(c) An applicant for licensure as a speech/language pathologist who has received a degree from a foreign school, college or university, shall have received a master's degree, or its equivalent, or a doctoral degree, or its equivalent, and shall submit a certified copy of that applicant's school, college or university record for evaluation. An applicant for licensure as an audiologist, who has received a degree from a foreign school, college or university, shall have received a doctoral degree or its equivalent, and shall submit a certified copy of that applicant's school, college or university record for evaluation. Where an applicant for licensure as an audiologist has submitted an application prior to July 10, 2009, the applicant shall have received at least a master's degree, or its equivalent.
(d) In the event that a disciplinary proceeding or unresolved complaint is pending, the applicant shall not be licensed in this State until the proceeding or complaint has been resolved.
