can be for my students.”
