Advising:

Applicants to the Teaching Credential Program are recommended to attend an Information Meeting, which provides information regarding prerequisites, requirements for admission, instructions for completing the application process, and the structure of the Credential Programs. Applicants should attend an information meeting as soon as possible since it may take one year to complete the state and university prerequisites required for admission to the program. Applicants who cannot attend on the the Credential Information Meetings should contact the Credential Services Office at (805) 893-2036 for advisement regarding program prerequisites and the application process. Applicants to the School Psychology Credential Program should attend a Counseling, Clinical, and School Psychology Information Meeting.
