Understanding How to Navigate the Two Step Licensure Process

 

Step One

Pre-Licensure

We will check to see if the documents you were initially required to submit have arrived. No analysis is done of the document content.

This is important: Although you have a one year application period you should work hard to get out of Pre-Licensure as soon as possible so that your application will be reviewed. Some applicants wait until the end of the year to begin submitting documents. If your application period expires you will have to pay a new application fee!

 

Step Two

Licensure

Your application has been assigned to a licensure analyst who will review your documents. Most applicants will be asked to provide additional documents at this point. That’s why it’s important that you get out of Pre-Licensure quickly!
