FAQs 

• Do I submit Fingerprint results to CORE? 

• • Answer: No, do NOT submit fingerprint results to CORE. CastleBranch is still the platform for Background Checks, Drug Screens and Fingerprints. Please log into your CastleBranch account to submit the required documents. 

• I am a student preparing for a clinical/fieldwork rotation. What if I have already entered part of my documents or medical records to Exxat? Do I have to re-upload all of those to CORE?
  • Answer: Yes, if you have an upcoming clinical rotation, you will need to upload copies of any documents in the Exxat "Required Documents" folder to the "Student Requirement" section in CORE. Please complete this task by the end of the Spring 2023 term.

• I am an incoming student. Where do I upload my documents? 

• • Answer: You will not get an Exxat invitation. Please look for the email from CORE in early March. Submit your documents to CORE once you have set up your account.
