Professional Certification Application and Renewal

Many of the College’s programs offer graduates use of a professional certification upon completion of a third-party examination. Graduates must apply for use of the certification and are required to satisfy renewal requirements every 2 years. Applications can be accessed via the student portal. Once reviewed, students will be notified via email the status of their application. Students are not eligible to use a certification until they have received formal approval of their application from the College for Financial Planning. In some instances, applications may require review by the College’s Registrar and/or Ethical Conduct Committee, which may result in extended wait times before a decision is made.
