In compliance with federal regulations, starting on July 1, 2024, any Northwest program designed to prepare students for professional licensure or certification must disclose whether the program meets or does not meet state licensure/certification requirements for every state and U.S. territory. The regulation is linked here: 34 CFR 668.14(b).
Requirements for licensure or certification differ in each state. There may be additional assessments required in other states to meet their licensure or certification requirements. In the case where additional coursework is needed for a student to meet their licensure or certification requirements within a state where Northwest programming does not meet that state’s requirements, Northwest works with each student individually to ensure those requirements are met through provision of additional coursework or whatever other needs may be present. Students are asked to review the requirements and engage with the certification offices and their advisor(s) to assist in understanding and fulfilling state licensure or certification requirements.
Distance education students who reside in a state where Northwest programming does not meet their state licensure or certification requirements have the ability to attest that they will seek employment in a state where the Northwest program meets state licensure or certification requirements. Students may also utilize this attestation form to remain enrolled in their program and work with their Northwest advisor and certification office to complete the requirements of their state. The attestation form is available upon request from the dean of each respective college in which the student is enrolled.
Note: All states required fingerprinting.
