Our graduate schools are on point. I hear nothing but good things about the School of Education.
I would advise that you stay on the howard.edu website for admissions updates and for scholarship info.
I would have to concur. I hear the School of Education is pretty good as well. I'm no expert on it tho, so you can check the website for more info or to see if the programs that they have are suitable to your liking.

Thanks.
Yes I have looked on the School of Ed. website, and have started on my application already (yea I know it's pretty early, but I need to get a head start).
And to further solidify the fact that you are making an EXCELLENT decision by choosing to attend the MECCA:
School of Education Students Named 2007 Rockefeller Fellows
Howard University juniors Nicole Golden, Ayesha Jeter and Norma Rosa, have been awarded the 2007 Rockefeller Brothers Fund’s (RBF) Fellowships for Aspiring Teachers of Color. Each Fellow receives up to $22,100 over a five-year period that begins this summer and ends after completion of three years of public school teaching.
This year's selection process was unusually competitive said Dr. Leslie T. Fenwick, dean of the School of Education.
"Howard University and Brown University were the only institutions to have each of their applicants accepted as Fellows," Fenwick added. "I am proud that these young women -- who represent our best and brightest -- have chosen to pursue the high calling of teaching."
Fellows are required to complete a summer project between their junior and senior years. Planned jointly by Fellows and their mentors, the projects provide students with direct teaching experience with children or youth. Projects are presented at a summer workshop, which will be held this year from August 2-5 in the Washington, D.C. area.
Established in 1991, the Fellowships for Aspiring Teachers of Color initiative is a key component of the Charles E. Culpeper Human Advancement program. The Fellowship recognizes the vitally important role of education in human advancement and seeks to increase the number of highly qualified teachers of color in K-12 public education in the United States.
