NOTE: The Lynch School of Education does not require its students to take the Massachusetts Tests for Educator Licensure and does not make passing the MTEL a requirement for program completion. Those institutions that do require students to pass the MTEL in order to complete a program will have a "100%" pass rate, as all “program completers” will by definition have passed
