Important: Before starting any practicum, you may need to complete a criminal background check and/or fingerprinting, as required by the State of Michigan. You’ll also need to provide proof of a negative TB (tuberculosis) test.
In some cases, you may also be asked to show proof that your immunizations are up to date — including vaccines for Influenza and COVID-19.
Please note:
- Failure to receive an acceptable criminal background/fingerprinting at any time, will result in dismissal from the program.
- Any costs related to background checks, fingerprinting, TB testing, or immunizations are your responsibility.
