Background Check

CON requires 2 background checks. The FDLE background check is to be done during the application process. The CertifiedBackground.com check is done UPON ACCEPTANCE into the College of Nursing.


FDLE background check

This is a requirement for all employees, volunteers, and students having access to confidential client information and is required by many of the agencies where we place students for clinical experience. If you have previously had a background check done, you still have to complete this one. The College of Nursing does not have access to results provided by other agencies.

Obtain your FDLE packet by either coming to the CON Dean's office in HPA I Room 220 and picking it up from the front desk, or mailing us a 9x12 self-addressed stamped envelope with minimum $1 postage affixed for us to mail the packet to you.
