Different states can have different requirements for a person to receive licensure or certification. To protect students from unnecessary educational expenses, federal regulations require programs that prepare students for licensure or certification to disclose the state(s) for which the program meets licensure or certification requirements. Please review Fredonia’s Professional Licensure Disclosures. A student may not enroll in one of these programs if their permanent address is outside of the State of New York UNLESS they also submit a Student Attestation Form. Please contact the chair or director of the department if you have any questions or concerns.
