After you have completed your online order application American DataBank will mail you a FBI Fingerprint packet and will also register you with the PA Department of Public Welfare. Usually this packet is received within 3-5 business days of completing your online order application. Detailed instructions on how to complete this portion of your background check will be included in your packet as well as the FBI Fingerprint form that is needed to complete your FBI Fingerprint Record Search.
RN-BSN Online applicants performing their clinical experiences OUTSIDE of Pennsylvania are EXEMPT from the PA Child Abuse Clearance requirement.
If you have paid for your background check via money order, American DataBank will not mail your packet until this has been received.
Instructions On Completing Your FBI Fingerprinting
Your results will be sent to you by mail from the PA Department of Public Welfare. It may take around 2-3 weeks to receive them.
You are required to provide a copy of your results to American DataBank. American DataBank does NOT receive a copy from the Department of Public Welfare.
You may submit a copy of your results to 303-531-2055 or scan and email the results to studentdisclosure@americandatabank.com. If you do not send the results back to American DataBank, the compliance requirement will not be completed and you may lose the eligibility status in the program.
