FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION
Do Strayer University criminal justice programs qualify me
to become a police officer, Homeland Security employee, or
federal agent?
Strayer University’s criminal justice program by itself does
not guarantee employment in any criminal justice field. Many
criminal justice employers take into account the following
criteria when determining eligibility for employment: U.S.
citizenship, state residency, criminal background, physical
and psychological health, age, and prior military experience.
Students should consult their employer of interest for
appropriate hiring standards prior to beginning the program.
