Licensure Programs & Disclosure Requirements
In compliance with federal regulations, Park University provides students with information about programs that are designed to lead to a professional or teaching licensure. The intention is to aid students in making informed decisions about their education and career path.
Park University licensure programs strive to maintain accurate and up-to-date information about the educational requirements for licensure in the United States. However, regulations are subject to change and varying interpretations. In addition to possible changes in educational requirements, licensure often includes additional requirements, such as specific examinations and additional training or practicum hours. It is highly recommended that students seek guidance from the appropriate licensing agency before beginning an academic program to ensure they know what is needed to obtain the license/certification/registration in the state in which they intend to practice and/or seek licensure.
The Council on Licensure, Enforcement, and Regulation maintains a listing by profession of licensing and regulatory boards in North America. This may be helpful for researching professional licensure or certification processes, requirements, and agency contact information. Please consult with your advisor or admissions representative for additional assistance.
Student Location
Park University determines the student location for purpose of licensure disclosures in the following manner: the address the student lists as the primary address when completing the admission application or when providing an updated address to Park University’s student information system during periods of enrollment. The student is responsible for notifying Park University of address changes.
In cases where a current address is requested but not provided, the student location will be considered the State of Missouri. Similarly, for students residing outside any U.S. state or territory, the student location will be considered the State of Missouri.
Public Disclosures
Park University licensure programs are required to indicate whether their program meets the educational requirements for licensure in certain U.S. states. Prospective students residing in a state in which educational requirements of licensure have not been affirmed, will not be eligible for federal financial aid for that program unless they intend to practice in a state where the program meets educational requirements. In these cases, the student must formally attest to this intent, in writing and provide it to their advisor or admissions representative.
Direct Disclosures to Students
The U.S. Department of Education requires Park University to disclose information directly to students based on their location or change in location. Relocation to another state during the course of your program may impact your ability to obtain licensure in a new state. Please communicate with your program director prior to relocating to explore your options.
