  • The graduate application form
  • One official transcript sent directly from the college/university to graduate services, of all previous undergraduate and graduate course work
  • Official test scores from the Graduate Record Exam (GRE) are required if you are seeking your first teaching license. If you have previously taken the GRE and want to have your scores sent to Xavier, please contact GRE at 1-888-GRE-SCORE.
    * Students who will be pursuing the licensure in addition to or instead of the M.Ed. degree, need to apply for admission as a LICENSURE SEEKING student.
