PLAN YOUR PATH
Preparation, time and schedule
Before you apply
Review university admission and the separate professional teacher-preparation application.
Your complete timeline
BA/BS with teacher-preparation sequence. Prior credits, prerequisite placement and course availability can change your personal completion date.
180 quarter credits minimum for the bachelor's degree. Major, general education and residency requirements must also be completed; a major's credit total alone is not the whole degree. Official degree requirements ↗ · Checked September 16, 2026
Plan around the schedule
Campus-based; confirm the current timetable. Ask for the actual days, start times and required travel from Ashland. Online coursework does not necessarily make laboratories or placements remote.
Application and selection
Use the official Education Studies page to review the current entry checklist. Ask whether a separate department application, selection process or cohort start applies before committing to enrollment.

Questions to take to an advisor
Which preparation, timetable and complete budget apply to my Education Studies plan?
- Which required courses or placements are offered only once per year?
- Can you give me a written estimate covering every required term and practical expense?
- Which employment, transfer or licensing requirements remain after this award?
Published program length is not a personal completion estimate. Transfer credits, prerequisites, selection and course availability can change the timeline.
After the program
An approved preparation route, supervised teaching and current Oregon licensing requirements are necessary. Confirm the grade-level endorsement supported by your plan.
