Criteria for Admission are the conditions and advisories an applicant must meet or be told of before entering a program of training.
What the catalog says
The catalog states: “Agencies in which Alcohol and Drug Counseling Studies students may be placed for training often will not accept or hire recovering persons unless they have completed some minimum period (often two or more years) of continuous sobriety and are pursuing an appropriate program of recovery.”
It also notes: “Drug screening and/or health clearance/vaccination record may be required in the preparation for clinical outbound students in all programs. Results are maintained in a password protected environment.”
“Additional pre-employment qualifications such as acceptable criminal background check and driver’s record, may apply to some employers.”
Who it applies to
InterCoast Colleges’ catalog states this under “CRITERIA FOR ADMISSION” (pp. 9–15).
“Unless recovering students can qualify under these criteria, they may not be accepted by field placement agencies.”
