Licensure: Disclosures by Program

Licensure and Certification Disclosures

Specific St. Cloud State University programs have curricula that are designed to prepare students for application to acquire professional licensure or certification in Minnesota. At this time, St. Cloud State University is engaged in verifying whether licensure/certification programs meet the requirements in other states or U.S. protectorates. Due to US Department of Education regulations, any program not verified for state-specific licensure/certification must be identified as "does not meet." You may contact the program director, program advisor, or department chair of the program you are interested or enrolled in for more information. You may also want to contact the licensing board in the state you intend to pursue licensure.

Licensure and Certification status of programs is current as of Fall 2021. As programs continue meeting the licensure and certification needs of additional states, this webpage will be updated. For the most current information, please reach out to the Program Advisor or Department Office.
