UCM is required to provide students pursuing a degree that will lead to professional licensure and are planning to practice outside of the state of Missouri with information on whether our degree program meets requirements for the state you may consider practicing in following graduation. If our program does not meet your state's requirements, we are required to collect a student attestation, a requirement by the Department of Education in accordance with Policy 34 CFR 668.14(b)(32). Until that process is completed, please review the listing below of UCM programs which may lead to professional licensure.
Out-of-state students who are interested in or are currently enrolled in UCM programs that require licensure need to be aware that if they choose to complete a degree through UCM, that their license will vary from state to state. It is a requirement that they are notified and acknowledge the policy in place per the U.S. Department of Education (Policy 34 CFR 668.14(b)(32)).
34 CFR 668.14(b)(32) requires all programs that prepare students for occupations requiring programmatic accreditation or State licensure to meet those requirements for all new program entrants (students) starting on July 1, 2024, for each State in which the student is located if they are not enrolled in face-to-face instruction or in a State in which a student attests they intend to seek employment. 34 CFR 668.43 requires disclosures related to whether a program meets the educational requirements for licensure or certification in a State.
