OFFICIAL ADMISSIONS PROCESS

Begin Your Academy Admissions

Every new student starts here. Pay the $25 application fee, then complete your Arrest Disclosure and Criminal Consent. An authorized Academy staff member reviews your submitted information and background internally and manually determines the next step — admission is never automatic, and paying the fee does not guarantee admission.

Selected program:24-Hour Basic Security Officer + 16-Hour Firearms Certification— Tuition $575 (paid separately after approval)

Already an Academy student? Returning students do not pay this fee.

Step 1

Select your training program

Choose your program and provide initial contact information so our admissions team can reach you.

Step 2

Pay the $25 application fee

Pay the non-refundable New Student Application Fee through the official checkout. This fee is separate from tuition and does not enroll you in coursework.

Complete required signed documents

Complete the official Arrest Disclosure and Criminal Consent documents through the Academy's approved signing systems.

Step 4

Academy staff background review

An authorized Academy staff member reviews your submitted information and background internally and manually determines the next step. You do not need to visit the Academy solely for this review.

Step 5

Onboarding & tuition

If approved, complete the New Student Onboarding process and pay the applicable tuition for your selected program.

Step 6

Receive training & course access

After all requirements are satisfied, receive your training instructions and applicable course access.

New Student Application Fee

The $25 New Student Application Fee begins the admissions/background-review process and is not tuition. After payment, you'll receive confirmation and be directed to complete your Arrest Disclosure and Criminal Consent documents. This fee does not enroll you in any course and does not guarantee admission, certification, licensing, or employment — it begins the staff review process.

Privacy: Sensitive criminal-history information is never sent through ordinary email or SMS. Disclosure and consent documents are stored as signed, retrievable records. Background eligibility is determined only by an authorized Academy staff member — never automatically. Payment of the $25 fee does not constitute approval, admission, certification, or employment.
