Due to varying requirements, UM is unable to confirm the RN licensure requirements of other states, territories, or foreign entities. If you intend to pursue such credentialing in a state other than Alabama or elsewhere, we advise you to contact the applicable credentialing authority to familiarize yourself with its specific requirements and determine if our program meets its eligibility criteria. You are welcome to contact the College of Health Professions Deans office with questions in this regard, and we will do our best to help you with career planning.
