Undergraduate
The Office of Academic Support and Information Services (OASIS) provides individualized academic advisement to all students in the College. During the initial advising conference, the advisor will help the student (1) select the major which will lead the student to achieving career goals, (2) evaluate the student’s lower-division course work to determine whether prerequisites for the major have been met, (3) plan a tentative program of study for the student to follow which will lead to graduation in the desired major, and (4) provide the student with a copy of this tentative program. The tentative program will be finalized when the student is fully admitted to the college.
Students are encouraged to visit the Office of Academic Support and Information Services to meet with an academic advisor as early as possible so that a program of study may be prepared. This will provide students with a well-defined set of program requirements and enable them to progress in an efficient manner toward the completion of a degree. The Office of Academic Support and Information Services is located in Petway Hall, Suite 1300, (904) 620-3934.
Graduate
Graduate students are expected to meet as soon as possible with their assigned faculty advisor to determine appropriate course work for their desired major. During the initial advising conference, the faculty advisor will help the student (1) select the major which will lead the student to achieving career goals, (2) evaluate the student’s baccalaureate level course work to determine whether prerequisites for the major have been met, (3) plan a tentative program of study for the student to follow which will lead to graduation in the desired major, and (4) provide the student with a copy of this tentative program. The tentative program will be finalized when the student is fully admitted to the college.
Students are provided with the contact information of their faculty advisor and should contact them to schedule an appointment. Students with specific questions or concerns about university policies or regulations may visit the Office of Academic Support and Information Services located in Petway Hall, Suite 1300, (904) 620-3934 or coehs-advising@unf.edu.
Clinical Logistics
All undergraduate and graduate programs in the College of Education and Human Services involve a variety of clinical experiences.
All students enrolled in College of Education and Human Services courses requiring clinical experiences in schools or require the student to complete requirements at a school are mandated by state law to have a Level 2 background check (including fingerprints) done by the school district prior to being permitted on elementary and secondary school campuses. Students should be aware that noncompliance with fingerprinting requirements will result in the inability to complete course requirements. Contact the Office Academic Support and Information Services for information regarding fingerprinting procedures.
Students participating in teacher education internships must submit an application for internship no later than the fourth Friday of the semester preceding the semester of internship (excluding summer terms). Each semester the College reviews all internship applications to assure the student has met all requirements for internship, including:
- Current status as a student in good academic standing (2.5 Cumulative GPA);
- Completion of all lower division general education and prerequisite courses with grades of “C” or higher;
- Completion of all college and program required courses with grades of “C” or higher;
- Completion of mandatory criminal background checks and official fingerprinting in consonance with the policies of local school districts and state mandates.
- Documentation of completion of Professional Education Exam (PED) and respective Subject-Area Exam (SAE)
- Documentation of First Aid/CPR.
All student-teaching internships are considered full-time experiences. Students must adhere to the professional work responsibilities expected of all teachers in the schools in which internship experiences are held.
Please contact the Office of Academic Support and Information Services (located in Petway Hall, Suite 1300, 904-620-3934) or COEHS-advising@unf.edu for more information on fingerprinting, internship, and other clinical experiences.
