Each
Student receives notice of their progress at 25% of completion,
at 50% of completion, and at the end of the Course. Each
Student must maintain a passing grade of 70%, as a minimum,
at each level of progress. If a Student is at 70% or higher
at each level, they will be notified verbally.
If
a Student is at 69% or lower, they will be notified in
writing with a deficiency report. At that time, the Student
will be placed on academic probation until the next assessment
period. If the Student has not improved their grade by
the next assessment period, they will be suspended from
class. A Student who has been suspended will be allowed
to return the next time the course is offered, as space
is available.
If
a Student fails to complete any Course or Program, for
any reason, the maximum time allowed to return and complete
the missed requirements is 1.5 times the normal duration
of clock hours offered for
that Course or Program. As an example: Beauty Make-up
Artistry (day session) is normally 4 weeks long, therefore
a Student has a maximum of 6 weeks, in total, to complete
the course requirements to receive a passing grade; the
Master Program is normally 19 weeks long, therefore a
Student has a maximum of 27 weeks, in total, to complete
the program. If a Student fails to complete any Course
or Program within the 1.5 period of time, and the student
is not on a leave of absence, the incompletion shall be
converted to a failure at the end of the period.
The
exception to this policy shall only be for authorized
Leaves of Absence, approved by the School Director prior
to the period of the absence. At the end of the Leave
of Absence, maximum of one year, if the requirements are
not met for completion of the Course or Program, then
the leave shall expire and the incompletion will be converted
to a failure.
A
Student who returns to complete the Course or Program
for which they received an incomplete, shall meet all
the standards necessary to receive a passing grade. Upon
completion of the required standards, the Student shall
receive a Certificate or Diploma in accordance with their
original completion date.
