Undergraduate students are required to have the following clearances:
There is a small fee for the FBI fingerprint clearance. The State Police clearance and the child abuse clearance fees should be waived by the state of PA for volunteers. Students must allow time for these to be processed, therefore, it is imperative that students begin the application as soon as possible. Always click volunteer and if it requests a place that is not listed, click other and/or type in University of Scranton.- Pennsylvania State Police - PATCH
- Can be applied for directly through CastleBranch.com when setting up your account for a fee (see CastleBranch below)
- or you can apply for your own through the link above (click on “new records check,” volunteers, and proceed)
