Required Courses
19 credits, 616 clinical hours Public Professional Licensure Disclosure
Federal regulations require the University of Virginia to disclose whether its licensure-related degree programs meet or do not meet U.S. jurisdictions’ (states and territories) educational requirements for licensure (34 CFR 668.43(a)(5)). Furthermore, per 34 CFR 668.14(b)(32), UVA must, prior to a student’s enrollment into a licensure-related program, ensure the student plans to pursue licensure and employment in a jurisdiction in which the program meets that jurisdiction’s academic requirements. Please refer to the UVA’s Professional Licensure Program Disclosure Tool to either a.) determine if a UVA program meets or does not meet the educational requirements specified by the associated licensing board in a specific jurisdiction, or b.) view the status of all programs in a specific jurisdiction. Instructions for searching the Index are available on the Index page. Enrolled students who change their location to a different state or territory must notify UVA by contacting the University Registrar’s Office to update that information |
