Graduate Nursing Licensure Requirements by State

Students, including prospective students, should review state licensure requirements for licensure as a nurse prior to applying to or enrolling in any of Regis College’s programs. Completion of a Regis College program does not guarantee eligibility for state licensure or receipt of a license. 

An indication is provided below regarding whether Regis College’s program meets or does not meet a state’s or territory's licensure requirements. Please be advised that you should determine whether the program will meet your state's or territory's licensure requirements prior to enrolling in such program. Students who may be considering a change in their residency while enrolled in a program should also determine whether the program meets the requirements of their new state or territory’s licensure requirements. This document is for information purposes only and cannot be relied upon as an official listing of state or territory licensure requirements.
