7. New due date for 2017-2018 November 1, 2017
Why?
We have increasing numbers of sophomores who are missing the due date for applying to the program, causing them to have to declare an alternate major in February and then having to apply to change majors to Elementary Education or the new Secondary Education major.
Make sure you have your exam requirements met over the summer – that means making very sure you know your SAT or ACT scores and taking the CASA well before returning to campus in September. Many students require retakes of one of more subtests and those can only be scheduled after a 30 day wait period.
Save time, save money – study and prepare for the CASA exam!!
