Add-on Licensure Programs
The Programs
Add-on licensure programs prepare teachers to obtain an Academically/Intellectually Gifted (K-12) or Elementary Education (K-6) add-on licensure to their North Carolina teaching license. These are not degree programs. The candidates complete 12 graduate semester hours of course-work (4 courses) through the M.Ed. program during the course of an academic year and one additional summer session. At the end of this 4-course sequence, completers are eligible to be recommended by the School of Education for additional licensure in North Carolina.
Costs
The total cost of the add-on licensure for academic year 2016-2017 is $3,108. The cost is broken down per course, for a total of $777 each semester.
