Notes:    

1. Biblical/Theological Requirements: Studies in the Biblical Studies sequence (specifically course work focusing on Jewish history and the ancient Middle East) provide significant non-Western perspective and should be viewed in the curriculum as non-western studies.
2. Teacher Education Core: In addition to the Biblical/Theological Requirements, General Education Requirements, and Professional Requirements listed, students must complete appropriate endorsement requirements. These endorsements are designed to meet specific requirements established in 92 NCA 24.

3.Students completing the ESL Supplemental Endorsement must present evidence of competency in a foreign Language equivalent to two years of high school level or two semesters of college level.
