Policy Statement

CU educator preparation majors may select the option of pursuing licensure through the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction. This option is available through one of two articulation agreements, either with Winston-Salem State University or High Point University.

Policy Procedures

This path allows CU students to take coursework and evidences on those campuses as required bythe State. Students who pursue this option must meet entrance requirements and complete an application at their chosen campus. Once accepted, classes begin at the corresponding institution after the spring of the sophomore year, concluding with the internship experiences.

Successful completers receive the following:

  • A diploma from CU and WSSU or HPU;
  • Certification from the American Association of Christian School (AACS) and the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI);
  • Recommendation for a state teaching license through the NC Department of Public Instruction.

Failure to follow this policy may lead to disciplinary action.
