Add-On Licensure for Teachers

Meredith’s add-on licensure programs are designed for the K–12 teacher who holds a degree and a teaching license. Add-On Licensure students must successfully complete 18 credit hours of coursework and can choose between Reading (K–12) or English as a Second Language (K–12). Students may apply the 18 credit hours earned for licensure towards a Master of Education at Meredith. Completion of a Master of Education earns the students a North Carolina "M" license.
