Program Licensure & Credentialing by State
Federal regulations require us to disclose whether our programs meet the educational requirements for professional licensure in every state and U.S. territory. Below, we have indicated whether our licensure programs meet each state's educational licensure requirements, do not meet them, or where a determination has yet to be made.
We recommend that students who intend to pursue licensure/credentialing review this information prior to applying.
