Degree Programs for Licensure

Select a School from the list below. Once expanded, you’ll see a list of available licensure programs. Click on any program name to learn more about it.

Candidates must complete the degree, program, and/or coursework their chosen state requires. States also have licensing requirements beyond a program’s graduation requirements, including post-master’s supervised clinical experience, examination(s), background check, and application for a license. Professional licensure requirements vary by state. If you are considering an academic program that leads to professional licensure, we recommend you contact the appropriate licensing agency in your home state for information and guidance before starting a program outside your state.
