Welcome
We would like to welcome all new and returning students, potential students, and our many guests to our website.
This website is designed to provide both current and prospective students with course schedules, registration instructions, syllabi, contact information and office hours, and general program requirements. For the prospective student the site has information on applying to the University, the School of Education, and the VITP, as well as providing the information needed to make a decision as to whether the VITP is right for them.
