Concerns, Issues or Complaints:
Anyone can bring a concern to the institution’s attention. A concern, issue or question is not a formal complaint but an effort to show something is a matter of interest or importance to someone, requiring clarification, special attention, or adjustment by the institution. A student issue form is available at the front desk, administrative or educator office. You can also download the student issue form here.
Anyone, student, teacher or interested party may file a complaint against the school. The complaint must be in writing to the school owner or directors. A complaint form is available at the front desk at both our campus locations. You can also click here to download the complaint form.
The complainant must outline the allegation or nature of complaint in detail. A school representative will meet with the complainant within 10 days of receipt of the written complaint. If the problem cannot be resolved after initial evaluation, the complaint will be forwarded to the school’s complaint committee, which is comprised of three members from the school (owner, directors, administrators, or instructors), members of the public, or members of the student body. The committee will meet within 21 days of receipt of complaint to review the allegations.
If additional information is required of the complainant, the committee will outline their need in a written request. If the committee completes the review, the group will act upon the allegations with an appropriate, agreed-upon solution.
A letter to the complainant will be sent within 15 days of the review that outlines the actions taken to rectify the situation, or information to show the allegations were false or incorrect. If the complainant wishes to pursue the matter further, contact the agencies below.

Before the school disburses Direct Loans (subsidized, unsubsidized, or Parent PLUS), regulations require that you complete an entrance counseling session.
The counseling session provides information about how to manage your student loans during and after your program, sample repayment terms, repayment schedules, and personal budgeting.
This part of the process can be done with the Admissions Office, Financial Aid Office or online at studentaid.gov.
