| Financial Policy |
| Students are expected to keep the financial
agreements made at enrollment. Students unable to meet the agreements should contact the
school immediately. Failure to keep financial arrangements agreed upon is grounds
for student termination by the school. Students who terminate (or are
terminated by the school) are subject to the refund policy (see below). A $32.50
service charge will be accessed if a check received as payment is returned by the bank
unpaid, for any reason. In the event that an agreed-upon payment is more than 4 days
late, a $10.00 late fee will be charged. A 1.5% per month interest charge will be
assessed accounts that are past-due. A $25.00 fee will be charged for
re-financing. In the event that an account balance becomes 60 days past due, the
school may turn the account over to a collection agency for assistance in collecting the
debt. The student will be responsible for payment of the collection fees/attorney
fees incurred by the school in the collection process, up to 35% of the balance due. |
| Refund Policy |
| Full Refund:
Students terminating and requesting a refund within 3 days of the date of the enrollment
agreement and initial payment may receive a full refund of all moneys paid.
Applicants who are not accepted for enrollment are entitled to receive a full
refund. Refunds for materials are subject to their return in "like-new"
condition within 30 days of purchase. There will be no refund allowed for
interactive materials purchased (e.g. CD-Roms). |
| Enrollment Fee: The
enrollment fee portion of the tuition guarantees a class seat in a particular class and is
therefore not refundable or transferable to another class except as noted above. The
enrollment fee is required upon registration and is included as part of the tuition
cost. The school, however, will not retain more than $150 of enrollment fee charges
if the student does not start training. |
| Partial Refund:
Students are responsible for all classes/programs they registered for, beginning with the
first class attended, and ending with the last class attended or made up. Students
who terminate after the course/program begins are responsible for a pro rata payment of
the tuition charges of classes/program they are responsible for, plus payment of the
enrollment fee, according to the following schedule: |
| 1. Students
terminating (after starting training) within one week of the starting date will be charged
10% of the contract tuition plus enrollment fee*, but no more than $350.00. |
| 2. Students
terminating after one week of the course/program start date, but within 25% of the
course/program, will be charged 25% tuition plus enrollment fee*. |
| 3. Students
terminating after 25% of the course/program, but within 50% of the' course/ program, will
be charged 50% tuition plus enrollment fee*. |
| 4. Students
terminating after 50% of the course/program will be charged full tuition and will not be
entitled to a refund. |
| * The school,
however, will not retain more than $150 of the enrollment fee. |
|
| Refund Terms: Students
requesting termination and refund must do so in writing, mailed certified mail to the
School's address. If the school is not notified in writing, a $25.00 service fee
will be charged. All refunds will be paid by check and mailed to the requested
address (or last address on file) within 30 days of receiving the request. Students
who terminate because of prolonged illness, accident, death in the family, or other
circumstances that make it impractical to complete the course, should request a
"special cases" settlement with the reasons for termination clearly stated. |
