Police Information Check

A Police Information Check (PIC), formerly called a Criminal Record Check, is required for all students in TFE. Students are responsible for obtaining the PIC from their local police department and for the cost.

Students will be provided with an individualized letter at orientation to assist them in obtaining a PIC. If the student has a current PIC (within the last twelve months), a copy of that document will be accepted. A copy of the PIC (current or within twelve months) is to be uploaded to Populi by the student before the beginning of any course with a field component, or before any unit of TFE begins.
