Master's in Educational Administration: Cd-12 (Leading to principal certification)
Any student admitted on or after September 24, 2001, to the Master’s Degree
Program in Educational Administration (CD-12) leading to principal certification
will be required to meet a new comprehensive examination requirement.
That requirement has two parts:
1) Completing the Principalship block (EDLP 706 and either EDLP 707 a & b or
709 a and b) with a grade of B or better in each, and
2) Successful completion of the NTE PRAXIS in Educational Administration. "Successful
completion" is defined as meeting the required minimum score as specified by the
South Carolina Department of Education.
Students already fully admitted to the program as of September 24, 2001, had the
option to meet the new requirement or elect to take the traditional written examination
administered in the fall and spring each year. However, the written comprehensive
exam was discontinued after the fall 2002 testing.
