This was a very good site. It showed in detail what courses you would be required to take.
I would like more information on the cost and requirements to be inrolled into the program. I graduated from ECU in 2001 with a BFA in art education and a BFA in art (consentration: Painting). I have been working in Onslow county schools for seven years, and am very interested in a master's degree. Please contact me at phyllis.willis@onslow.k-12.nc.us
