Certified teachers who are interested in adding an endorsement to their current Washington certificate through Washington State University (WSU) will need to complete a Self-Evaluation Endorsement Worksheet.

Choose the worksheet for your chosen endorsement area. On the worksheet, list the courses you have taken that you believe are equivalent to WSU’s requirements. If possible, submit a course description (from the college/university catalog), a syllabus, or additional documentation.

• Bilingual Education Self-Evaluation Worksheet
• English Language Learners (ELL) Self-Evaluation Worksheet
• Middle Level Math Self-Evaluation Worksheet
• Middle Level Science Self-Evaluation Worksheet
• Special Education Self-Evaluation Worksheet

Once you have completed the Self-Evaluation Worksheet, you will submit it with your Add-On Endorsement application to Niamh O’Leary (niamh.oleary@wsu.edu). A WSU representative will review your transcripts and determine if the courses you listed are acceptable.

If you disagree with the evaluation you will need to provide additional documentation from the college/university catalog or a syllabus for review.

All courses used for endorsement purposes must be completed at a regionally accredited college/university with a “C” (2.0) or higher. If you would like to take a required course from an institution other than WSU, you will need to receive WSU approval PRIOR to taking the course.
