Covenant Fellows Program
Graduates of the MEd may enroll in up to six hours per year of MEd graduate courses. Fellows will be charged the appropriate tuition rate with an offsetting Covenant Fellows Grant applied to result in the effective rate of $33 per credit hour charge. These hours may apply toward a second MEd specialization.
If seats are available following registration, MEd graduates may enroll in up to six hours per semester of traditional undergraduate classroom courses at the same effective tuition rate.
Registration for more than two courses per semester and a maximum of 12 hours per year for undergraduate students and/or six hours per year of graduate courses. Registration for May term courses, summer or correspondence courses will be charged at the respective published student tuition rate.
Graduates must pay all other college and course-related fees, purchase texts and other required materials, complete assignments, and take examinations. Covenant Fellows are not eligible for other institutional financial assistance and no refund of tuition is issued from a withdrawal.
Covenant Fellows are encouraged to participate fully in the MEd. Priority in housing is given to degree candidates but is made available to Covenant Fellows whenever possible.
Degree Requirements
A total of 30 semester hours of coursework is required for completion of the Master of Education: 12 hours of core courses and 18 hours within a specialization. The degree must be completed with a minimum cumulative grade point average of 3.0 on a 4.0 scale, and only one course with the grade of C will be applied to graduation requirements. All course work applied toward the degree must be completed within six years of the graduation date.
If a student is unable to complete the degree within the six year limit, application may be made to the Dean of Education to extend the program. If extended, continuation fees apply.
