Entrance Requirements & Enrollments
Students applying for entrance will take a Wonderlyc multiple choice scholastic level test to determine scholastic level, which is given by the school at no charge.  Students must achieve 80% of the average score of high school graduates for entrance.  This testing requirement may be waived by the administrator because of good previous scholastic history.
Students with low scores on the scholastic level may be accepted, at the discretion of the administrator, for the Pro Audio Specialist program.  Applicants must agree to provisions of "Student Conduct and Probation" and "Financial Policy" in this catalog as a condition of acceptance.
Students applying for entrance to a program under 18 years of age will be admitted at the administrator's discretion with written permission from a parent or guardian.  Credit for previous training will shorten the program or reduce program fees accordingly, if documented.  The school reserves the right to evaluate previous training against course objectives and require a placement exam.  Enrollments will be accepted at any time.
Class Transfer or Re-Entrance
Students may transfer registration to a different class one time without additional fees if they apply and are accepted 14 days prior to class start (that they are transferring to).  A transfer application is required.
Any student who starts a recording course and fails to complete it, receives a non-passing grade, or who is dissatisfied with the results, may be re-enrolled one time upon meeting the financial requirements of the first course (full payment of fees) and a payment of 50% tuition for the re-entered course.  Students who fail to complete the course or program for medical reasons, death in the immediate family or schedule problems because of related employment, may re-enroll without payment of additional fees.
Students re-enrolling may attend all scheduled classes or those determined by the school as necessary because of grades or attendance in the original course. Re-enrolled students must meet the attendance requirements of the new class regardless of attendance on prior course. Grades earned on the re-entered course replace grades given on the original course in school records.  Graduates of any course who wish to re-enroll for review or updating may do so at half-price
Prior Knowledge & In-Field Credit
The Recording Institute of Detroit will grant full credit for any program  requisite when the student can demonstrate, though testing and evaluation or verified reports of experience, a prior knowledge or skill ability because of prior equivalent training and/or experience.  The school usually will charge a fee equal to 10-15% tuition for testing and evaluating of the skills necessary to bypass requisite classes in the program.
Students sometimes achieve placement and success in the field before completing all of the required program campus attendance and assignments. When this participation in field activities inhibits the student from completing a program, the Administration may, at his desecration, grant clock hour credit for field activities after RID training.  The Administrator will only grant in-field credit after the student has fully demonstrated achieving the graduate program skill levels during field experience of at least four times the length of bypassed clock-hour attendance that is normally required.
Tuition Financing
Entire course fees are payable in advance or tuition financing plans are available for qualified applicants.  A minimum payment of the enrollment fee (or 15% tuition, whichever is greater) must be paid for acceptance.  Annual Percentage Rate for tuition financing varies from 12% to 18% depending on the length of financing - contact the Admissions Department for details.
