WITS students will benefit from an expedited admissions process and special tuition rate, and coursework taken at WITS, as part of the undergraduate program, can be applied to the graduate degree. 

​

The Gratz College Master of Education (M.Ed.) degree is an online, 30 credit (10 courses) program. The 8-week, asynchronous courses allow students to learn from their individual work and reflection, from other students, and from Gratz College’s faculty of practitioners. Gratz College strives for students to graduate the program re-energized about teaching and inspired to continue their good work in the world.

Students who complete all three of these courses at WITS will only require an additional 21 credits at Gratz College to complete the M.Ed. degree.
