Multiple Subject Credential Program (K-8 Teaching)

Welcome to the Multiple Subject Credential Program at California State University, Long Beach. Our program is a state-approved and nationally accredited professional preparation program which leads to a credential to teach multiple subjects in a self-contained classroom setting.  Teachers with this credential traditionally teach elementary (K-8) grades.

Students who wish to learn more about the Multiple Subject Credential Program (MSCP) and/or who plan to apply to the program are required to attend a Group Information and Application Meeting prior to the March 1st, July 15th or October 1st application deadline.

Reservations are not necessary to attend these meetings. Please purchase the Multiple Subject Credential Program Handbook at the CSULB Bookstore or the Copy Pro Copy Center at the corner of Palo Verde and bring it with you to the meeting.

Please note that application to CSULB is separate from the application to the credential program. Applications to the Multiple Subject Program are only available at the Application Meetings listed above. For instructions on applying to CSULB, click here.

The links on the left side of this page describe the program options offered at CSULB and provide information on the application process.  We hope to see you at an Information Meeting soon!
