Advising and Program Requirements

Each content area in LAS has its own requirements for completion, including prerequisites that must be completed or in-progress before applying to the minor. 

All students enrolled in the secondary education minor should continue to refer to their LAS advisers; these departmental advisers will be the most knowledgeable when it comes to LAS course questions and graduation plans.

Questions about the minor, teaching placements, specific education courses, EdTPA, and/or licensure should be directed to the Secondary Education Adviser at secedadvising@education.illinois.edu.
