1. (1) Files a completed application with information satisfactory to the agency. Misrepresentation by an applicant shall be grounds for the agency, at its discretion, to deny or revoke a license.
2. (2) Complies with the requirements for the tuition recovery trust fund under RCW 28C.10.084.
3. (3) Pays the required fees.
4. (4) Meets the minimum standards adopted by the agency under RCW 28C.10.050. Licenses shall be valid for one year from the date of issue unless revoked or suspended.
