To be part of the C-SC teacher education program and enroll in your first field experience in the second semester of your sophomore year, you must have successfully completed all four academic sections of the C-BASE exam during your freshman year. Education majors also are required to maintain a 2.75 college grade point average, show a strong academic record, and complete a critical essay.
A high percentage of C-SC graduates pass the C-BASE and the National Teaching Exam (PRAXIS) on their first attempt.
