Arizona Teachers Academy award
The ATA award covers tuition and program fees for students who complete an initial teacher certification program and fulfill a commitment to teach in an Arizona public school after graduation. Awards will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis based on time of enrollment.
To be added to the ATA spring 2024 waitlist, complete the following steps:
Step 1
Submit this expression of interest, if you haven’t already.
Step 2
Undergraduate students:
Apply for admission to a qualifying undergraduate teacher-preparation program at ASU. Students submitting an application will have their application fee covered. When you submit your application, select "pay app fee later." You will not have to pay your application fee. Selecting “pay app fee later” lets us know to cover your fee if you have submitted the expression of interest form referred to in step 1.
Graduate students:
Apply for admission to a qualifying graduate teacher-preparation program at ASU. Students submitting an application will have their application fee covered. You will need to send your 7-digit application ID number to GradEducation@asu.edu. Once we’ve received your application ID number we will cover your fee and notify you to proceed with completing your application.
Step 3
Spring students: Complete the 2023-24 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), if you haven’t already.
Step 4
Once admitted, schedule an appointment with the MLFTC advising team to enroll in classes.
