Audiology & Speech-Language Pathology Interstate Compact
The ASLP Interstate Compact has been enacted in many states, but only a small number are currently issuing/accepting compact privileges via CompactConnect. Most member states are still pending operational implementation — verify per-state status before relying on compact privilege.
South Carolina has enacted the ASLP Compact but is not yet operationally issuing or accepting compact privileges. Until South Carolina completes implementation, you must apply for a South Carolina SLP license by endorsement — even if you hold an active compact license in another state. Verify current status with the South Carolina Board of Speech-Language Pathology before assuming compact privilege is available.
