Re Vera Background Check?

[madeanaccount]

Hey all, has anyone here (besides those that applied for MBAs) had to deal with Re Vera background checks before?

I just got into a school that was such a profound stretch that I still don't believe the acceptance wasn't a mistake. I am very lucky and very happy, and being a paranoiac, completely frenzied about it potentially being taken away. 

As such I have fixated upon the background check. Has anyone undergone this? What do they check? What if I, for example, have a slightly different date for exiting a job than what a company might have on file? 

Somebody please tell me that I'm being stupid, thank you.

While I'm not entirely familiar with that particular background check, I've gotten several in order to work/intern at various state and federal agencies, as well as entering grad school. They're more concerned with potential ethical concerns: legal action against you, criminal history, that sort of thing. In terms of work history, I would imagine that would fall more in line with checking your references and I don't think it would be seen as a big deal unless the dates are vastly different, at which point it may bring up confusion more than anything else.

Thanks, very helpful
