The student's acceptance will not be final until LCCC has received background check information from the reporting agency and the background check is clear of disqualifying offenses. For more information, please see the complete Health Sciences & Wellness School Policy. Certain criminal activities, as evidenced by a criminal background check, may also disqualify a student from clinical participation. Students are advised that the inability to gain clinical education experiences can result in the inability to meet program competencies. These circumstances may prevent acceptance into and/or progression through the program and may ultimately result in dismissal from the program.
