Students are responsible for completing the background application process, paying all fees and ensuring that a copy is submitted to the appropriate program director.

If there is a criminal history that cannot be cleared up prior to the start of the clinical, the student needs to apply to his/her respective professional boardfor licensure clearance. Students cannot begin or continue their studies until the background check process is satisfactorily completed.
