No money will be accepted from student
until it is determined that all entry requisites have
been met. The registration fee and all money paid by
an applicant will be refunded if requested within (3)
days of signing an agreement. For veterans only, $15.00
of the registration fee will be prorated by hours attended
over total program hours. An enrollee may interrupt
or terminate training by submitting written statement
to the school's admission office. The tool kit, once
issued, is not subject to refund.
An applicant requesting termination
of training shall be charged on an exact prorate of
the portion of the course completed . The exact prorating
shall be determined of the ratio of the number of hours
of instruction completed by the students to the total
number of instruction hours in the course. When termination
occurs due to prolonged illness, death in the family,
or other special cases beyond the control of the student,
the school will adjust the refund policy to be fair
and equitable to both parties. The student's last day
of attendance shall be deemed the last date of termination.
Tuition refunds will be paid within 30 days or termination.

Applicants should inform the school
if they cannot begin training on their scheduled training
starting date. An applicant not requesting cancellation
by his scheduled starting date will be considered a
student only if he begins training. A class could be
cancelled for acts of nature, full enrollment or insufficient
enrolment.
If this occurs, a student may receive
a full refund or apply all money paid to the next starting
class. All money paid by applicant will be refunded
within three days of the visit to the school.

The most recent graduation and placement
rates reported to the Accrediting Commission of Career

Many students take a leave of absence
for health or family reasons and do not graduate in

[top]

completed within 10 months, (Normal frame time in 2009)

additional days after 10 months, and
54 (100%) all of the graduates had completed the program
by the 15 month school’s maximum frame time.

The median Federal Student Loan Debt
for students who graduated between July 1, 2010 and
June 30, 2011 was $5216.00.
The school does not offer private loans
that must be paid after a student graduates. The school
does offer a tuition payment plan that includes installments
prorated to assure that the student has completely paid
for the entire program before the last day of school.
Students must be paid in full to receive their graduation
records. When a student drops or is expelled, federal
financial aid received must be prorated and the unearned
grants or loans must be paid back to the government
using required government calculations. If a loan was
accepted, part of the loan may be kept according to
the calculations and must be paid back by the student.
Students who do not graduate must also pay the school
for any remaining school balance: tool kit cost and
earned tuition to date left.
