Application Instructions for Alumni of the Graduate School of Education and Counseling

Applicants who were admitted to and have completed or graduated from a degree, endorsement, or licensure program within the last five years and are seeking admission to another licensure or degree program within the same academic program are eligible to complete an abbreviated application. For example: an M.A.T. preservice alumna wishes to apply for an endorsement program. Both programs are within the Teacher Education program therefore the abbreviated application process is applicable.

Alumni applying to degrees or license programs outside of their original programs MUST follow the complete application instructions for the new program. For example: A Counseling Psychology alumni applies to the school counseling program. As school counseling is a different program, the abbreviated process does not apply.

Alumni applying to the Doctorate program must submit all required application materials except the $50 application fee. The fee is waived.

Please submit following items. Additional documents/information may be required by the new program.

1. Letter of intent discussing your reason for entering the new program.
2. Application form: Online or paper (.pdf). $50 application fee is waived.
3. Current Professional resume.
4. One letter of recommendation with completed recommendation form (.pdf).
5. Official copies of transcripts from all postsecondary institutions attended since completing your previous graduate program at Lewis & Clark (if any); if applicable to waiver request or transfer credit to your current studies.
