License Change for Out of State Applicants
License Change for Out of State Applicants
Effective July 1, 2011, the North Dakota 52nd Legislative Assembly amended the North Dakota Century Code 15.1-13-20 which allows new applicants who hold valid, current out of state licenses to apply for the North Dakota Other State Educator License (OSEL).
Please apply online using ND Teach.
If the applicant has held a valid out of state license less than eighteen months they would apply for the $70 two year OSEL. If the applicant has held a valid out of state license longer than eighteen months they would be eligible for the $175 five year OSEL.
Note: If the applicant does not hold a valid, current license from another state, they would apply for the Out of State Reciprocal License and would require a transcript analysis.
