Q. Do I need a Master's degree before starting
the program?
A. Yes, a Master's degree with a minimum 3.0 is required prior to
starting the program.
Q. Does the College of Saint Rose have financial
aid to pay for the program?
A. Yes, the main Albany campus accepts applications for financial
aid. The Long Island administrative office does not handle financial
aid.
Q. Can I transfer any credits from another
program into this Ed Admin program?
A. No, transferred credits are not accepted for this program. You
must take the entire 24-credit program with The College of Saint
Rose Off-Campus Program through CITE.
Q. How is the total amount paid?
A. You pay for each class as you go - $850 approximately every six
weeks.
Q. Can I miss one day of the five-day course?
A. You may not miss any part of the first day of class. However,
if you miss a day of class, you must call the CITE office and speak
to Lydia (ext. 815) or Ilene (ext. 834). They will give you the
details of the mandatory make up assignment, which is due within
one week after the course’s conclusion.
Q. If I am a Saturday student can I switch
to versa Sunday (or vice)?
A. If you know that you will be missing one of your scheduled class
dates, you may attend the course on the alternate weekend’s
dates in lieu of doing the make up assignment. For example, if you
are enrolled in the Saturday course and know that you will not be
able to make one of the days, you may opt to transfer to the Sunday
course; however, you would have to do the entire course
on Sundays, not just the one day. You will then be able
to return to your preferred day for the next course.
Q. Do you provide courses after completion
of the SBL (School Building Level) Certificate?
A. Yes, we provide two courses and you get your SDL (School District
Level) Certificate. We also offer two additional courses after the
SDL, which will earn you a Master’s Degree.

Q. I’d love to take a certain class,
but I have a prior commitment for one of the days. Can I take the
class?
A. Sorry, please take a different class. We do not permit absences
from classes because of the accelerated nature of the courses. Should
you become ill, you must make arrangements to make up the time when
the course is offered again within the time allowed by the college.
Credit will be granted once you have made up your seat time and
have submitted all due assignments. Absences on the first day of
class cannot be made up – missing any part of the first day
will result in being withdrawn from the course. Students also may
not make up more than one day’s absence. This will also result
in being withdrawn from the course.
Q. I’d like to take a particular course,
but I don’t have a car. Can I get there by public transportation?
A. All of the locations in Brooklyn, Bronx, Manhattan and Queens
are accessible by public transportation. The locations in Long Island
and Westchester generally entail taking a train and then a cab.
When you register for a class, we will send you more specific directions.
If you have more specific questions, please don’t hesitate
to call the office at 516-221-4082 or toll free at 1-888-222-3016.
