Background Checks

The College of Central Florida conducts a LEVEL 2 background investigation for CF employees, CF volunteers, work study students, outside contractors working on campus, students completing an internship off campus and students applying to specific limited access programs such as law enforcement, health sciences or Early Childhood Education.

How to Request Background Check

Students can pay online through CF’s QuickAdmit portal.

  1. Select “Testing Center” from the list of testing catalogs.
  2. Click on “Background Check.”
  3. Choose the applicable option: standard background check for $55 or health care licensing for $79 (students applying for NCLEX or nursing license should choose health care licensing).
  4. Log in or create a new account to finalize payment.

Once you have paid, contact Cindy Baldwin by calling 352-854-2322, ext 1569, or emailing baldwinc@cf.edu to schedule your appointment for fingerprinting. A driver’s license or passport is required for identification purposes. Minors must have a parental signature on the Criminal Background Check form.

Students will receive the pink background investigation verification certificate when fingerprinting has been completed.
