Which of the following is NOT a requirement to obtain a real estate license?

To obtain a real estate license, having a college degree is not a requirement in most states. The fundamental requirements typically include completing pre-licensing education, which provides candidates with the essential knowledge about real estate principles, practices, and laws. Additionally, candidates must pass a licensing exam that assesses their understanding of these subjects.

Residency can also play a role, as many states require license applicants to be residents of the state where they are seeking licensure, or at least be able to demonstrate a significant connection to the state. However, a college degree is generally not mandated, allowing individuals without a degree to pursue a career in real estate, provided they meet the other necessary qualifications. This makes the statement about the college degree being unnecessary correct.
