General Services

The following services provide support for SLCC students enrolled in any class at the College. All resources are provided free-of-charge. Ask your instructor about discipline-specific learning support and tutoring services.

Out-of-State Licensure

A few of SLCC’s programs lead to professional licensure. Individual states can have unique licensure requirements, independent of SLCC graduation requirements. Individual states may require additional certification exams, additional coursework, citizenship or legal resident status, criminal background checks, or other requirements before licensure is granted. We recommend that SLCC students review the licensure requirements for the states they may be considering for future work locations. We have made a good-faith effort to collect state licensure requirements for the SLCC programs of study that lead to professional licensure. You can view additional information about state licensure requirements on our Professional Licensure webpage Links to an external site..
