Refund Policy

IT Expert System Inc.’s cancellation and refund policy has been constructed to balance students’ occasional need to change their education plans with the institution’s financial investment in reserving a seat for that student in a classroom.

​

Students should be aware that timely notice of cancellation or withdrawal is essential to securing the maximum refund. Students must take care of notifying the institution as soon as possible regarding their intention either to cancel their enrollment contract or withdraw from the institution.

​

Cancellation Policy

​

A student’s enrollment agreement will be considered canceled, and all monies paid by the applicant will be refunded if, prior to the beginning of classes.

​

If any of the following clause applies:

​

  1. The Institution did not provide the prospective student with a copy of the student’s valid enrollment agreement and a current catalog or bulletin.

  2. The Institution cancels the student’s enrollment before the start of the course.

  3. The Institution cancels or discontinues the course of instruction in which the student has enrolled.

  4. The Institution fails to conduct classes on days or times scheduled, detrimentally affecting the student.

  5. The applicant presents medical evidence of inability to participate in the program.

 

If an applicant requests cancellation before classes begin, but after five business days following the postmarked date of the college’s letter of acceptance, the college will retain the application fee, not to exceed $100, but will refund all other monies paid for the contract term. 

​

A student who on personal initiative and without solicitation enrolls, starts, and completes a course of instruction before midnight of the fifth business day after the enrollment agreement is signed, is not subject to the cancellation provisions of this section.

​

Tuition Refunds

​

A full refund against the tuition and fees or a credit in a comparable amount against future tuition and fees will be offered to students who are called for active duty or active service. Full flexibility for re-enrollment and re-application will be offered to these students.

 

Students who cancel their classes from the institution may be eligible for tuition and fee refunds based on the refund table below.

 

  1. 100% refund for any medical emergency or death in the family and with proof of submission.

  2. 80% refunded if a student decides to drop out after the second week of class starts.

  3. After the first class, all refunds are processed on a case-by-case basis; relying on the student’s reasons/feedback for discontinuation of the Program(s).

  4. Reasons include but are not limited to: students not interested in the program content, students do not adapt to the teaching methods, conveyance issues, students facing personal crises, etc.

  5. For students who utilize the cancellation privilege a full refund will be made in 10 business days.

​

Students must make a written request for withdrawal and a request for a refund. If a student has attended the classes in person or on the web or missed the classes prior to the formal request, then these weeks counts will be considered as the student has taken the classes and these number of weeks will be used in determining the refund amount.

​

If there is a billing balance or outstanding balance, the student may still be liable for unpaid institutional costs as well as any non-institutional costs. The Institution may deduct an administrative fee of $100 from the amount of the total refund.

 

A student who must terminate his or her education is encouraged to give notice of cancellation to the institution in writing.

  1. Student complete name

  2. Student identification number

  3. Student return address, contact number, and email address.

  4. The course/program name of the withdrawal

  5. the student’s complete legal signature, reflecting the student's full name.

  6. Reason for withdrawal

​​

  1. Withdrawals 72 hours before the first day of program class with the right justification will receive a full refund.

  2. Withdrawals submitted through the second week of program classes will receive an 80% refund.

  3. After five weeks, a student may still withdraw; however, there are no refunds for withdrawals.

  4. Once a student withdraws from a course, his/ her transcript will read as ‘W’ as a grade for that course in the final transcript of the program.

Note: Our goal is to ensure the students are trained and are competitive in the job market.

Standard of Satisfactory Academic Progress

 

Policy Statement: IT Expert System Inc. is committed to helping students achieve satisfactory academic progress toward the completion of their programs. To that end, the organization has established the following satisfactory academic progress policy:

​

  • Procedure: The following procedures will be followed to implement the satisfactory academic progress policy:

​

  • Monitoring: The organization will monitor student academic progress at the end of each academic period.

​

  • Notification: Students who fail to meet the minimum academic progress standards will be notified in writing of their academic standing and any resulting probation or suspension.

​

  • Academic Advisor: Students on academic warning or probation will be required to meet with their academic advisor to develop an academic improvement plan.

​

  • Academic Appeals: Students may appeal an academic progress decision by submitting a written appeal to the Academic Appeals Committee.

 

Attendance: Students are expected to attend all scheduled classes and laboratory sessions. Failure to attend regularly will result in the student being placed on academic warning or probation.

 

Satisfactory Progress: Satisfactory academic progress is measured both qualitatively, by reviewing the educational objectives completed, and quantitatively by reviewing the cumulative attendance rate. A minimum of 90% cumulative attendance is required, with no more than 10% excused absences. Absences above 10% are unexcused and must be made up.

​

  • Qualitative Progress: Students need to maintain a cumulative grade point average of at least 2.0 (a C average). Grade point values are A = 4.0, B = 3.0, C = 2.0, D = 1.0, F = 0. Grades of I, P, NP, and W are not calculated in the GPA. In the case of a repeat course, only the higher grade is calculated into the grade point average.

​

  • Completion Rate: Students need to complete a minimum of 80 percent of coursework (registered clock hours) attempted at IT Expert System Inc.

​

Any course with a grade withdrawing (W), (F), incomplete (I)), or No Pass (NP) is not considered completed coursework. A course is counted as completed only once, regardless of how many times attempted or the grade earned.

​

  • Maximum Timeframe: Students are expected to complete their programs within a specified timeframe. Students must complete their                                          programs within 90% of the published length of their program.

​

  • Warning and Probation: Students who fail to maintain the minimum academic standards will be placed on academic warning or                                                    probation. During the warning or probationary period, students will be required to meet with their academic                                              advisor to develop an academic improvement plan.

  • Suspension and Termination: If a student fails to meet the minimum academic progress standards during the probationary period, they                                                 may be suspended or terminated from their program.

  • Appeals: Students who wish to appeal an academic progress decision may do so by submitting a written appeal to the Academic                         advisor. The appeal must state the grounds for the appeal and be supported by relevant documentation.

  • Notification Process:

    • Written Communication: Students are notified in writing via email when they fail to meet SAP standards. It should clearly outline the specific SAP standards the student failed to meet and the consequences.

    • Timely Notification: IT Expert System Inc notify students promptly after the end of each course if they are not meeting SAP standards. This allows students to understand their status and take appropriate action.

    • Providing Guidance: In addition to notifying students of their SAP status, we offer guidance and resources to help students improve their academic standing. This includes academic advising, tutoring, or study skills workshops.

Complaint Policy

 

Purpose

​

The student complaint policy of IT Expert System Inc. is established to provide a clear and transparent process for students to express their concerns, complaints, or grievances related to academic, administrative, or interpersonal matters within the institution. This policy is designed to foster a culture of accountability, continuous improvement, and student satisfaction.

 

Scope

​

The following guidelines describe how a student at IT Expert System Inc. should file a complaint against another member of the Institution community. Complaints should be filed as soon as possible, but no more than 90 days after the incident occurs. Students can contact IBHE if complaints are not satisfactorily resolved with the school.

​

IBHE contact information:

Address: 1 N Old State Capitol Plaza, Suite # 333, Springfield, IL - 62701

Website: www.complaints.ibhe.org

 

Process for Filing a Complaint

​

IT Expert System requires a concerned or aggrieved student to make a concerted effort to resolve the complaint informally. At this stage, the student should talk directly with the staff person, faculty member, or administrator with whom the problem or question exists. During this step, the student should share their concern directly so that the other person has an opportunity to hear the concern verbatim and attempt to resolve the specific issue at hand. In this situation, the presenting student should consider these tips:

​

  • Contact the organization employee by phone or email to schedule an appointment.

  • Briefly state the purpose of the requested meeting

  • During the meeting, clearly explain the concern and suggest a remedy that would help to resolve it.

​

Enrolled and prospective students, face to face and online, may register concerns in a variety of ways ranging from informal conversations, formal appeals, to feedback on evaluation surveys. If a student wants to register a formal complaint it must be submitted in writing or by email (the official communication medium at the Mount). Written/emailed formal complaints should describe the issue or concern and must include the student's name, signature (electronic signature acceptable), and date. Formal complaints should be submitted to the President, who will determine if further action is necessary.

 

Steps for Formal Complaint:

 

  • Within 10 days of the receipt of a complaint it will be acknowledged in writing and initially reviewed by the staff of IT Expert.

​

  • It is the complainant's responsibility to do the following:

    • State the complaint in the clearest possible terms.

    • Provide, in writing, a clear description of the evidence upon which the allegation is based.

    • Demonstrate that all remedies available at the institution (grievance procedures, appeals, hearings, etc.) have been exhausted. The complainant should describe what has been done in this regard.

    • Acknowledge awareness that IT Expert staff may send a copy of the complaint to the President.

    • Include name and address.

    • Sign the complaint.

 

  • Within ten days of the receipt of a complaint it will be acknowledged in writing and initially reviewed by the staff of IT Expert. Individual complaints, whether acted upon or not by the IT Expert, will be retained in IT Expert files.

​

  • If the IT Expert Management finds the complaint to be not within its scope of policies and jurisdiction, the complainant will be notified.

​

  • If the complaint appears to be within the scope of the IT Expert’s policies and jurisdiction, and is substantially documented, a copy of the complaint will be forwarded to the institution's chief executive, who will be asked to respond to the complaint by addressing a letter and any supporting evidence to the President of IT Expert within thirty days.

​

  • The IT Expert Management will review the complaint, the response, and the evidence submitted by the President, and will determine one of the following:

    • That the complaint will not be processed further. The complainant will be notified within ten days.

    • That the complaint has sufficient substance to warrant further investigation. If an IT Expert decides to investigate a complaint, it will inform the complainant of its decision to investigate, and at the same time, it will inform the institution of its intent to investigate.

​

  • As part of its investigation, IT Expert may request information for the purpose of fact-finding. If further investigation is warranted, the time to conduct the investigation may vary considerably depending on the circumstances and the nature of the complaint.

​

  • IT Expert will prepare a Report of the Findings of the Complaint Investigation. Prior to the IT Expert’s disposition of the complaint, the student will have an opportunity to respond in writing within thirty days to the findings of the investigation.

​

  • IT Expert will consider the Complaint, the Report of the Findings of the Complaint Investigation, and any student’s response to the findings of the investigation in reaching a disposition on the Complaint. Although every effort will be made to expedite a decision, it is not possible to guarantee a specific time frame in which the process will be completed.

​

  • If the IT Expert’s deliberations conclude that there is credible evidence that the student is not meeting the policies, the IT Expert may (a) provide directives to the student to take immediate corrective actions, or (b) invoke any of the sanctions provided for in policy. IT Expert will also schedule appropriate monitoring of the student’s subsequent response, including calling for Special Reports.

​

  •  The decision is final and will be communicated by the President of IT Expert to the student. IT Expert will provide the student with copies of correspondence that state the outcome of the complaint within ten days of the decision on the disposition of the complaint. 

​

  • The IT Expert will keep a record of the students’ complaints. IT Expert staff will report to the Management annually regarding the status and resolution of student complaints and a comprehensive evaluation, and a summary of any complaints will be provided to the IT Expert Management Team for consideration.

​

The purpose of this policy is to show commitment to ensuring a safe and healthy organization and operational environment for everyone, free from alcohol and drug use and /or abuse.

​

SCOPE

​

​

STANDARDS OF CONDUCT

​

IT Expert System Inc. prohibits the unlawful possession, use, or distribution of illicit drugs and alcohol by employees and students on Institute premises, property, or as part of its activities.

​

The Institute expects all employees to report to work fit for duty and free of any adverse effects of illegal drugs or alcohol.

  • Employees are encouraged to seek help from a trained counsellor or licensed treatment facility within the community. Information about drug and alcohol counseling and rehabilitation will be provided as needed.

  • All associated costs for rehabilitation treatment will be borne by the employee. Some health insurance programs offer partial payment for treatment of problems related to drug or alcohol abuse.

  • Once the drug or alcohol abuse policy is violated, subsequent enrolment in a treatment program will not necessarily lessen disciplinary action and may have no bearing on the determination of appropriate disciplinary action.

 

IT Expert System Inc. Will assist and support employees who voluntarily seek help for drug or alcohol problems before becoming subject to discipline or termination under this or other Institute policies.
