(a) A licensee may update a sub-doctoral degree listed
on his or her official license to a doctoral degree if the licensee
submits a complete application and transcript, pays the required fee,
and provides any other information or supportive documentation deemed
relevant by the Council.
(b) Licensees must submit an official transcript in
accordance with §882.2 of this chapter indicating the date the
doctoral degree was awarded or conferred. Foreign doctoral degrees
must be evaluated in accordance with §882.11 of this chapter.
(c) A doctoral degree must meet the minimum degree
requirements for the applicable license.
(d) An application to update the degree on a license
is not an application for licensure, and therefore is not subject
to any appeal or review under §882.3 of this chapter or Chapter
2001 of the Government Code. Further, the staff review and processing
of an application under this rule is not subject to the processing
times referenced in §882.9 of this chapter.
