Students seeking institutional recommendation for Arizona administrative

meet the requirements for the Arizona Community College Teaching Certificate

education.
An undergraduate grade-point average of at least 3.00 is required for
admission to full standing in a graduate degree program. However,
applicants with undergraduate grade-point averages of 2.50 to 2.99 may be
admitted on a provisional basis. Standardized test scores also are
required (e.g., GRE, Millers Analogies). Beyond these minimal
requirements, applicants must also meet the specific requirements for all
majors offered in the department. The meeting of standards does not
guarantee admission.
