Pre-Master of Arts in Teaching (Pre-MAT)

For UNC students, you may affiliate with pre-MAT as early as the second semester of your first undergraduate year. If approved for pre-MAT, you may transfer in to the MAT program up to 12 credits when you earn a B or better in a specified set of courses, above and beyond the 120 undergraduate credits (minimum) required to earn your bachelor’s degree.

Early affiliation is an option available to current UNC-Chapel Hill undergraduate students only.

If you affiliate with the Pre-MAT you must still apply to the MAT program through the graduate school but your application will be placed in a priority pool during the admission review process.
