ADMISSION PROCEDURES & POLICIES
Application Requirements
Students must be 18* years of age. (*With permission of a parent, and a pre-acceptance interview, we consider students 16 or 17 years of age). Prospective students are required to:
1) Complete and sign all application forms
2) Submit application with application fee and deposit in amount currently required by the Academy.
3) Have an interview (in person or by telephone) with a representative of the Academy

Notification of acceptance status
Once these three requirements have been met, the Academy will assess the student’s application and make a determination regarding acceptance for admission. Applicants will be notified of the status of their acceptance by email and/or certified mail. The Academy reserves the right to reject an applicant for any reason.
Re-admission
Students who withdraw from the program for any reason may submit an updated application for re-admission along with a new application fee and other required information. Students applying for re-admission must have a record of their previous transcript, which will be evaluated to determine which course components have been successfully completed. Tuition fees will be assessed on an individual basis in the event of re-admission.
GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS FOR CERTIFICATION
Students must maintain a 2.0 GPA for all units and pass both an oral exam as well as practical testing of their skills to receive certification.

CANCELLATION & REFUND POLICY
When you register for the program you are reserving Academy resources, and we assume you will participate in the program. It is our sincere hope that students will not withdraw once they have been accepted into the program, but in the event of unforeseen circumstances, our policy includes the following schedule regarding cancellations and refunds as per NH State Statutes. Here's the small print:

Pos 1111.03 Full Refund.
The Academy provides for a full refund of all money paid by the student as stated in NH State Law
(a) The applicant or student cancels enrollment within 3 business days
(b) The student did not meet the provisions of Pos 1104.01
(c) The school procured the student's enrollment as the result of any false representations in the written materials used by the school or in oral representations made by or on behalf of the school
 
Pos 1111.05 Partial refunds.
(a) A student who withdraws or is dismissed after the period of time identified under Pos 1111.03(a) has passed, but before completing 50% of the potential units of instruction in the current time period, shall be entitled to a pro rata refund, as calculated below, less any amounts owed by the student for the current time period, less a one-time application fee not exceeding $500 or 20% of the program tuition, whichever is less.
 
(b) Pro rata refund shall be the ratio of the number of units remaining after the last unit completed by the student to the total number of units in the time period, rounded downward to the nearest 10 percent. Pro rata refund is the resulting percent applied to the total tuition and other required costs paid by the student for the current time period.
 
(c) All efforts shall be made to refund prepaid amounts for books, supplies and other charges unless the student has consumed or used those items and they can no longer be used or sold to new students, or returned by the school to the supplier.
 
(d) No refund shall be required for any student who withdraws or is dismissed after completing 50% of the potential units of instruction in the current time period unless a student withdraws due to mitigating circumstances, in which case refunds shall be calculated based on the pro rata method described in Pos 1111.05 (a).
 
(e) The 50 percent completion limitation does not apply in cases where the student cannot complete the program due to action taken by the school. Examples of school’s action shall include school closing or bankruptcy, or cancellation of the program. In these and similar situations, refunds and fees shall be based on the pro rata method described in Pos 1111.05 (a) for up to 100 percent of the tuition paid.
 
Pos 1111.06 Timely Refunds Payments.
Refunds shall be paid within 30 days after the effective date of termination.
 
Pos 1111.07 Good Faith Effort.
A school shall be considered to have made a good faith refund effort to make a refund, if the student's file contains evidence of the following attempts:
(a) Certified mail to student's last known address;
(b) Certified mail to the student's permanent address; and
(c) Certified mail to the address of the student's parent or listed next of kin, if different from the permanent address.
 
Pos 1111.08 Notice of Withdrawal.
(a) A school shall require that notice of withdrawal be in writing, but shall not require a specific manner of delivery.
(b) The school shall honor any valid notice of withdrawal given, reimburse the student any refund amount due, and arrange for a termination of the student's obligation to pay any sum in excess of that permitted under the refund standards.
(c) All schools shall have a constructive notice of an intention to withdraw policy.
 
Exceptions: 100% refunds (including the $250 application fee) are provided to students should the program be cancelled. Refunds other than amounts listed in the policy above may be given when there is an Academy error, or for medical issues or family emergencies. Complete the Refund Request Form available from the Registrar. Documentation will be required. Requests for exceptions must be received in a timely manner.
