Apply for Licensure
Applicants can submit their application for licensure to the Board either once education requirements have been met or up to 90 days prior to meeting the education requirements. New graduates are encouraged to submit their applications as soon as possible (but not earlier than the 90-day time period) to allow the Board ample time to process the application.
The application packet provides an overview of the application process, instructions, all required forms, and a final check off list. Please be sure to read through the entire packet to ensure you have completed all necessary steps and requirements.
Once your Application for Licensure Packet is completed, please mail it to:
