CRIMINAL BACKGROUND CHECK
Have you ever been convicted of a felony or misdemeanor as an adult? Yes No
Has any governmental agency ever substantiated allegations made against you for physical, mental or emotional abuse or neglect, sexual abuse, or
exploitation of (1) a child, (2) a resident of an adult care home, medical care facility, psychiatric hospital or state institution for the mentally retarded, or
(3) an adult?
Yes No
If you answered yes to either of the above, please attach an explanation.
Answering “yes” does not automatically disqualify you for admission to the MSW program. However, depending on circumstances, it may affect your
ability to be placed in a field practicum which is necessary to complete the MSW program. Please contact the MSW Program Coordinator if you have
any questions.
I understand that prior convictions, diversions or pending charges may affect my ability to be placed in a field practicum which is necessary to complete
the MSW program. This means that while you may be admitted to the program, you may not be able to complete the degree if there is something in your
background that would prevent you from being placed in a field practicum. Many agencies require background checks. Some criminal charges may
affect your ability to be licensed in the State of Kansas.
I certify that the information on this completed application form is accurate and complete.
