Based on profound mission and vision alignment centered around developing global citizens and educators, Participate Learning and Elon University have established a direct admit pathway for active Participate Learning teachers with a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or better to be admitted to the M.Ed program at Elon University through a simplified process. Teachers who meet this requirement will be admitted to the program on a first-come basis, and will be required to indicate their interest in enrolling through this pathway by our priority deadline of April 15 to ensure successful matriculation to the program. Should the Direct Admit cohort be full, or should applicants from Participate Learning not meet the minimum requirements for direct admission, we encourage applicants to submit a traditional application file for review. Students not able to be admitted through the Direct Admit Pathway may be admitted through the traditional application pathway.

Complete your M.Ed. in two years. Courses are offered online giving you the flexibility to study while incorporating our curriculum into your teaching practice. The M.Ed. program enrolls once per year in the summer semester.

In Elon’s M.Ed. program, you will learn to:

  • Teach each of your students most effectively
  • Use your own data to solve problems in education
  • Leverage cutting-edge educational technology
  • Become a leader in your school and district
