TLI/EAL Graduate Credit

Graduate credit for EAL and TLI courses is available from The College of New Jersey and for TLI courses, High Tech High Graduate School of Education.

TLI and EAL is partnering with The College of New Jersey (TCNJ) to offer graduate credit for courses. TLI participants have the ability to earn up to 12 graduate credits as non-matriculated students which can be applied toward a Master of Education degree should the participant choose to enroll in a TCNJ graduate program.

Participants who are new to TCNJ will sign up for graduate credit during their TLI/EAL course and will be “quick admitted” as visiting students then provided with an ID number and access to TCNJ systems. The fee to bank courses for graduate credit is $450 per class, payable during the TLI/EAL course. Students who elect to bank coursework are required to submit an additional assignment to their course facilitator. Participants will be able to order official transcripts as soon as they receive confirmation of their earned credit from TCNJ. Participants who subsequently decide to enroll in the full master’s program will do so directly with TCNJ.

TCNJ’s Off-Site Graduate Programs have been serving international educators since 1981 with summer and academic year programs across the globe and online. TCNJ offers Master of Education programs in Elementary, Secondary, and English as a Second Language teaching.

It is also possible for a participant to be admitted to a TCNJ master’s program prior to completing coursework in the TLI/EAL programs. For more information on this option, please contact Dr. Stuart Carroll at szcarrol@tcnj.edu.

About HTH GSE
The High Tech High Graduate School of Education — the nation’s first graduate school rooted within K–12 schools — pushes the boundaries of what learning can look like by creating the context for transformative learning and action in schools and systems across the globe. As a hub for innovation, improvement, and justice, HTH GSE and HTH K12 are intentionally interconnected to elevate student brilliance, inspire work that matters, and measurably improve life outcomes for all learners.

Graduate Program Details
The Master’s in Educational Leadership program is designed to help educators strengthen the skills, mindsets, and tools to lead for justice and deeper learning. Our program believes in the connection of theory and practice, and it is perfect for those who are ready to commit to self-development within a dedicated learning community. Therefore, it is uniquely created for educators with at least three years of experience working with students, practitioners, or in the greater field of education. Likewise, about 40% of candidates enrolled in our program already hold a Master’s Degree or higher. Moreover, our commitment to theory and practice is reified through our practitioner faculty who serve as educational leaders outside of instructing our courses. All of our courses are designed and taught by education leaders from around the nation, and educators from our very own HTH K-12 schools.

The EdL Program provides candidates with three pathways for earning a master’s degree. The first is a full-time, 10-month residency program at one of the 16 K-12 High Tech High Schools. The second and third pathways are almost exclusively online, completed in either 10 or 20 months with a required one-week immersion course at our San Diego campus in August.
