Criminal Background Checks
The Human Services Department at ACC does not conduct criminal background checks on students. However, most agencies in which are students volunteer or complete their internships do require criminal background checks.
If you have a criminal history, please discuss this with a faculty member in our department so that we may properly advise you as to any limitations this may cause in placements. Some past criminal convictions may impact the ability to be placed in fieldwork, internship, or employment.
