Please Note the Following Before Beginning the K-12 Reading Endorsement Coursework
The state of Ohio requires a certain number of prerequisite hours in reading (9-12 depending on license) before one can begin the graduate K-12 endorsement coursework. Most recent education graduates in Ohio meet this 9-12 hour requirement. However, if you attended school in another state or graduated some time ago, you may not have the necessary hours in reading coursework. If you think this applies to you, please complete a verification form (DOC) and submit it with an unofficial copy of your transcript to Dr. Wilfong at lgkrug@kent.edu. Please note: This is not your formal Â鶹ÊÓƵ graduate application.
