PRE-ELEMENTARY EDUCATION (EWU) AA&S DTA
This education plan is intended for transfer students interested in applying to the Elementary
Education program at Eastern Washington University. It provides students the greatest flexibility for
curricular exploration, while ensuring that they earn junior standing relative to university breadth
requirements (aka GenEd, UCORE, etc.), which is reflected in the DTA (Direct Transfer Agreement)
annotation of this degree. This plan has been vetted by the Elementary Education advising staff at
EWU to ensure students are eligible to APPLY for admission into the Elementary Education program.
Please note that this advising plan DOES NOT guarantee admission into the university major. EWU will determine entrance
into their own program based on individual applicant criteria and on a competitive basis.
