About This Program

The Reading Endorsement Preparation non-degree program prepares students to obtain the Ohio K-12 Reading endorsement. Completion of the coursework is a prerequisite to being recommended by Kent State University for this endorsement; and endorsements are granted by the Ohio Department of Education.

This program does not culminate in a master's degree. Students interested in a master's degree at Kent State must be fully admitted into and complete the requirements for the master's program, in addition to courses that are prescribed here for licensure.
