    Professional Licensure and Certification

    CSU programs for professions that require licensure or certification are intended to prepare students for CA licensure and certification requirements. Admission into programs for professions that require licensure and certification does not guarantee that students will obtain a license or certificate. Licensure and certification requirements are set by agencies that are not controlled by or affiliated with the CSU and licensure and certification requirements can change at any time. The CSU has not determined whether its programs meet other states’ educational or professional requirements for licensure and certification. Students planning to pursue licensure or certification in other states are responsible for determining whether, if they complete a California State University program, they will meet their state’s requirements for licensure or certification. For more information, please go to http://www2.calstate.edu/csu-system/about-the-csu/accreditation
