With degrees that lead to more than 15 teacher licenses and additional endorsements, the Dwight Schar College of Education prepares you to teach in classrooms in Ohio and beyond. In addition to the undergraduate programs at the Ashland campus, Ashland offers "2+2" and "bachelors completion" programs at our Elyria and Columbus program centers. These programs enable you to begin your program at a two-year college and complete it at Ashland.
Have you already earned a bachelor’s degree in another field and are interested in becoming a teacher? Our innovative Bachelor’s Plus program puts you on an accelerated path to earn your teaching license instead of enrolling in another four years. If you already hold a bachelor’s degree and want to begin a teaching career in up to 15 different licensure areas, check out our Bachelor’s Plus initial teacher licensure program. In operation for more than 25 years, it is one of Ohio’s oldest post-baccalaureate licensure programs. Most classes, excluding field experiences, are held during the evenings or on Saturdays.
