review & Complete steps below

1. APPLY

Make sure you have completed our application as a school or organization for the Global Seal of Biliteracy™.

2. VALIDATE FIRST LANGUAGE

Validate that candidates have met the award criteria for their first language. Please note for U.S. candidates, English is required to be one of your two languages in order to meet the Global Seal of Biliteracy™ criteria. The Global Seal of Biliteracy™ will require confirmation that applicants have met the Global Seal of Biliteracy™ requirements for English. Copies of first language test reports and/or transcripts are not required but must be available upon request. You will be asked to sign your name confirming that each candidate has met the first language requirements.

3. TEST SECOND LANGUAGE

Complete testing for candidates' second language. Once testing is completed and scores have been received, please fill out the Global Seal of Biliteracy Candidate Sheet. If a student qualifies in more than one language, add their name and 3rd language test information as a separate entry.

4. SUBMIT DOCUMENTS

Submit test scores and your completed Global Seal of Biliteracy Candidate Sheet below. Make sure to submit test scores* in either a PDF, PNG, or JPEG format and the Candidate Sheet as an Excel file. Other formats will not be accepted.

*Test scores must be digital scans or screenshots of the candidates' original score reports. They must include the candidate’s full name, language tested, score(s) in all applicable categories, and test date (or test year for AP test).
