That's so if you die while on the tanning bed they can ID you

I recently did a complete background check of my self and my wife (for a new business.) Even with the expedite fee ($75 each) it was less than $300 a piece.

That is pretty good John, so I guess I have come to the conclusion that DCA is gouging its students.

No! You think?? (I'm kidding Luc)

$350 for an IN HOUSE background check is definitely a profit center. Like everything else up there.

Can't blame them though - they are lining up to pay for it.

Two quotes come to mind.

"There's a sucker born every minute."

"A fool and his money are soon parted."

Michigan had a state-wide 9-11 knee-jerk-reaction law for a while requiring back-ground checks and such for all student pilots. Since been repealed. (AOPA helped with getting it off the books, BTW)

Sheesh, we pay $35 for a finger print kit, where did $350 come from!
