Potential Ineligibility for License

Notice to Applicants and Enrolled Students of Potential Ineligibility for License

NOTICE: If you are applying to, or enrolled in, an educational program to prepare for issuance of an occupational license upon completion of your education, you may face potential ineligibility for the license if you have been convicted of a criminal offense. Other state and local restrictions or guidelines for occupational licenses may also determine eligibility of a person who has been convicted of an offense.

As a student, or an applicant of the university, with a reason to believe you may be ineligible for a license due to a conviction or deferred adjudication for a felony or misdemeanor offense, you have the right to request a criminal history evaluation letter regarding your eligibility from the licensing authority under TEXAS OCCUPATION CODE Section 53.102. 

Texas Occupation Code, Section 53.152  - Effective Sept.1, 2017
