We appreciate your interest in The University of Toledo and, in particular, obtaining initial teacher licensure in the State of Ohio.

The faculty in the Judith Herb College of Education Health Science and Human Service have designed master’s level programs for initial licensure. In general, the Licensure and Master’s Programs (LAMP) assume students already have baccalaureate degrees for programs that included much of the arts and science content courses required for licensure.

To begin the evaluation process for a master’s program leading to initial teacher licensure in one of these programs, you must:  Submit with this form all unofficial transcripts of higher education course work taken at other institutions, including transcripts of course work completed at UT prior to 1976.  If you attended UT after 1976, we can print the UT transcripts for you.  Submit with this form a copy of any teacher certifications you may hold or have held.

After the Office of Student Services receives this completed application and required documentation, your course work will be evaluated. Once evaluated, you will then be notified in writing of the course work you will need in order to be licensed, including all content course work. The letter you receive with the evaluation will also explain other program requirements, including those for the master’s degree beyond what is required for initial teacher licensure. Please note that application to Graduate School is a second required step, should you decide to pursue licensure. Admission to the LAMP (Licensure and Master’s Program) requires an overall undergraduate GPA of 2.7 (preferred 3.0) or higher and a 2.7 in licensure content as well as a separate application and interview. We hope this information is helpful to you in getting started toward teacher licensure.

I understand that this evaluation request cannot be completed unless I have met the conditions outlined above. This application is NOT an application for graduate school and does NOT insure admission to a graduate program. Admission to graduate school and beginning an alternative licensure program will require separate applications should you desire to proceed. A typed signature will be accepted.
