Admissions and Financial Aid

Information about admissions and financial aid for students interested in the IR Cert program in the Penn State College of Education.

 

Admission Criteria

 

The IR Certificate program consists of 18 credits of required and elective course work. Whether acquired through course work or practical experience, a working knowledge of basic statistics is a prerequisite. The Penn State World Campus offers Applied Statistics (STAT 500) to fulfill this requirement. Students needing STAT 500 must plan on a 21-credit program to earn the certificate.

There are two required courses: Foundations and Fundamentals of Institutional Research (HI ED 801) and Designing Institutional Research Studies (HI ED 830); however, credit may be given for appropriate academic and research experience. All other courses are elective, and 6 of the 18 credits may be transferred from other institutions. Advisement will be provided via distance by program faculty based on a program profile completed by the student.
