Additional Information


  • The course work in the Master of Science in Education with a Major in Special Education will not satisfy the United States Department of Homeland Security and the Office of the Vice Provost for Graduate Students and Postdoctoral Scholars requirement that you take 6 credit hours of face to face classes per semester. As such, Purdue University Fort Wayne is unable to issue a Form I-20, Certificate of Eligibility, for this program.
