Application information

Entry requirements

This program may be completed on its own or in conjunction with a graduate degree at UW. The TAIC course of study includes five comprehensive classes that cover Native American education history, multicultural education practices and instructional methods. It also helps students develop an understanding of Native culture through courses, community events and the Native American Education, Resource and Cultural Center . If you’re already enrolled in a UW graduate program, you need approval from an advisor to add the TAIC certificate to your degree. This flexibility makes the program a great fit for working educators who are looking to expand their skillset without taking time off.

Tuition is charged per credit, so the total depends on the modules you register for each year. Current fees are listed in the official fee schedule.

The application fee is $40 and non-refundable, paid when the application is submitted through the online application. ACT or SAT scores are not part of the admissions requirements.
