Notes:

1. Contact information for each state licensing board or agency for each of the above professions can be found on each state licensing board or agency website provided in the above chart.
Prospective students should contact their state licensing board or agency to try to determine whether the program meets requirements for licensure.
Above is a list of programs that are designed for professional licensure along with information to comply with 34 §C.F.R. 668.43 and NC-SARA Policy Manual v. 22.1 § 5.2
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.  Felician University cannot guarantee the ability to earn any professional license, in any field, in any state or territory.
Additional requirements. Completing a program is typically only one part of the professional licensure requirements. Most states require that individuals meet additional requirements in order to qualify for licensure, including but not limited to additional coursework and 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, fingerprinting 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 could 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 confirm licensure requirements.
