From EDL to Ed.D.: Stony Brook's Educational Leadership Program Articulates with Ed.D. Programs at Hofstra, Fordham University and Seton Hall University

Fordham University

SPD's Educational Leadership Advanced Graduate Certificate program fully articulates with Fordham University's Executive Ed.D. Program in Educational Administration and Supervision. The Ed.D. program requires only 45 credits to the doctorate, including dissertation guidance, after acceptance into the program.

Fordham's intensive weekend program is especially designed for working administrators. Students may attend on a part-time basis so as to not interfere with work, family and other obligations. For further program information and application procedures, visit Fordham University on the web.

Hofstra University

Stony Brook University and Hofstra University have joined together to ease the path to a doctoral degree for alumni of Stony Brook's Educational Leadership program. Stony Brook graduates will be able to apply the credits they have earned in their post-master's certificate program toward Hofstra's Ed.D. in Educational Administration.

Upon acceptance by Hofstra, Stony Brook alumni will have the opportunity to take two Hofstra doctoral courses at Stony Brook (at Stony Brook's tuition rate). They will transfer these and their previous program credits into the Hofstra doctoral program, thus reducing the Ed.D. credit requirements from 79 to 43.

For further program information and application procedures, visit Hofstra on the web.

Seton Hall University

SPD’s Educational Leadership Advanced Graduate Certificate program fully articulates with Seton Hall University’s Executive Ed.D.

The SHU program is an intensive program involving weekends and summers especially designed for working administrators so that they can fully take advantage of this opportunity on a part-time basis so as to not interfere with work, family and other obligations.  For further program information and application procedures, visit Seton Hall on the web.
