MEd Admission Requirements

Applicants to the Master of Education degree program are required to have a 60 credit hour Bachelor of Education degree, or equivalent, with a minimum grade point average of 3.0 (B) and at least the equivalent of one-year of full-time teaching experience. (The completion of these 60 credit hours also presumes a minimal equivalent of 168 credit hours overall when previous degrees’ credits are combined with the applicant’s BEd degree.) Please arrange for official transcripts from each previous post-secondary institution attended to be sent directly to Crandall University from the issuing institution(s).

All applicants to the Master of Education degree program must submit, along with their application, a resume and a cover letter that presents their professional goals and how the completion of the MEd can help meet and achieve these aspirations. Also submitted should be at least two professional reference letters from individuals who can provide input regarding the applicant’s strengths as an educator and why they support the applicant’s decision to complete the MEd degree. Given this information, each application will then be assessed on its own merit by the University’s Graduate Education Admission Committee. For a fall start date, the application deadline is May 30th. For a winter start date, the application deadline is September 30th. Due to limited enrolment, it is recommended to apply early.
