Discipline Verification (Background Checks)

Discipline Verification (Background Checks)

Conduct records are educational records protected by FERPA. As such, the Dean of Student’s Office does not share information regarding conduct records with anyone outside of TCU without a student’s written consent, except in certain limited circumstances.

If you are applying to graduate school or a study abroad program, you may be informed that you need to have a Dean’s Verification form completed. If your school has provided a form for completion, please sign the form in the appropriate location and deliver it to the Dean of Student’s Office. You may deliver it by e-mail to deanofstudents@tcu.edu or dropping it off in our office located in The Harrison, Suite 1200.

You may have concerns about what impact your disciplinary record may have on your application. The most important thing for you to do is to honestly and accurately respond to the questions posed to you on the application.

If you are unsure of how to answer the questions, you may contact the Dean of Student’s Office at (817) 257-7926.
