How a privilege will work, who will qualify, what it will and will not replace, and what a dietitian practicing in more than one state should do in the meantime.

The two routes are not the same, and each board adds its own pieces: notarized forms, fingerprints, verifications from every state, a jurisprudence exam. Here is how endorsement works in practice.

Ohio, Florida, Georgia, Kansas and Maine each do it differently, with different expiration dates, renewal limits and rules after a failed attempt.

What that means for RDNs inside and outside Texas, the two exams TDLR requires, the $108 application, renewal every two years and when the license is still worth getting.

Residents of non-member states, NDTRs and non-RD nutritionists fall outside it.
