About Applying for Licenses and Endorsements
Upon completion of all of your course requirements, the posting of your degree (if applicable) and earning passing scores on the appropriate licensure/endorsement examinations (if needed), all candidates must apply for their license through the Ohio State Board of Education (SBoE) application portal. First-time users of the ODE application portal must set up an OH|ID account and request a state ID.
The Ohio State Board of Education CORE User Manual provides step-by-step instructions for applying for a teaching credential through the SBoE application portal.
Wright State University will recommend a student for an Ohio educator license or endorsement to an Ohio educator license if the student successfully completes all licensure or endorsement standards and requirements for the desired credential and completes and submits his/her application for the credential using Ohio's CORE portal within 12 months of program completion. You can review the full policy here.
Additional Documentation Needed
If you are applying for one of the following licenses, you must provide additional documentation:
- Principal: Provide letter(s) on school letterhead documenting two years teaching under a provisional or professional teaching license at the age levels for which the principal license is sought.
- Superintendent: Provide letter(s) on school letterhead documenting three years working under a 5-Year Professional Principal license.
- Curriculum Instruction and Professional Development (CIPD): Provide letter(s) on school letterhead documenting two years of teaching under a professional teaching license.
