Professional Licensure and Certification Information

Walsh University programs that lead to professional licensure or certification are designed to meet the academic requirements in the State of Ohio.

Licensure rules vary by state and may change at any time. The table for each program shows whether it:

• Meets requirements in a state
• Does not meet requirements, or
• Has not yet been reviewed

If you plan to work in a state other than Ohio, or if you move during your program, you should:

1. Talk with your program director or advisor about possible additional requirements.
2. Check directly with that state’s licensing board for the most up-to-date information.

Please note:

• Licensure boards often require more than coursework, such as exams, background checks, or professional experience.
• Some states require board approval before you begin clinical or field placements.

Student Location for Licensure Purposes

• Students taking at least one in-person class at the Walsh campus are considered Ohio students.
• Fully online students are considered located in the state listed in their university records (housing, SEVIS, current address, or home address).

Review the information provided below to see if your program meets licensure requirements in your state.
