Licensing Disclosures

Effective July 1, 2024, federal regulation requires institutions of higher education to make a determination whether a Title IV eligible academic program that leads to professional licensure or certification meets the educational requirements for licensure/certification in the U.S. State where the institution is located and the U.S. States where “distance education” students are located at the time of initial enrollment in the program, as well as U.S. States where the program is advertised as meeting such requirements, and if applicable, the U.S. State where students attest they intend to be licensed/certified.

The baccalaureate, master's, doctoral, and advanced certificate programs at Stony Brook University School of Nursing are registered by the New York State Education Department and thus meet the educational requirements for licensure/certification for New York State. Through a good faith effort, and for the purpose of complying with the federal regulation, we have determined that baccalaureate, master's, doctoral, and advanced certificate programs at Stony Brook University School of Nursing meets the educational requirements for licensure/certification in the following U.S. States: New York; however, it is important to note that  Stony Brook University School of Nursing is not the licensure/certification authority in these U.S. States and cannot assess whether an individual candidate will be issued a license/certificate in these U.S. States and instead each individual candidate must contact the licensure/certification authority in the U.S. State in which they are seeking licensure/certification to obtain guidance on the application policies and procedures for licensure/certification.
