Return to: Colleges, Departments, & Programs
The following is a program of courses for students who are planning to apply for admission to the Social Sciences single subject credential program at CSU Stanislaus. This program was approved in 1998 by the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing (CCTC) in Sacramento, and was first implemented at CSU Stanislaus in the fall of 1998. Other public or private universities, such as Chapman and National, also require this or an equivalent CCTC-approved teacher credential subject matter preparation program.
In addition to this or an equivalent credential subject matter preparation program, students must complete a bachelor’s degree. Students completing the single subject matter preparation program are advised to major in Social Sciences with a concentration in History, Political Science, and Geography, as nearly all courses in the 38-unit Social Sciences major with the above concentration also count in this program. Students must maintain a grade point average of 2.85 to successfully complete the program.
Students have the option to take the Single Subject CSET (California Subject Examinations for Teachers). Those who pass do not need to complete this or any other credential preparation program to be accepted into a single subject credential program for social sciences. Exam fee, testing dates, and more information is available at the CSU Stanislaus Credential Processing Center in DBH 303, or by calling (209) 667-3534.
Students planning to complete this program must contact the Coordinator of Social Sciences for advisement and an evaluation of courses taken elsewhere that may satisfy requirements. The coordinator is also the officer who signs the final forms certifying to the Credential Processing Center that the student has satisfactorily completed the single subject matter preparation program and has met grade point average requirements.
