CSI Major: Secondary Education EDUC 290

Indicate University/College (transfer institution):_____Idaho State University_______

Purpose: The purpose of this assignment is for you to begin to address the graduation
requirements for your major and to address the entrance requirements for your chosen four-year
institution. Please address the questions below. Please type your responses.

1. What courses are you currently taking this semester?

290

Geography 200 – Elective

History 102 - Elective

2. What courses do you need to graduate with your AA degree? (Please see Lena Paxton to get a copy
of your Degree Audit, if you have problems. Lena is located in the Matrix in the Taylor Administration
Building on the CSI campus; you can also email her at lpaxton@csi.edu.) Otherwise, go to MyCSI under
your grades option.

I believe those three courses are all I will need to graduate.

3. Have you applied for CSI graduation? (https://www.csi.edu/forms/students_forms/gradapp/)

Yes and was told I was on track to graduate.

4. What are the entrance requirements for your chosen four-year institution? What are the
application deadlines? If you plan to apply for scholarships, what are the scholarship
application deadlines? Have you applied for financial aid?

 Completed New Undergraduate Application and paid the $50 nonrefundable

application fee;
 A 2.50 or better cumulative grade point average;
 Completion of the Idaho State Board of Education high school core requirements;
 A math minimum test score of 18 on the ACT or a 520 on the Redesigned SAT Math
Section;** and
 An English minimum test score of 18 on the ACT or a 25 on the Redesigned SAT
Reading Test.

I believe it was December 1st for the spring semester?

I have not applied yet because last time I applied I ended up not getting a stimulus check even
though college students are the poorest adults in the country. 

5. Does your chosen four-year institution require Praxis 1 (or other tests)? What scores are
needed? What are the dates for Praxis 1 (or other tests)? Do these tests have to be completed
before the application deadline? If so, how long does it take to process test scores?

 Praxis Website: www.ets.org

Praxis 1

Minimum scores needed to pass the Praxis Core Academic Skills for Educators are:

 Math 162
 Reading 168
 Writing 165

I couldn’t find whether or not it had to be done by a certain time.

Is there any options at CSI to do ISU things while living in Twin?
