General Partnership Criteria

The following general partnership criteria applies to all off-campus academic learning partnerships with the California State University (CSU). Additional program criteria may apply and is indicated in the program section. Please review the criteria and complete the acknowledgment statement.

  • Provide student supervision.
  • Identify activities or work that may pose a health or safety risk. In the event that additional unforeseen risks become apparent, the organization must communicate in a timely manner all risk-related concerns to the CSU.
  • Your organization may be required by California law or elect to obtain a student's fingerprints and submit them to the Department of Justice, and/or the Federal Bureau of Investigation, for a criminal background check. If required or elected, the organization is responsibility to:
    • determine whether such fingerprinting is required;
    • inform students on how fingerprints will be obtained;
    • obtain criminal background clearance from the appropriate agency; and,
    • advise students regarding the cost of fingerprinting/background clearance and who will be responsible for covering that cost.
