International Applicants
NOTE: International applicants (F1 visa) are required to be enrolled in at least 8 units every semester, and must take at least 6 units of coursework with an in-person or hybrid modality. This program is fully online and does not meet this requirement. We would like to encourage you to consider applying to one of our CSULB College of Education graduate programs that has in-person or hybrid classes, as that this program will not meet the requirements for a student visa.
- CSULB Cal State Apply Application Deadline for International Applicants: March 15, 2025
In addition to the requirements for international applicants, please also be sure to submit the required Program Materials in MyCED:
- Documents – statement of purpose, resume, copy of teaching credential (if held)
