CEC Student Clearance & Transportation

The Community Engagement Center offers support for students participating in Social Responsibility Praxis (SRX) courses and those participating in community engagement outside the classroom. 

 

Live Scan & TB Testing Clearance

Clearance is required usually for students working any protected populations such as: minors, elderly, people with disabilities, people who are incarcerated. If you are not working with these populations, your students will not need clearance. Typical clearance requirements include:

- Proof of a negative TB test result

-Live Scan (fingerprinting background check)

If you are required to be cleared by your partner organization, please follow these instructions. If for any reason you are unable to complete a Live Scan clearance, please contact CEC Program Coordinator, Tim Lewis immediately.


Complete a Live Scan Form:

If your partner is not listed above, you will need to get the form from them directly.

Students are required to fill out their personal information:
  • First name, last name, and middle name (if applicable)
  • Citizenship information
  • Social Security Number
  • Residence Information
  • Failure to complete all the information required may result in delays in clearance.

    Once this form is complete, students will take this form, along with their state-issued ID or passport, to anywhere that offers Live Scan services. Your results will be delivered to the agency indicated on your form (your partner organization).
