Philosophically, the program views deaf students from a bilingual perspective. For graduates, that translates into a genuine acceptance of and respect for the language and culture of deaf people, as well as a driving commitment to provide students with experiences that encourage literacy development and academic achievement. Come connect with an energetic community of individuals pursuing teaching credentials for deaf students at elementary or secondary levels, or become a specialist to guide deaf students whose first language is ASL or to aide deaf and hearing students learning ASL as a second language. Program Features: * Provides a bilingual experience in a sizable and diverse community that remains small enough to allow close learning relationships. * Requires and reinforces ASL fluency: All classes are taught in ASL. * Balances full-time faculty with adjunct instructors who draw course content from best practices in the field. * Offers Elementary/Secondary certification for teachers of deaf students, as well as ASL Specialist and Literacy Specialist programs. * Offers convenient schedules to fit your career path: full-time, part-time, or summers-only options. * Expands career and learning opportunities through internships in premier bilingual programs across the United States and Canada.     Accreditation Information:   # Of Credits Required:   Time To Degree:     Previous Degrees Pre-Requisite Courses International Student Requirements Requirements Qualifying Exam: None Required Minimum Exam Score: GPA or Equivalent: 2.5 English Proficiency: Yes Research Competency: Yes Clinical Internship: Yes   Work Experience Volunteer Experience Publications Experience Foreign Language Requirement Satisfy the English Proficiency Essay (EPE) with the required minimum entrance score (3.0) .  Other Requirements Satisfy the American Sign Language Proficiency Interview with the required minimum entrance score.    Cost Per Credit Hour: $   Tuition:   Financial Aid Offered:       # of Students Enrolled Full Time: 166  # of Students Enrolled Part Time: 1760  Average GPA:   Average Test Scores:   Charge Per Credit: $290  Annual Full Time Avg Institution Tuition: $5220  Financial Aid Offered: Yes  Average Work Experience:   Specializations:   # of Terms Per Year: Semester  Placement Percentage:   Historically Black: No   Religious Affiliation: Not applicable
