The Master of Education in Pre-K-12 Administration and Supervision (MEd) program is a 36-credit-hour program.
This multifaceted, practical program prepares educators for administrative and supervisory positions that include the principalship at all levels and supervisor and director positions across all school division departments. Our graduates have gained all leadership positions, including assistant superintendent and superintendent.
Program Highlights
- K-12 endorsement in school administration and supervision.
- Combination of in-class, clinical, and capstone experiences.
- Courses designed to ensure compatibility with Professional Standards for Educational Leaders (PSEL), Virginia Competencies, and Council of Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP) Skills.

We are proud that more than 99% of our MEd in educational leadership students passed the School Leaders Licensure Assessment (SLLA), which is required by the Commonwealth of Virginia, on their first try, and that more than 125 of our graduates have assumed leadership positions in schools or school divisions.
