Fingerprinting - Non-Hofstra Students

Teacher certification candidates are required to create a TEACH account online through New York State's TEACH web site. After your account is created, apply for your fingerprinting application online (OSPRA 101) and pay the $91.50 processing fee. Be sure to print your receipt (or Payment voucher if you chose to pay with a money order). You must have an email address or access to an email address. You will then make an appointment by calling Stacy Zalewski in the Office of Educational Support Services at 516-463-5747. There is a fee of $20 (cash only, exact change) for the electronic fingerprinting. Bring this checklist to your appointment: Electronic Fingerprinting Instructions & Checklist.
