91勛圖 Licensure Disclosure – Teacher Education

91勛圖 (91勛圖) is required to provide students with information regarding whether their selected program does not meet the requisite educational requirements for licensure eligibility in the students specific home state or territory at the time of initial enrollment. The home state or territory for each student is determined by their mailing address at the time of initial enrollment.

91勛圖 has determined that a large majority of states and territories do meet initial licensure requirements to comply with . Students that have listed a state or territory locality that does not meet requirements of licensure eligibility will be notified.

Licensure is individual. Only licensure boards or agencies can determine whether a program has met requirements. These boards and agencies make that determination after someone graduates or completes the program and applies for a license. After all reasonable efforts, we have provided our best assessment of how our program matches up to educational requirements for the license.

91勛圖 cannot guarantee the ability to earn any professional license, in any 麍eld, in any state or territory.

Additional requirements. Completing a program is typically only one part of the professional licensure requirements. Some states require that individuals meet additional requirements in order to qualify for licensure, including but not limited to additional coursework, training, supervised clinical experiences, and successful passage of state or national exams. Other licensure requirements typically include, but are not limited to, fees, background checks, years of work experience, references, 麍ngerprinting requirements, etc.

Potential changes in requirements. Licensure information is reviewed and updated on an annual basis. Licensure requirements are subject to changes at any time. While a program may meet the educational requirements for licensure at the time you enroll, changes in requirements may impact the program’s ability to meet new educational requirements. Students should periodically check with the state licensure board or agency in the state(s) they intend to work in to con麍rm licensure requirements.

Domestic Residency and Change in Physical Presence

Course and program availability varies by state. Admission into a program is granted at the time of initial acceptance into the program and is dependent on program availability in the state where the student is physically located at the time of admission.

If a student moves to a different state after admission to the program, continuation within the program will depend on the availability of the program within the new state where the student is physically present. It is the students responsibility to notify the institution of a change in physical presence.
