COE Student Resources
Below are a list of supporting resources the College of Education advising team has worked to gather for our education students.
A.S.T. Transfer Pathway for Elementary & Early Childhood
A.S.T. Student Handbook
VERY IMPORTANT! Download the above A.S.T. Student Handbook, which serves as the essential
and comprehensive guide for all students planning to transfer to MTSU following the
Associates in Teaching (A.S.T.) transfer pathways from one of our community college partners.
After reviewing the handbook, you can find major-specific documents below to help
ensure you understand your unique transfer pathway. Incoming students are required
to sign up for CUSTOMS, the new student orientations prior to their starting term.
