Boston University Title II Annual Institutional Report on Teacher Preparation Academic Year 2003-2004
Since 1999/2000, Section 207 of Title II of the Higher Education Act has mandated that each teacher preparation institution submit an annual report on the performance of students and make this report available to the public. In Massachusetts, this information is recorded as students’ performance on the Massachusetts Tests for Educator Licensure. The chart below provides the most recent Boston University report for the 2003/2004 program year.
Boston University does not require a student to pass any part of these tests prior to acceptance into a program. We believe that Boston University standards should be the basis of admission.
If you would like more information about these test scores, the ratio of students to supervisors in the field, or information about the number of full- and part-time faculty supporting these programs, we would be pleased to provide it. You can e-mail jdee@bu.edu or call 617-353-3212 for additional information.
