* Funding information is provided as an example. Your situation may vary. The Critical Needs Scholarship (CNS) is only available to teachers with emergency certification in ESL. Note that tuition must be paid at the start of the semester (UD policies), but reimbursement typically is paid after the end of the semester and is credited to your UD account. Contact your district about local tuition reimbursement and ACE scholarship programs. See our FAQ page for more details.
If you would like to continue in the UD MA TESL degree, please apply by May 1, 2022. You may transfer a maximum of 9 credits taken as a nondegree student into a UD graduate degree.
