Fingerprinting Service


The KU Police Department offers fingerprinting services to KU students, staff, and faculty.  Fingerprinting services are offered Monday through Friday from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm, based on availability.  We encourage calling ahead (785-864-5900) to ensure that personnel are available. We have the capabilities to do Live Scan fingerprints as well as ink fingerprints.

Beginning January 6, 2025, we will charge $15 for fingerprinting services. We accept credit cards or checks.

  • Valid government issued photo ID
  • Valid KU ID
  • Instructions provided by the requesting agency or organization
  • Fingerprint card(s) if provided by the agency or organization
  • Envelope with adequate postage if we are required to mail fingerprint card for you
