State Authorization for Distance Education
The U.S. Department of Education’s regulation 34 CFR 600.9(c), State Authorization, requires that a higher education institution offering distance education in a state where it is not physically located meet individual state requirements for offering distance or correspondence education within that state and requires that institutions provide certain disclosures relating to state distance authorization status, consumer complaint information, refund policies, and program licensure requirements, among others. Click on any state below to review the required State Authorization regulation disclosures for that state.
Consequences of Moving States: Students are advised that Walden maintains a state authorization status in every state and relocation to another state may impact a student’s continued ability to remain enrolled in a program. In addition, for students enrolled in licensure-leading programs, relocation to another state may impact the student’s ability to obtain professional licensure, certification or other credential in another state. Students are advised to carefully review, evaluate and understand the requirements of the applicable licensure board in the state in which they intend to relocate. Walden cannot guarantee that students who relocate will be able to remain in their program or meet the requirements of state licensure boards.
Walden University is currently authorized, licensed, registered, exempt or not subject to approval in all states, except New York * and Rhode Island**. Some states have required statements which can be found by clicking on the respective state below.
*According to the New York State Education Department (NYSED), current New York students may continue Walden enrollment. Due to an interpretation by NYSED of a new NY law, Walden is unable to accept applications from residents of New York at this time while it seeks reconsideration from the state.
** The Rhode Island Office of Postsecondary Commission (RIOPC) has provided a temporary state authorization exemption which allows Rhode Island students to continue Walden enrollment. Due to regulatory requirements in Rhode Island, Walden is unable to accept applications from residents of Rhodes Island at this time.
State authorization status: Licensed

Adverse Action Information
To the best of Walden’s knowledge, no adverse actions taken by this state or Walden’s accreditor, the Higher Learning Commission, against the institution related to distance or correspondence education for the previous five calendar years.
Disclosure required by state:
The State of California established the Student Tuition Recovery Fund (STRF) to relieve or mitigate economic loss suffered by a student in an educational program at a qualifying institution, who is or was a California resident while enrolled, or was enrolled in a residency program, if the student enrolled in the institution, prepaid tuition, and suffered an economic loss.
Unless relieved of the obligation to do so, you must pay the state-imposed assessment for the Fund STRF, or it must be paid on your behalf, if you are a student in an educational program, who is a California resident, or are enrolled in a residency program, and prepay all or part of your tuition.
You are not eligible for protection from the STRF and you are not required to pay the STRF assessment if you are not a California resident, or are not enrolled in a residency program.
It is important that you keep copies of your enrollment agreement, financial aid documents, receipts, or any other information that documents the amount paid to the school. Questions regarding the STRF may be directed to the Bureau for Private Postsecondary Education, 2535 Capitol Oaks Drive, Suite 400, Sacramento, CA 95833, (916) 431-6959 or (888) 370-7589.
To be eligible for STRF, you must be a California resident or enrolled in a residency program, prepaid tuition, paid or deemed to have paid the STRF assessment, and suffered an economic loss as a result of any of the following:
-
The institution, a location of the institution, or an educational program offered by the institution was closed or discontinued, and you did not choose to participate in a teach-out plan approved by the Bureau or did not complete a chosen teach-out plan approved by the Bureau.
-

A student whose loan is revived by a loan holder or debt collector after a period of noncollection may, at any time, file a written application for recovery from the STRF for the debt that would have otherwise been eligible for recovery. If it has been more than four (4) years since the action or event that made the student eligible, the student must have filed a written application for recovery within the original four (4) year period, unless the period has been extended by another act of law.
However, no claim can be paid to any student without a social security number or a taxpayer identification number.

Disclosure required by state:
Walden University’s teacher preparation programs are approved by the Minnesota Professional Educator Licensing and Standards Board as leading to a Minnesota licensure. Walden is not enrolling Pennsylvania residents into the Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) program in Special Education, but Pennsylvania residents are eligible to enroll into Walden’s Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education program. The BS in Elementary Education program has not been reviewed by the Pennsylvania Department of Education, so candidates are instructed to apply for Pennsylvania certification as out-of-state graduates of a teacher preparation program.
