State Authorization (NC-SARA) - CU Denver
The University of Colorado Denver (CU Denver) and the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus (CU Anschutz) is a two-campus consolidated entity accredited by the Higher Learning Commission (HLC) and is known by its authorized name, the University of Colorado Denver (the “University”) and by its working name, the University of Colorado Denver | Anschutz Medical Campus.
The University is a member of the National Council for State Authorization Reciprocity Agreements (NC-SARA). The University is authorized to provide distance education, including online classes, continuing education opportunities, field trip experiences, and “experiential” activities to students located in other states that participate in NC-SARA.
While the University is currently authorized or exempt from seeking state authorizations across the United States, this process is dynamic and subject to change. This website will be periodically updated with information about professional licensure and policies to support your education.
Students should check the State Authorization and Professional Licensure material before registering for classes each session for the most up-to-date information.
