The University of Texas at Austin makes every effort to ensure state licensure or certification information is current; however, state requirements may change. If you are planning to pursue professional licensure or certification in a state other than Texas, it is strongly recommended that you contact the appropriate licensing entity in that state to seek information and guidance regarding licensure or certification requirements before beginning an academic program.
Contact Information: For more information on professional licensure requirements in the field, please contact Meera Rajagopalan in the School of Nursing’s Office of Student Services by emailing ss@nursing.utexas.edu or calling 512-232-4780 or visit UT Austin’s professional licensure disclosure page.
