Further questions concerning certification issues may be directed to Undergraduate Evaluations or the Office of Clinical Experiences and Certification Processes. Individuals planning to pursue course work for a certificate should first complete the steps listed in PART 1 so that an initial evaluation for certification can be completed. The evaluation should be made early in the student's program in order to provide a list of deficiencies to be completed prior to the issuance of the certificate. A copy of the evaluation is sent to the student for use as a reference for all requirements. Allow up to four weeks for the Certification Office to process each initial evaluation.
Procedures are different for certification and for degree completion.
The forms submitted to the Certification Office are in addition to any required by the Graduate School and the department for your graduate degree. Refer all questions related to admission to the degree and registration for course work to the appropriate academic program or department. Refer all questions related to certification to the Certification Office. Keep this sheet to remind you of the sequence of steps to certification and check off the steps as each is completed.
