Expenses

Incoming corps members take Praxis I and II examinations in order to be considered highly qualified in their grade level and content areas. Once testing is successfully completed, corps members are granted Transition to Teaching permits and enroll in graduate coursework at Marian University. Teach For America and Marian enjoy a close partnership that allows corps members to complete many course requirements while attending professional development sessions co-facilitated by Teach For America staff members. At the end of their two-year commitment, corps members earn a master’s degree and full teaching certification. From preparation for Praxis exams to creating a graduate course of study that is tailored to corps members’ professional needs, our staff works to maintain an environment of success at every level.
