Hi Erwin, you may apply your BA in English degree from SFU to satisfy the academic requirements for the BEd progrma at UBC. The academic requirements for the Secondary program are detailed here: http://www.teach.educ.ubc.ca/stepstoapply/requirements/academic_requirements.html. Please note that academic requirements are dependent on the teaching specialization(s) that you wish to present. It is possible to apply for a Major in English without a second teaching specialization (e.g. a Concentration in another specialization).

Hi. I am a graduate of SFU. Is it possible to use my BA degree in English from SFU to satisfy the application requirements for the teaching program?

Hi Ash, you may certainly apply to the Teacher Updating program after you’ve received the assessment results from the BCCT. Please contact Gary Rupert, Program Coordinator, for more information: http://www.teach.educ.ubc.ca/contact/directory.html. He oversees the program. Details about the Teacher Updating program can be found here: http://www.teach.educ.ubc.ca/updating/index.html.

Hi
I am interested in the PDP program. I went to BC college of teachers and they have told me that I need to apply to the PDP program at either SFU or UBC.
I am wondering if I can apply to the PDP at UBC after the BC college of teachers has done the assessment for me!
Thank you
Ash

Hi, I understand that applications for the 2010 B.ed year do not open till December, but can I begin sending reference letters, transcripts and other information now or should I wait and do all that in December.

I would like to submit a late application for the Secondary program specializing in English. Is there a wait list in the event that an applicant withdraws from the program and a spot becomes available?
