Apply to the SSPC Program

You must be a UAB student to enroll in the SSPC program. Non-degree-seeking students must be admitted as temporary students before applying to the SSPC program.

After you have received formal acceptance to the SSPC program, your enrollment will appear in BlazerNet. Since students can take up to 12 credit hours as non-degree-seeking students, overrides may be granted by the SSP Certificate director or the department chair to ensure the ability to fulfill the 18 credit-hour requirement.

Please note that non-native speakers of English will be required to take the TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) examination or equivalent to enter the program.
