Following the submission of the online application, we’ll conduct a phone interview to discuss your short answer responses, and to learn more about you and your prior experiences.
The next step is a virtual interview with members of our team. The face-to-face interview includes a role play simulation, an opportunity to share more about why you are a good fit for the Marshall Teacher Residency, and a traditional interview portion. We will provide you with materials prior to the interview to help you prepare, as well as the opportunity to attend a virtual preparation session if you have questions or need additional guidance prior to your interview.
Once your final interview is scheduled, we will contact your 3 professional references to conduct a reference check.
We begin admitting candidates into the program in January. In order to enroll in the program, you will schedule a one-on-one enrollment check-in with a faculty member, where we’ll review the enrollment agreement, your progress on the testing requirements, and share information about our financial aid partners.
