| 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. |
