Secondary Education (Political Science), BAE Pathway
2017-2018
ASU Major: Secondary Education (Political Science), BAE | Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College
Pathway Notes
2.0 GPA in coursework used to satisfy MAPP requirements. All courses must be completed with a grade of C or greater.
Special Requirements

Completion of the MAPP and all special requirements satisfies the requirements for MCCCD Associate in Arts degree and AGEC-A, meets major map requirements at ASU, and guarantees admission to the Secondary Education (Political Science) B.A.E. degree program.

Special Requirements: 2.5 GPA in coursework used to satisfy MAPP requirements.  All courses must be completed with a grade of "C" or better.

While successful completion of the MAPP will guarantee admission to ASU's Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College, additional course work in your content area of specialization may be required prior to admission to the iTeachAZ Professional Teacher Program which may impact your ability to seamlessly progress through the upper division course work. We recommend you speak to a Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College advisor to discuss these requirements further.
