College of Health Sciences students, accepted in one of our CHS Healthcare degree programs , must complete all necessary compliance requirements. There are a variety of items that students must submit and keep up to date to remain compliant throughout their enrollment at CHS.
Compliance Requirements (Background Checks, Drug Screens, Immunizations, and others)
All students in the College of Health Sciences are required to have full background checks and ten-panel drug screenings before beginning a CHS program. The college works with a company called CastleBranch to meet these requirements.
Students are also required to submit proof of immunizations and other program specific requirements.
