   graduation from WMU.  Select from PFFT 114 or PFHW 163 unless the MACRAO
   Transfer Agreement has been satisfied.
3. Electives should be appropriate to the teaching minor in an academic subject
   taught in elementary schools.  See WMU catalog or contact the WMU College of
   Education Advising Office listed below for assistance with minor choice.  A
   science/mathematics minor is required.
4. Selection for Elementary or Secondary Education:
   a. Complete and submit all required materials for admission to the WMU
