• Does the academy provide assistance with job placement?

  The student acknowledges that the school provides employment assistance services to help its students secure employment after graduation.

• What are your payment options?

  For all programs: The student must pay registration fees before starting school. Payments are due on the 1st of the month and are considered late if not received by the 5th. A late fee of $50 will be charged if a student has not paid by the 5th, except on school holidays longer than one day that may fall on a payment due date. In such cases, payment will be due by the end of the week following the school's return from the holiday. Payment terms are outlined in the Enrollment Agreement, which is contracted and signed by both the student and the school staff. These terms must be followed exactly as contracted, and no partial payments will be accepted at any time. If a student falls more than two months behind on tuition payments at any point during their program, they will automatically be dropped. However, once tuition payments are current, they can re-enroll under the "re-entry" student status terms in the "Admissions Requirements" section. Before graduation, any remaining balance must be settled. If allowed funds are not paid to the school before graduation, the school reserves the right to withhold the student’s transcripts and/or Certificate of Completion. We accept payment in various forms, including cash, credit card, money order, cashier’s check, or personal check.
