    Education, Reading Endorsement Admission Requirements

    • Currently hold an Ohio teacher license*
    • Bachelor’s degree from a regionally accredited institution.
      • GPA of 3.0 or higher
    • Be currently teaching or have access to an academic classroom or similar setting
    • Meet all Ursuline Graduate School admission requirements
    • All candidates must meet all requirements for the Ohio 12-Hour Reading & Literacy Core prior to admission to the Reading Endorsement program. One separate course of at least three semester hours, or the equivalent, in the teaching of phonics in the context of reading, writing, and spelling is required per Ohio Administrative Code (http://codes.ohio.gov/orc/3319.24).

    State Regulation for Ohio Teachers

    Per the Ohio Administrative Code (OAC 3301-24-05), endorsements may only be added to a standard teaching license (standard = provisional, resident educator or professional license). This means that teachers currently holding an alternative resident educator license (non-standard) must advance to the professional license before they may pursue either an endorsement or the principal license.

    For more information on Ursuline's teaching endorsement program, please email Professor Mary Jo Cherry, ED, or call her at 440.646.8147.
