Master of Science in Special Education, Application Process

Applications for the Masters Degree program are due March 1st for students who plan to begin the program in the following Fall semester and October 1st for students who plan to begin the program in the following Spring semester.  CSULB students hoping to be accepted in our Masters degree and Level II credential program after completing the Level I credential, should apply for the 2 programs concurrently.  Required essays should clearly articulate the outcomes a student expects to gain from both the credential and the Masters degree program.  Applications are available on our program website or from the Graduate Studies Office in the College of Education, ED1 Room 7.   Students should review all program requirements in the current University Catalog prior to applying to the Masters Degree program.  Students must apply to the University as well.  Once students have been accepted, they will be invited to a mandatory orientation meeting.
