Please note - UWRF COST is a unique part of the
Consortium for Overseas Student Teaching (COST)
Information found on other COST web sites
is not necessarily pertinent to the UWRF COST program.
The Best way to get information about UWRF COST is to attend a meeting
A meeting for students interested in student teaching abroad in Fall 2013 takes place in the Lounge outside 203 WEB 3:00 - 4:00 p.m., September 27, 2012.
Students must attend if they intend to student teach abroad Fall 2013.
For information contact Nora Koch, COST Administrative Assistant
Teacher Education Students wishing to student teach overseas must be cleared through the College of Education and Professional Studies. Students may attend any COST meeting. However, in order to participate in the COST program, it is mandatory that students attend the COST meeting scheduled one year prior to the semester in which student teaching takes place. The meeting for Fall is in late September and for Spring in late February. Look for posters announcing the meeting in the lobby of the WEB building.
COST Program participants must complete the first half of their student teaching in the United States. Students must apply for student teaching one year in advance of the intended student teaching semester and for both United States and overseas teaching at the same time. All UWRF standard eligibility requirements must be met. Those accepted need to demonstrate above average ability, good character, flexibility, and strong motivation. Anyone interested must attend the open meeting.
