Students interested in this program need to apply. Acceptance is competitive and is not guaranteed. A criminal background check is required for admission to the academy. See the North Central Criminal Justice Coordinator for more information. To complete this program within two years, a student will need to attend summer sessions. The second half of the program is completed at Northwestern Michigan College in Traverse City.
