Foreign Applicants

If you have foreign credentials, you will need to obtain an evaluation of them that converts the foreign educational credentials to equivalent American semester credits and courses. The evaluation will need to specify the grade level for which you prepared as a teacher. It will also need to indicate the American degree equivalence of your foreign credentials.

We will require the original foreign credential evaluation report and copies of your foreign documents made from the originals by your regional superintendent. Click here for a list of approved evaluation sources.

*Foreign applicants must also submit ISBE form 73-91 and proof of employment eligibility.
