Will I get to select the region where I will teach?

You will get to tell us where you are interested in teaching as a part of your initial application. After you've been invited to interview, you will have the opportunity to revisit your regions of interest by finalizing your placement community selection(s).

As you consider where you would like to teach, you should consider the factors most important to you in a community, compare cost of living, most likely subject placements, master's degree options, etc. to determine which placement community(ies) may be a good fit for you.

The ability to select a region or placement community in your application and/or after being invited to interview depends on several factors, such as meeting the requirements for eligibility in the region as set by the state or licensing partner (GPA, coursework, etc.), being available when the region has their summer training, and the number of placements still available.
