Can you get your teacher certification in Pennsylvania if you have a DUI?
Does anyone know? My friend got a DUI about a year ago. She would now like to go back to school to become a teacher. Does anyone know if they'll let her with a DUI (driving under the influence)? Anyone know PA law? Thanks for your help! ...

I honestly don’t think that she can get a teaching degree in PA. I know that if you are in college and get an underage drinking charge and are going to become a teacher you are longer allowed to pursue that degree.(in pennsylvania) I’m not entirely sure so I would do some research. Go to lcb.state.pa.us and they have a bunch of info about drinking charges etc. Good Luck.
She may want to ask for some advice from a lawyer. A DUI however, is a pretty serious offense and especially for someone who wants to work in the educational system. But to be sure, she should get some legal advice. http://www.localpennsylvaniaattorneys.com/Category/Traffic-Law/
