Professional Licensure Disclosure

Federal regulations require Northeastern University to disclose information to its students enrolled in any programs that the university offers that may lead to professional licensure. This disclosure is strictly limited to the university’s determination of whether each of these programs, if successfully completed, would be sufficient to meet the educational licensure or certification requirements in a state or U.S. territory to be eligible to pursue licensure. Northeastern is required to provide students with these written disclosures, regardless of if a student is interested in pursuing professional licensure. For every program listed, an entry in the table below is provided for each U.S. state and territory. When available, the name of the state or territory will be linked to its board or licensing agency. The “Eligible” column specifies with a “Yes” or “No” if the program satisfies licensing requirements for that state or territory. Please consult the “Notes” column when appropriate.

Please also consult the university’s “Student Location Policy” for information on how Northeastern determines residency at the time of admissions application, notifies students of program eligibility per their residency location, and requirements for matriculated students on keeping their address current.
