FAQs
- I have a college degree from outside of the U.S. Can this be used as a waiver for the U.S. high school diploma or U.S. GED?
  
  NO – Only a degree from a U.S. accredited college can be used as a waiver for this requirement.
- I received a diploma or GED from a country OUTSIDE of the U.S., but earned a college degree from a U.S. accredited college. Do I meet the U.S. Diploma/U.S.GED requirement?
  
  YES – Please check the box; a college degree earned from a U.S. accredited college/university can be used as a waiver for the U.S. diploma/U.S. GED requirement.
- If certain crimes such as burglary are on the rise, why do police use their limited resources on traffic violations or to provide security at parties and special events?
  
  Officers on patrol are encouraged to proactively address issues in their assigned districts when they are not responding to a call for service. The Police Department also has a Traffic Enforcement Unit (TEU) which is deployed to areas with patterns of traffic collisions and violations. While the TEU does operate on a cost recovery model, patrol officers do not have any quotas for the number of tickets to issue.
  
  In addition, an on-duty officer may direct traffic if a traffic signal is not in service or to redirect traffic at the scene of an accident or crime. This is done to maintain the safety of drivers, pedestrians and others on the roadways. However, police officers that you see directing traffic or providing security may actually be working secondary employment and are considered off-duty.
