Professional Licensure/Certification Disclosure

 
Federal law requires disclosure to applicants and students regarding professional licensure/certification and the programs of study at UWA. While licensure or certification may be available in your field of study, not all programs offered at UWA are not designed to lead to such licensure or certification upon graduation. The professional preparation you receive in our programs may still assist you in such pursuits; however, we are unable to confirm the specific licensure and certification requirements of each state, territory, or foreign entity in which professional credentialing may be possible. If you intend to pursue such credentialing in your state or elsewhere, we advise you to contact the applicable state credentialing authority to familiarize yourself with its specific requirements and determine if our programs meet its academic criteria.
