Professional Licensure General Disclosure Juris Doctor

In accordance with 34 C.F.R. §668.43, and in compliance with the requirements outlined in the State Authorization Reciprocity Agreements (SARA) Manual, DePaul University provides the following disclosure related to the educational requirements for professional licensure and certification1.

This disclosure is strictly limited to the University’s determination of whether its educational program, Juris Doctor, if successfully completed, would be sufficient to meet the educational licensure or certification requirements in a State for a licensed attorney.2 DePaul cannot provide verification of an individual’s ability to meet licensure or certification requirements unrelated to its educational programming.

This disclosure does not provide any guarantee that any particular state licensure or certification entity will approve or deny your application. Furthermore, this disclosure does not account for changes in state law or regulation that may affect your application for licensure and occur after this disclosure has been made. Enrolled students and prospective students are strongly encouraged to contact their State’s licensure entity using the links provided to review all licensure and certification requirements imposed by their state(s) of choice.

DePaul University has designed an educational program curriculum for a Juris Doctor, that if successfully completed is sufficient to meet the licensure and certification requirements for a licensed attorney in the following states3:

1 The terms related to attorney licensure, including licensure and certification, among others, vary by state and your state may use different terms. 2 This determination is based on the educational and curricular requirements of each state for licensure (ie, excluding any special, temporary licensure that may be granted) and does not imply that other requirements for licensure do not exist or have been determined to have been met by this program. Each student should verify their particular situation with their intended state’s licensing entity. 3 If the State does not regulate/license attorneys, DePaul’s program has been determined to be sufficient for these purposes.
