The GoTeach11 certification program requires applicants to meet certain eligibility requirements before being able to enter our program.

Please review our eligibility criteria:

DEGREE

Applicants must hold at least a Bachelor's degree from an accredited college or university. 

Out of Country Applicants: Applicants who hold a degree from a foreign college or university must have their transcript equivocated from a state-approved evaluation center. A foreign transcript evaluation documenting the equivalent of a bachelor’s degree must be sent directly to us from the state-approved evaluation center.

OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPTS

Applicants must provide official transcripts from all colleges/universities that count towards their degree.

If an applicant does not have enough college credit hours, he or she may take and pass a specific TX PACT exam to qualify.

Out of Country Applicants: Applicants with a foreign transcript evaluation documenting the equivalent of a bachelor’s degree must also demonstrate college-level skills via the TSI and TOEFL-iBT. Please find information regarding TSI and TOEFL-iBT on the Texas Education Agency website here.
