Professional Licensure Disclosure

The programs offered at Wallace Community College Selma meet the educational prerequisites for professional licensure or certification within the state of Alabama. However, the College has not made a determination regarding whether these programs satisfy the licensure or certification requirements of any other state, U.S. Territory, or the District of Columbia.

Prospective and current students are strongly advised to contact the licensing entity in their intended state of practice to confirm all applicable licensure and certification requirements. Program-specific links are provided to facilitate this process.

Please be aware that while this information is accurate at the time of publication, licensure and certification requirements are subject to change due to state laws and regulations.

Wallace Community College Selma has a variety of procedures for dealing with student-related issues.  Students must follow the Student Complaint Process as outlined in the Wallace Community College Selma Catalog and Student Handbook.  If, after exhausting all available institutional processes, a student’s complaint remains unresolved, the student may appeal to the Alabama Community College System (ACCS) using the System’s official ACCS Student Complaint Form. If institutional procedures have been followed and the issue has not been resolved, then you may contact the State Portal entity to request its intervention.

Students Residing Outside of Alabama

If you are a student residing outside of our institution's home state and your complaint remains unresolved after following our internal procedures, you have the option to file a complaint through either your home state's SARA portal or the NC-SARA portal (www.nc-sara.org). Most of the United States, except California and certain territories, have participated in a reciprocity agreement facilitated by NC-SARA.
