Fingerprinting Process
Instructions
It is a requirement for ALL students who enroll in the Associate
Degree of Applied Science (ADN) Nursing Program at Aims Community
College to be fingerprinted.
The Fingerprint Investigation goes back ninety-nine
(99) years and is valid for seven (7) years. Results
are kept in a confidential locked cabinet in the
Nursing Department.
The process for obtaining your Fingerprint Report
is as follows: Please read and follow directions
completely.
- Access the dedicated
Aims Community College Allied Health Programs website
at www.aimscx.com.
a. Click on “Place Order” and select
Package #2, FBI Fingerprint Record Check.
b. Fax in the “Disclosure
and Release” form
as indicated in the written instructions.
c. Choose the appropriate method of payment.
- American DataBank will send a package of materials
via regular mail that includes:
a. the instruction sheet presented to the sheriff’s
department
b. the fingerprint card
c. the FBI instruction sheet that must be signed
by the student
d. the “Authorization
for Release of Information” page
that MUST be signed by the student and NOTARIZED.
- Fingerprinting must be done at a sheriff’s
department, (typically at the jail). Students must
bring:
a. a valid picture ID (driver’s license or
state ID)
b. cash or a credit card (the sheriff’s dept.
will charge a fingerprinting fee)
c. all package materials received from American
DataBank
Failure to bring any of the above items at the
time of the fingerprinting could result in being
turned away. It
is strongly recommended that students call the
sheriff’s
department FIRST to verify additional information
and/or fees required at the time of fingerprinting.
- The “Authorization
for Release of Information” page
must be notarized prior to sending in all package materials or
the package will be REJECTED by American DataBank and returned
to the student. The sheriff’s department
typically does NOT notarize the forms; students
MUST contact a banking institution or other facility
to have this form notarized.
- Once the above steps have been completed, ALL package materials MUST be returned to American
DataBank at:
American DataBank
910 16th Street, 5th Floor
Denver, Colorado 80202
After processing the fingerprint record, American
DataBank will send the results to the home school
listed on the package order. Please allow a minimum
of 8-12 weeks for the results to be processed and
logged.
Note: It is the student’s responsibility to contact American
DataBank at 800-200-0853 to verify that results have been sent
to Aims Community College as well as to request an electronic copy
sent for their personal records; this copy will be required as
part of the collection of materials presented to the Advising Department
to determine student’s eligibility for admission
into the Nursing Program. The Advising Department
is NOT responsible for the evaluation of the fingerprinting
results.
Any questions regarding the Fingerprinting Process
can be directed to American DataBank at 800-200-0853.
