Bachelor of Science (B.S.) Major in Education (Secondary Education; Teacher Certification with Double Major in another B.S. teacher certification degree program)

Texas State University

First-time college applicants are required to graduate or have graduated from a foreign secondary school with an academic profile equivalent to that of a U.S. high school curriculum.

Graduate with the equivalent of a U.S. high school diploma

Submit your secondary school transcript(s), including all courses taken and marks earned for each semester, as well as your graduation or school-leaving exam results. Original documents or copies that have been certified by your school or a U.S. embassy/consulate official must be submitted. Students that complete the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) exam must provide a scratch card or results checker by the application closing date. If the original records are not in English, a certified translation must accompany the original records.

When reviewing your application, Texas State will consider your high school curriculum, admission essay(s), quality and competitive level of courses taken and grades earned, in addition to other factors presented in your application.

We strongly encourage anyone who is not offered freshman admission to attend another college, complete 30 hours of transferable credit with a minimum GPA of a 2.25, and apply for transfer admission.
