The University of Alabama offers degree programs that may lead to professional licensure, and licensure requirements vary from one profession to another and from state to state. If you are interested in obtaining professional licensure, please refer to the links below to confirm with the appropriate licensing body in the state where you intend to practice.<\/p>\n
Out-of-state applicants should determine by reviewing here<\/a> whether the University is authorized or accepting applications from the state where you are currently residing, or if for any special restrictions exist for your academic program of interest. Find more information here on the University’s specialized academic program accreditation<\/a>.<\/p>\n Licensure information on this site is reviewed and updated in the Spring of every year. While UA has made every effort to provide accurate information, state laws and regulations are subject to change at any time. A student who intends to pursue licensure outside of the state of Alabama should check with their state\u2019s licensing board for changes in requirements. Changes in educational requirements may impact the program’s ability to meet any new educational requirements for licensure in a student\u2019s home state. Enrolled and prospective students are strongly encouraged to contact their state\u2019s licensing body for information and guidance on licensure requirements for the state where they are located or where they plan to be licensed.<\/p>\n Licensing and authorization requirements vary by state, and relocating during the course of a program to another state may impact a student\u2019s course of study. Specifically, a student may not be able to continue in their chosen program, meet the eligibility requirements of the new state, and\/or receive financial aid for their program of study. Students considering relocating during the course of a program should contact the new state\u2019s licensure board to check for authorization and licensure eligibility requirements.<\/p>\n Alabama<\/strong> Alaska<\/strong> Arizona<\/strong> Arkansas<\/strong> California<\/strong> Colorado<\/strong> Connecticut<\/strong> Delaware<\/strong> District of Columbia<\/strong> Florida<\/strong> Georgia<\/strong> Hawaii<\/strong> Idaho<\/strong> Illinois<\/strong> Indiana<\/strong> Iowa<\/strong> Kansas<\/strong> Kentucky<\/strong> Louisiana<\/strong> Maine<\/strong> Maryland<\/strong> Massachusetts<\/strong> Michigan<\/strong> Minnesota<\/strong> Mississippi<\/strong> Missouri<\/strong> Montana<\/strong> Nebraska<\/strong> Nevada<\/strong> New Hampshire<\/strong> New Jersey<\/strong> New Mexico<\/strong> New York<\/strong> North Carolina<\/strong> North Dakota Oklahoma<\/strong> Oregon<\/strong> Pennsylvania<\/strong> Rhode Island<\/strong> South Carolina<\/strong> South Dakota<\/strong> Tennessee<\/strong> Texas<\/strong> Utah<\/strong> Vermont<\/strong> Virginia<\/strong> Washington<\/strong> West Virginia<\/strong> Wisconsin<\/strong> Wyoming<\/strong> The University of Alabama offers degree programs that may lead to professional licensure, and licensure requirements vary from one profession to another and from state to state.
