Professional Licensure Disclosure



NC-SARA seal of participationLeTourneau University participates in the State Authorization Reciprocity Agreements administered by NC-SARA.  This allows us to provide distance learning programs to residents of states other than Texas and establishes comparable national standards between member states, districts and territories. NC-SARA participation, however, does not grant reciprocity for state professional licensing requirements.
