For campus seniors
We’re looking for committed, diverse, and hard-working people who believe every child deserves an excellent education.
Our priority is selecting candidates who possess not only basic requirements but a tenacious spirit and true commitment to addressing educational inequity, based on the belief that all students are capable of high achievement.
By June 2023, you must have a bachelor’s degree.
Additional opportunities for campus freshman, sophomores and juniors!

We’re committed to affordability, community, and diversity.
We want you to be part of this growing group of new teachers who understand what it takes to serve all students – no matter their learning or language needs – in culturally responsive and inclusive ways. Our teacher residents represent a variety of academic, personal, and professional backgrounds and experiences. All teacher residents are eligible for some level of scholarship and financial aid.
Here are a few of our most inspirational accomplishments:
By partnering with San Francisco Unified School District, the Teacher Residency helps fill a need for highly prepared teachers to build a more equitable system.
Regardless of the school you teach in, teacher residents learn to serve emergent bilinguals. At Syracuse City School District, our residents learn firsthand what that means.
Becoming a teacher is hard and rewarding work. We’re so proud of residents like Justin who persevere throughout the program.
The NYU Teacher Residency, a one-year, online master of arts in teaching (MAT), prepares you to teach students of all backgrounds and all instructional needs. We are fully accredited by the Council for the Accreditation of Teacher Preparation.Â
Two degree options are available:
Upon completion of the Inclusive Childhood Education (elementary school) program, you:
- earn your master of arts in teaching in Inclusive Childhood Education (dual certification in childhood education Grades 1-6 and teaching students with disabilities Grades 1-6).
- become eligible for recommendation for initial certification in New York State in childhood education and childhood special education for Grades 1-6.
Upon completion of the Secondary Education (middle and high school) program, you:
- earn your master of arts in teaching in Secondary Education.
- become eligible for recommendation for initial certification in New York State in a secondary teaching content area in English, mathematics, science, or social studies for Grades 7-12 (with a Grades 5-6 extension), or in secondary special education for Grades 7-12.
Degree option availability varies by location.
Eligibility to join the Teacher Residency is based on your previous undergraduate and graduate course work. There are different course work requirements for each of the two master of arts in teaching degrees: Inclusive Childhood Education (elementary school) and Secondary Education (middle and high school).Â
We are the only university-based national teacher residency program.
NYU Steinhardt faculty have been leading virtual classes to prepare teachers across the nation since the Teacher Residency launched.
We have residency partner schools in San Francisco, CA, Washington, DC, Danbury, CT, Palm Beach, FL, Upstate and Central New York, and New York City. We continue to add locations and regions as the Teacher Residency grows.
Take the next step to becoming a well-prepared teacher, ready to serve all students.
