Back in 2011-12 I applied for their MAT in science education. I had received my BA from TESC in Math and science and had taken several education courses. Before I could formally be accepted in to the program I had to complete public speaking, american government, a health type credit and a fine art. I began fulfilling these requirements while learning more about the school. I found out they will help you but it is mostly up to you to find a school to do your student teaching, they will probably lead you toward the nearest large city even if it is 2 hours away. My circumstances changed and I decided the benefits did not justify the cost at my age.
I would definitely suggest you actually find someone to speak with who has completed the program. It sounds great but that student teaching is a BIG part of the program and if that doesn't work it is all wasted.
