Background Check Procedure for Out of State Students (processing time takes much longer)
Students residing out-of-state must obtain fingerprint cards for their state and federal webchecks. These cards may be downloaded from the Ohio BCI website. Carefully follow the directions on both fingerprinting cards and mail them to Ohio BCI for processing.
Visit the Ohio Attorney General Background Check Frequently Asked Questions webpage for answers to frequently asked questions regarding the BCI or how to obtain another copy of previous results.
