TWU Requirements for TExES Exams

Because passing the TExES exams is a state requirement for teaching certification, policies and procedures are in place to encourage and support students in TWU’s Educator Preparation program in passing their exams by the time they graduate.

TWU TExES Policy

To enroll in clinical student teaching or internship for initial certification, you must pass the TExES content area exam and pass the TExES PPR exam prior to beginning the clinical student teaching experience. If you are seeking a supplemental certificate in Bilingual, English as a Second Language or Special Education; you must also pass the supplemental exam(s) prior to clinical student teaching. It is your responsibility to meet the testing requirements of the Texas Woman’s University College of Professional Education and the Texas Education Agency.
