Rule 3358:5-7-14 | Student location policy.
(A) Clark state college is committed to providing each student with the maximum opportunity to develop and learn. As such, this policy establishes Clark states commitment to and process for establishing and responding to student location as related to professional licensure and certification in states and territories outside of Ohio, Code of Federal Regulations, CFR 668.43, section (a)(5)(v) and section (b).
(B) Clark state is a member of the national council for state authorization reciprocity agreement (NC-SARA) which allows us to provide distance learning programs (both online and in the form of supervised field experiences) and coursework to residents of states other than Ohio. NC-SARA membership, however, does not grant reciprocity or exempt us from state professional licensing requirements. As a result, licensing requirements in Ohio may not be recognized as sufficient to obtain a license in any other state.
(C) This policy applies to admissions, financial aid, records and registration, and faculty with oversight in academic departments that offer educational programs leading to professional licensure or faculty or staff who advertise programs as meeting specific professional licensure or certification requirements and all students.
(D) Definitions:
(1) Student location: a students location shall be defined as the place in which the student is currently living or physically located (e.g. current address) at the time of enrollment in a program. Student location will be determined by the active local address in the student information system. Students may update their address in self-service.
(2) Programs leading to required initial professional licensure or certification: academic programs designed for or marketed as fulfilling the purpose of preparing graduates to meet the educational requirements for initial professional licensure or certification requirements of a state board. Identified professional licensure programs currently available at Clark state include early childhood education, medical assisting, medical laboratory technology, paramedic, physical therapist assistant, practical nursing, realtime/judicial reporting and broadcast caption/CART, registered nursing.
