ADMISSIONS POLICY
It is the policy of the California Institute of Locksmithing, to admit any person who has the ability to benefit from our program. Locksmithing is primarily a "hands-on" trade and although the necessity to read, write or understand English is highly recommended, the school will not deny admission solely based upon an applicant's inability to read, write or speak English or any other factor. All factors are considered to determine if an applicant has the ability to benefit from our program. The school will considered foreign students for admission, but provides no visa services to such students. Placement services may be limited to such students due to Federal and States laws.
Admitting procedures require the student to attend at least one of class at no cost and pass our Kwikset mechanical test and/or an ATB approved test to show an ability to benefit or provide documentation of G.E.D or high school diploma.
The locksmithing program is designed to prepare the student to obtain an entry-level locksmithing position and locksmithing license issued by the state of California. Foreign students and students intending to obtain a license from another state, country or province need to consider any legal impediments that may be applicable to them. The school gives out no legal advice, and makes no representations regarding a student’s legal ability to work in a given locale after graduation. It is suggested that if a potential student has questions in this regard that s/he consult with an attorney or other representative.

All absences and late arrivals are recorded and are available to prospective employers. Students who are absent or tardy must make up the course work under the supervision of the instructor before or after regularly scheduled class time. Failure to make up the course work due to tardiness will result in the student receiving a reduced grade for the lesson by one letter grade. A student must complete his or her program of study within a maximum time frame of one and one-half times the length of the program as defined in the enrollment agreement.
It is the responsibility of the student to telephone in advance to inform the school when they will be absent or late, just as it would be necessary to inform an employer. A student will be terminated for 10 days. Full time status is defined as the enrollment of at least 15 clock hours per week.
TARDY POLICY
Students are expected to attend all regularly scheduled classes. Students must be present and on time for all class sessions. Students who are not present and on time will be marked as TARDY. All tardiness will be calculated by minutes of class time lost and course work must be made up under the supervision of the instructor before or after regularly scheduled class time.

In accordance with Federal rules and regulations, the school will be closed on all Federal holidays. If any Federal holiday lands on a Thursday, the following Friday will also be closed. The following are some, but not necessarily all, observed Federal Holidays:
New Year's Labor Day
Martin Luther King Day Veteran's Day

LEAVES OF ABSENCE
The institution may grant no more than a single leave of absence to a student in any twelve-month period. A student must make a written request to be granted a leave of absence. The leave of absence must be approved by the school in writing. The leave of absence will involve no additional charges by the school to the student. A leave of absence may not exceed sixty days.
GRADING SYSTEM
The Institute utilizes the following grading system:
90% - 100% = A = 4.0 - Excellent
80% - 89% = B = 3.0 - Good
70% - 79% = C = 2.0 - Average
60% - 69% = D = 1.0 - Below Average
0% - 59% = F = 0.0 - Failing
Students are graded on objective Wonderlic tests based on class lectures and reading assignments and on the acquisition of practical demonstrable skills. Any assignment not submitted as due or any test missed will be graded a zero.
SATISFACTORY ACADEMIC PROGRESS
These standards of satisfactory academic progress have been established following guidelines adopted by the U.S. Department of Education. This institution expects its students to maintain satisfactory academic progress. In order to maintain satisfactory academic progress as established by this institution, a student must:
1. Maintain a cumulative academic grade point average of 2.00 on a 4.00 scale;
2. Complete his or her program of study within a maximum time frame of one and
one half times the length of the program as defined in the enrollment agreement;
3. Successfully complete at least 67% of the attempted hours at the end of each
month in order to complete the educational objective with the maximum time
frame;
4. Comply with satisfactory academic progress, which is divided into evaluation
periods and is assessed at the end of each of each month of training;
5. Show satisfactory academic progress standards, which are consistently applied to
all students within categories of students, e.g., full-time, part-time, and varying
programs established by the institution.
Students who withdraw from school will be evaluated on course work completed at the time of withdrawal. Students with incomplete course work will be issued an incomplete grade for the course work and will be deemed not making satisfactory progress. A grade of incomplete will revert to a failure if not completed/corrected within 135 days from the start date. The institution does not offer non-credit remedial course work. A student may repeat a module only once, with the higher grade earned being the grade of record.
Students who fail to maintain satisfactory academic progress during an evaluation period will be placed on probation for one month, If the student does not meet the satisfactory progress standards (A GPA or 2.0 or lower for 3 consecutive weeks) by the end of this period, they will be given a second notice of probation for an additional two week period. The student will remain eligible to receive student aid during these probationary periods.
Probationary students who fail to meet the satisfactory academic progress standards by the conclusion of the second probationary period, will be deemed to be not making satisfactory progress and will lose any remaining eligibility for student financial aid and may be terminated at the discretion of the institution. In the event students are allowed to continue instruction, aid eligibility will be reinstated only after the student has reestablished satisfactory academic progress in accordance with the standards stated above. Probationary students who meet the satisfactory academic progress standards by the end of the probationary period, will be removed from probation and will retain eligibility for Title IV aid.
Students who wish to appeal a determination that they are not making satisfactory academic progress must submit a written appeal to the financial aid committee. The Committee consists of the school director and the instructor. The letter should describe any circumstances that the student believes deserve special consideration, The committee will evaluate the appeal and inform the student of their decision in writing. Students may reestablish their eligibility for aid payments by correcting any deficiencies to the acceptable minimum levels of these standards.
STUDENT GRIEVANCE PROCEDURE
A copy of the Commission's Complaint Form is available at the school and may be obtained by contacting J. Corey Friedman, President or Sandra Bojorquez, Manager Administration. Persons seeking to resolve problems or complaints should first contact the instructor in charge. Requests for further action may be made to the Director or President of the school. Unresolved complaints may be directed to the Council for Private Postsecondary and Vocational Education, 400 R Street, 4th Floor, Sacramento, CA 95814, telephone (916) 445-3427.
GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS
To qualify for graduation and to be conferred a diploma, a student must successfully meet the skill requirements for the program and complete the described course of study with a minimum grade point average of 2.0 on a 4.0 scale; pass the final examination with a 2.0 or better grade; and discharge all financial obligations to the institute.
DISCLOSURE OF EDUCATIONAL RECORDS
All students have the right to inspect, review and/or challenge information in their educational records. These educational records are maintained by the Director in a locked fireproof file cabinet. No person or persons other than the student's instructor or other authorized staff members of California Institute of Locksmithing shall be allowed to view a student's records without the expressed written permission of the student. California Institute of Locksmithing shall maintain student records for a period no less than required by current law. Accrediting and governmental agencies, so empowered by federal law, may review student records periodically with their routine inspections of the Institution. California Institute of Locksmithing adheres to the Buckley Amendment. A transcript will be issued upon request.
The institute maintains a policy of placement assistance to all our graduates. Although the school cannot make job promises or guarantees, we attempt to place every graduate. We offer assistance with resume writing, interviewing techniques, job search techniques, arrangements interviews, and refresher classes. Graduates are welcome to return to the California Institute of Locksmithing for testing and refresher classes at any time. There is never a charge to California Institute of Locksmithing graduates for placement assistance, testing, or refresher training.

CANCELLATION POLICY - (WITHIN FIRST FIVE DAYS)
Students may cancel their enrollment agreement contract with school without any penalty or obligation by midnight of the date that is the first business day following the day of the first class. To cancel the contract for school, mail or deliver a signed and dated copy of the Cancellation Notice, or any other written notice, or send a telegram to: The California Institute of Locksmithing, 14719 1/2 Oxnard Street, Van Nuys, CA 91411, attention Corey Friedman.
If the student cancels, any payment the student has made and any negotiable instrument signed by the student shall be returned to the student within 10 days following the school's receipt of the student's Cancellation Notice.
If the school issued any equipment to the student, the student must return the equipment within 10 days of the date the student signed a Cancellation Notice. If the student does not return the equipment within this 10-day period, the school may keep an account out of what the student paid that equals the cost of equipment.
CANCELLATION POLICY - (AFTER FIRST FIVE DAYS)
Each student has the right to withdraw from a course of instruction at any time. Students who withdraw after the end of the cancellation period, have the right to receive a refund for the part of the course not taken, less the cost of un-returned equipment and less a registration fee not exceeding seventy-five dollars. The student shall have their refund calculated on a "pro-rata" basis depending on how many scheduled hours remain in the course at the time of the withdrawal.
REFUND POLICY
Refunds are calculated as follows: The refund shall be the amount the student paid for instruction multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of hours of instruction that the student has not yet received but for which the student has paid, and the denominator of which is the total number of hours of instruction for which the student has paid. Student who have not visited the school prior to starting class or have been rejected will receive a full refund without any deductions.
Example: A student is enrolled in a course that is 360 clock hours long and withdraws from class after fifteen days of instruction, which is scheduled to six hours per day. Therefore, 90 hours of the student's course have elapsed and 270 hours remain. If the total price is ,775.00, and the student has paid all fees, the refund would be calculated as follows:
I. Step One
Amount paid for instruction by student to date 4,775.00
Minus registration fee 75 .00
Subtotal: 4,700.00
4,700.00 - 270 hours of instruction not yet received 3,525.00
360 hours in course for which student paid
2. Step Two
Initial refund amount 3,525.00
Minus cost of unreturned equipment 0.00
Actual refund amount 3,525.00
The school will refund any money due within 10 business days after receiving a notice of cancellation.
A student who wishes to cancel or voluntarily terminate after starting training may submit a written notice to the School Director. In any event, the termination date for refund computation purposes is the last date of actual attendance by the student. In the case of prolonged illness or accident, death in the family, or other circumstances that make it impractical to complete the program, the school shall make a settlement that is reasonable and fair to both penalties.
If any portion of the tuition was paid from the proceeds of a loan, the refund shall be sent to the lender or, if appropriate, to the state or federal agency that guaranteed or reinsured the loan. Any amount of refund in excess of the unpaid balance of the loan shall first be used to repay any student financial aid programs from which the student received benefits, in proportion to the amount of the benefits received, and any remaining amount shall be paid to the student.
The Student Tuition Recovery Fund (STRF) was established by the Legislature to protect any California resident who attends a private post-secondary institution from losing money if the student prepaid tuition and suffered a financial loss as a result of the school closing, failing to live up to its enrollment agreement, or refusing to pay a court judgment. To be eligible for STRF, you must be a "California resident" and reside in California at the time the enrollment agreement is signed or when you receive lessons at a California mailing address from an approved institution offering correspondence instruction. Students who are temporarily residing in California for the sole purpose of pursuing an education, specifically those who hold visas, are not considered a "California resident".
To qualify for STRF reimbursement, the student must file a STRF application within one year of receiving notice from the Bureau that the school is closed. If the student does not receive notice from the Bureau, they have four years from the date of closure to file a STRF application. If a judgment is obtained, the student must file a STRF application within two years of the final judgment. It is important that the student keep copies of the enrollment agreement, financial aid papers, receipts or any other information that
documents the monies paid to the school. Questions regarding the STRF may be directed to the Bureau for Private Postsecondary and Vocational Education, 400 "R" Street, Suite 5000 Sacramento, CA 95814-6200. Mailing address: P.O. Box 980818 West Sacramento, CA 95798-0818. Phone (916) 445-3427 fax (916) 322-2615.
