Financial Aid
Being able to pay for attending college is no easy task. Located in the Seay Building, the Office of Financial Aid offers assistance to you and your parents to ensure that you have the financial resources to focus on your education.
With a master’s degree in Special Education, you will be ready to pursue a rewarding career helping exceptional learners reach their full potential.
Centenary University’s Master of Arts (M.A.) in Special Education program will provide you with comprehensive training on how to create a learning environment in which all students can excel. We offer two program options, depending on your current qualifications:
- A 39-credit program for students working toward a master’s degree and a Teacher of Students with Disabilities Endorsement.
- A 36-credit program for students who enter the program with their Teacher of Students with Disabilities Endorsement and are only working toward their master’s degree.
Our Special Education program is offered as part of Centenary’s commitment to producing “broadly educated” graduates who want to make a difference in their community and in their profession. The curriculum includes courses on the assessment of children with special needs as well as the social and communication challenges they face.
