Health Careers

Criminal Background Check

All Health Career students who have a clinical component to their educational process will be required to sumbit the necessary information in order for Illinois Central College to conduct a criminal background check. The student will be expected to read and sign the Informed Consent/Release for Criminal Background Investigation form upon admittance to the program.

Once the criminal background check is completed, the information will be kept confidential and only shared with clinical affiliates as requested.

A student may appeal the findings produced by this background check by completing the waiver form. All necessary steps will be taken by Illinois Central College to obtain clinical attendance approval. The outcome of the appeal may affect the ability to complete the chosen Health Career Program as indicated in the Informed Consent/Release for Criminal Background Investigation.
