Mandatory Professional Licensing Disclosure

The programs at Medgar Evers College’s Department of Nursing in the School of Science and Allied Health are registered by the New York State Education Department and thus meet the educational requirements for licensure/certification for New York State. Through a reasonable faith effort and for the purpose of complying with the Federal Regulations’ amendment (CFR 668) effective July 1, 2024, we have determined that the programs meet the educational requirements for licensure/certification in New York.

It is important to note that Medgar Evers College’s Department of Nursing in the School of Science and Allied Health is not the licensure authority in the United States and cannot assess whether an individual candidate will be issued a license in states outside of New York. Instead, it is incumbent on each candidate to contact the licensure/certification authority in the applicable state for any further guidance on the licensure/certification requirements and application processes. Click here for a list of state licensure/certification authorities and their contact information.

Federal regulations require institutions delivering courses by distance education to provide students or prospective students with contact information for filing complaints with the state approval or licensing entity. For students from State Authorization Reciprocity Agreement (SARA) participating states, please see State Regulations and Restrictions Complaint Resolution.
