Teacher candidates are assigned to a particular clinical or student teaching seminar section based on their certification area and placement site by their respective academic department. Teacher candidates should not register for their clinical or student teaching course until they receive written authorization from their academic department/program to do so. Teacher candidates typically are authorized to register for their respective clinical or student teaching course during the NEIU late registration period.
Teacher candidates may only report to their placement site if they are fully registered for their clinical or student teaching course. To be considered fully registered in a clinical or student teaching course, the course must appear on the teacher candidate’s record in the official University student registration system.
