3. Send your membership as an Aerospace Education Member to Civil Air Patrol.

If you are missing any of the above, see directions below and take steps to complete.

The UT AE  Workshop course number is:

Aerospace Basic course is TPTE 595, Section 001

Advanced course is TPTE 595, Section 011

 The Aerospace Grant will be paying your tuition for your workshop this summer, so this means after you are registered for the course you will have to go online to confirm your attendance for summer.  Note: You may receive a bill from UT for your tuition.  Your tuition will be paid by our grant in May.

It very important that you do this by  May 25.  Failure to confirm your attendance by the deadline will result in your schedule being canceled and you being charged a late fee to re-register.  The grant will not cover the expense for late fees or withdrawal fees.

In order to register you for this course, you will need to be admitted or Re-admitted into the Graduate School.  You can get an application on the UTK website (see address below), fill it out (if you have not already done so) and returned it to the Graduate School as soon as possible because it takes 4-6 weeks to process. 

To expedite the process, please apply as UNDECLARED major and NON-DEGREE.  If you wish to pursue a degree, the non-degree status can be changed at a later date.  If you have never been admitted to our Graduate School, you will also need to request transcripts from any institutions you have attended to be sent to the Graduate School.  Their address is on the application form. 

The UT AE Teacher Workshop course number is:

Basic    TPTE 595, Section 001

Advanced TPTE 595, Section 011

 
The course will be listed 2nd Session of Summer and will be under Dr. Susan Benner's name.

 

It is very important that you start your paperwork now to apply to the Graduate School at the University of Tennessee if you are not already admitted.
The form is on line at the UTK website:     http://admissions.utk.edu/graduate/apply.shtml
