Tips to Make Things Go Easily
Once you are admitted to a program,
an understanding of administrative procedures will make your experience
more enjoyable and positive. The following, therefore, are
tips that will help you find your way through the bureaucracy and
finish your program in a timely and successful manner.
- All of our graduate programs are housed in the
Department of Graduate Studies in Education (GSE) office. We are
located in the GYTE Annex, Room 122, and our phone number is 219-989-2326.
The office personnel are Virginia Rhodes, secretary and Dr. Robert Colon,
Department Head.
- During the admissions process, please
check with Virginia regularly to make certain that
necessary paperwork is completed on time. Your admission to
a program will not occur until all of the required materials
are received. It is your responsibility
to make certain that all necessary documents are requested and
sent to our office. You can save yourself much time and
trouble by being conscientious in the gathering of required documentation.
- Once you are admitted, you must register
for classes. PUC
allows registration online. However, you cannot register
for courses in GSE programs without permission from your advisor.
It is important, therefore, to find out when registration begins
each semester, see your advisor about appropriate coursework,
and register in a timely fashion. Failure to get your
advisor's permission may result in your being dropped from a
class for which you registered. Because of state and federal
requirements, it is necessary for us to sequence our programs
and supervise enrollment carefully. Please don't cause
difficulties for yourself by omitting this most important step. Registration
dates are posted on calendars located all over campus, including
our GSE office.
- Another most necessary step towards
completion of your graduate program is the plan of study (POS). It is a contract between
you and your advisor establishing the specific program that you
will complete. Once the POS is signed, even if the program
changes, you will not be required to make any modifications of
your course of study. The window of opportunity for completing
a POS is from the time you are admitted (and any conditions of
admission are completed) until the semester before you intend
to graduate. During this window, it is your responsibility
to contact your advisor and request that a POS be completed. Again,
please heed this reminder so that you do not delay your graduation.
- As stated above, you must pass the SLLA
exam, the state administration licensing exam, before you may
graduate. This must be
done before the end of the EDFA 695 Internship course. It
is your responsibility to register for and complete the exam,
sometime, we suggest, early in your final semester of classes,
the semester, that is, that you take EDFA 695 Internship. The
test bulletin with dates and registration information may be
obtained from Virginia in the GSE office.
In other parts of this handbook,
you will find information about the portfolio and the internship
with field experiences. Please
pay careful attention to the details of completion of both of these
most important parts of your administration program so that you do
not delay your graduation and licensure.
