certification in texas
The major admission standards in Texas are that an applicant must possess a Bachelor’s degree from an accredited university and a GPA of at least 2.50. Your GPA must be at least 2.50 over the past 60 hours. If your GPA is below 2.50, you may need additional certification requirements. More info for low GPA applicants
In the last semester of their college coursework, a graduating senior may be eligible for contingency admission. If the applicant fails to earn a Bachelor’s degree, contingency status cannot be extended. Contingency admission allows applicants to begin the program while they are completing their Bachelor’s degree.
To qualify, you must be a graduating senior working towards finishing your undergraduate degree in December 2024. If so, you can apply and begin submitting admission paperwork for WCACP to review.
