Licensure information
Licensure faq
Can I receive my diploma and/or license early?
No. You must complete your final day of student teaching to receive a grade in the course. Only once you receive a grade in the course, can the Teacher Certification Officer complete a degree audit and let the Records Office know to post your degree. DPI endorsement for your license can only happen after your degree is posted.
