Important Information for Social Science Single Subject Applicants

IMPORTANT information for Single Subject SOCIAL SCIENCE Program applicants:

[Please read the following notice carefully as I/we receive many inquiries on these questions, so I want to make sure that this is as clear and easy as possible for everyone.]

Subject Matter Competency Waivers: Note that unless you have received a BA from the SJSU Social Science Teacher Preparation Program (or are in the last semester of the program), you will NOT be eligible for a Subject Matter Competency Waiver and will be required to take and pass the CSETs before enrollment into the Social Science Teacher Credential program. 

Application Interviews/Appointments: Please email erica.boas@sjsu.edu to set up an appointment for an interview, Writing Task, and to complete the Subject Matter Competency form. I appreciate your patience as you await a response; I respond as quickly as I can, but this can sometimes take up to a week. If you don't hear back from me after that period, please feel free to email again.

Course Information: If you are beginning coursework and looking for course information including a course code, please be sure to check here under "Course Listings" for the appropriate semester before you begin email inquiries.

If after reading the above you still have questions or wish to make an appointment with me, please do not hesitate to email.
