State Licensure and Certification Disclosures

Professional licensure and certification requirements vary from state to state. Although Molloy University has attempted to provide accurate and timely information by state, educational and other requirements may change. Additionally, many licensure boards require more than successful degree completion to obtain a license. These additional factors may include, but are not limited to, curriculum reviews by the licensing agency, criminal background checks, work experience, professional examinations, and additional training. Therefore, we encourage students to contact the appropriate licensing board or agency where they will seek licensure to familiarize themselves with the state educational and other licensing requirements for the profession or occupation in which they are interested.

Students should visit the Professional Licensure Directory of the National Council of State Authorization of Reciprocity Agreements (NC-SARA).

Nursing: National Council of State Boards of Nursing; see the Licensure Guidance page
Speech language pathology: American Speech-Language Hearing Association
Respiratory care: American Association for Respiratory Care
Nuclear medicine technology: Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging
Cardiovascular technology: Society of Diagnostic Medical Sonography and American Society of Echocardiography
