A fingerprint-based criminal background check and drug screening are required prior to supervised fieldwork. Leadership in aging studies may not be able to place students in supervised fieldwork if they have positive drug screen results or if the student has a criminal record. Therefore, the student may not be able to complete the leadership in aging studies program.
