Criminal Background Checks & Drug Screening

Criminal background checks and drug screening are required for all students enrolled in clinical-based Programs at MCHP. Students will pay for the background checks and drug screening directly to the company performing these procedures. AHS and Pre-DMS students re-applying and/or returning to the program are required to update and submit a complete criminal background check. All student applicants’ final acceptance in the program shall be contingent upon satisfactory completion of a criminal background check.

If the background check reveals a relevant conviction, and/or the drug screening reveals the presence of illicit drugs, the student may be disqualified from enrollment.
