Administration Policies

Non-Discrimination and Diversity
The school offers equal opportunities, without distinction
or discrimination because of race, religion, color, age, sex, sexual
orientation, national origin, disability, gender or any other protected
status, in all of its programs of study and services. The school
adheres to non-discrimination in all of its programs of study and
services. The school also encourages cultural and ethnic diversity
in its faculty, staff and student body.

Academic Achievement
Grading
Grading is administered to assess the student's educational
progress. Grading is based on the student's performance and level
of achievement on assignments, projects and examinations in each
course. Many course examinations are proctored. Students in online
courses are required to travel to a testing site designated by the
school to take the course examinations that the school requires
to be proctored. The following is a list of possible grades that
a student may receive for a course, the points that each grade will
contribute per course credit hour to the student's grade point average
and a brief description of the grade:

Credential
Upon successfully completing all of
the requirements for graduation and satisfying all indebtedness
to the school, the school will award the student the appropriate
credential for the student's program of study as specified in
the Curricula section of this catalog. The school only awards
graduates of a specific program of study the credential specified
for the student's program in the Curricula section of this catalog.
Other ITT Technical Institutes only award their graduates of a
specific program of study the credential specified for that program
in that ITT Technical Institute's current catalog. The school
does not make any representation or promise whatsoever regarding
any future credential that may be awarded to any graduate of any
program of study that the school or any other ITT Technical Institute
may offer.
Honors for Undergraduate Programs
To accent the importance of academic
performance and give recognition to students who achieve a better
than average scholastic record, the school has the following academic
achievement recognition levels.
(a) Honors List - Any student who,
during a quarter, takes program courses that represent at least
eight credit hours and who achieves an overall grade point average
of 3.50 to 3.79 for the program courses taken in that quarter
will be placed on the Honors List.
(b) Highest Honors List - Any student
who, during a quarter, takes program courses that represent at
least eight credit hours and who achieves an overall grade point
average of at least 3.80 for the program courses taken in that
quarter will be placed on the Highest Honors List.
(c) Graduation with Honors - Any student
who graduates from his or her undergraduate program of study at
the school with an overall cumulative grade point average of:
(i) 3.50 to 3.79 for all of the courses taken in the program will
be designated an Honors Graduate; and (ii) at least 3.80 for all
of the courses taken in the program will be designated a Highest
Honors Graduate.
NOTE FOR GRADUATE STUDENTS: The school
has not established any academic achievement recognition levels
for students enrolled in a graduate program.
Academic Transcripts
An unofficial copy of each student's
transcript is available from the Registrar upon request by the
student. This service is subject to the Family Educational Rights
and Privacy Act of 1974, as amended. The school reserves the right
to withhold an official transcript if: (a) the student's financial
obligation to the school is in arrears; or (b) the student is
in arrears on any federal or state student loan obligation. The
school also reserves the right to limit, in its discretion, the
number of official transcripts provided without a processing fee.
Satisfactory Academic Progress
A student must make satisfactory academic
progress towards completing his or her program of study. To be
making satisfactory academic progress, a student must satisfy
the criteria set forth below in this Satisfactory Academic Progress
section. Any student who is failing to make satisfactory academic
progress in his or her program of study at any Evaluation Point
specified below will either be placed on academic probation, placed
on extended enrollment status or terminated from that program
of study as provided below.
Evaluation Points - Undergraduate
Programs
below (a) the student's overall cumulative
grade point average ("OCGPA") in his or her program
of study is less than the OCGPA required at that Evaluation Point
or (b) the student has not successfully completed the percentage

Notes:
1. If a student is not making
satisfactory academic progress in his or her program of study
at this Evaluation Point, the student will be terminated from
that program of study, unless the student appeals the school's
determination in writing to the Dean (as provided below in the
Appeal section) and the Dean grants the student's appeal. If the
Dean grants the student's appeal, the student will, at the school's
discretion, be placed on either academic probation or extended
enrollment status during the student's next quarter of attendance
in the program.
2. If this Evaluation Point occurs
during a quarter, the evaluation will be (a) conducted at the
end of the immediate preceding quarter and (b) based on the student's
OCGPA and Credit Completion Percentage as of the end of that immediate
preceding quarter.
3. If a student is not making
satisfactory academic progress in his or her program of study
at this Evaluation Point, the student will be terminated from
that program of study, unless the student appeals the school's
determination in writing to the Dean (as provided below in the
Appeal section) and the Dean grants the student's appeal. If the
Dean grants the student's appeal, the student will be placed on
extended enrollment status during the student's next quarter of
attendance in the program.
4. If a student is not making
satisfactory academic progress in his or her program of study
at this Evaluation Point, the student will be terminated from
that program of study at the school.
The calculation of the student's OCGPA and Credit Completion Percentage
in his or her program of study will include the grade earned and
the credit hours attempted, respectively, with respect to each
course that the student took at the school when the student: (a)
was enrolled in that program of study; and (b) was not enrolled
in that program of study, if the subject matter of that course
is substantially the same as any course in that program of study.
Maximum Time Frame for Completion
The student's Maximum Time Frame for
Completion ("MTFC") for his or her program of study is
150% of the credit hours designated in the Program Outline for such
program of study (as such credit hours may be revised or modified
from time to time by the school in its discretion) less the credit
hours associated with any course that the student receives a grade
of "CR" or "TR," rounded down to the nearest
whole credit hour. For example, if a program of study consists of
96 credit hours and the school accepted 11 transfer credits earned
by the student at another postsecondary educational institution,
the student's MTFC is 127 credit hours (150% of (96 - 11) is 127.5,
which rounds down to 127). Each credit hour in a program of study
that is "attempted" (as defined below) by a student is
counted toward the student's MTFC of that program of study each
and every time the credit hour is attempted by the student. A credit
hour or course is "attempted" if the student receives
a grade of "A," "B+," "B," "C+,"
"C," "D+," "D," "F," "I,"
"W" or "P" for the course that the credit hour
is part. For example, if a student takes Course X, consisting of
6 credit hours, and receives a grade of "W" and the student
retakes Course X and earns a grade of "B," the student
will have attempted 12 credit hours with respect to Course X. A
student may not exceed his or her MTFC for the student's program
of study. The student's MTFC for his or her program of study will
include the credit hours attempted with respect to each course that
the student took at the school when the student: (a) was enrolled
in that program of study; and (b) was not enrolled in that program
of study, if the subject matter of that course is substantially
the same as any course in that program of study. A student will
not be making satisfactory academic progress and will be terminated
from his or her program of study if, at any time, the school determines
that the student is unable to graduate from that program of study
without exceeding the student's MTFC for his or her program of study.
Academic Year
For undergraduate programs of study,
an academic year is three academic quarters in length. For the Project
Management program of study, an academic year is 34 weeks of instructional
time.
Credit Completion Percentage
The Credit Completion Percentage is calculated
by dividing the total number of credit hours that the student has
successfully completed in his or her program of study by the total
number of credit hours that the student has attempted in his or
her program of study.
Student Status for Undergraduate Programs
An undergraduate student who, in any
quarter, takes courses in his or her program of study that represent:
(a) 12 or more credits is a full-time
student;
(b) 9 to 11 credits is a three-quarter-time
student;
(c) 6 to 8 credits is a half-time student;
or
(d) less than 6 credits is a less than
half-time student.
The amount of federal and state student
financial aid that an undergraduate student may qualify to receive
may be adversely affected if the student is anything other than
a full-time student. Any student who is not a full-time student
should contact the school's Finance Department for more information.
Academic Probation - Undergraduate
Programs
If a student is placed on academic probation,
during the quarter of the student's academic probation the Dean
may require the student to repeat some or all of the courses that
the student previously received a grade of "D+," "D,"
"F" or "W" before the student can attempt any
other courses in the student's program of study. At the end of the
quarter of the student's academic probation, the student's OCGPA
and Credit Completion Percentage will be recalculated to determine
if the student is making satisfactory academic progress in the program
of study at that Evaluation Point.
A student will be considered to be making satisfactory academic
progress during the quarter of the student's academic probation.
All of the credit hours represented by the courses that the student
repeats during the quarter of the student's academic probation will
have been attempted by the student in determining the student's
Credit Completion Percentage, and all of the grades (and associated
points) earned by the student in those courses will replace the
previous grades (and associated points) earned in determining the
student's OCGPA. All grades earned for any courses the student attempts
will, however, remain on the student's transcript.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Evaluation Points
section: (a) a student will not be placed on academic probation
more than three times during any program of study in which the student
is enrolled at the school; (b) a student will not be placed on academic
probation, if such placement would represent the third consecutive
quarter of academic probation for that student while enrolled in
that program of study at the school; and (c) a student will not
be placed on academic probation, if (i) such placement would represent
the second consecutive quarter of academic probation for that student
and (ii) the student has attended four or more academic quarters
in that program of study at the school.
Academic Probation - Graduate Program
If a student is placed on academic probation,
during the student's academic probation the Dean may require the
student to repeat some or all of the courses that the student previously
received a grade of "D+," "D," "F"
or "W" before the student can attempt any other courses
in the student's program of study. At the end of the student's academic
probation, the student's OCGPA and Credit Completion Percentage
will be recalculated to determine if the student is making satisfactory
academic progress in the program of study at that Evaluation Point.
A student will be considered to be making
satisfactory academic progress during the period of the student's
academic probation. All of the credit hours represented by the courses
that the student repeats during the period of the student's academic
probation will have been attempted by the student in determining
the student's Credit Completion Percentage, and all of the grades
(and associated points) earned by the student in those courses will
replace the previous grades (and associated points) earned in determining
the student's OCGPA. All grades earned for any courses the student
attempts will, however, remain on the student's transcript.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in the Evaluation Points section: (a) a student will not be placed
on academic probation more than one time during the Project Management
program of study in which the student is enrolled at the school;
(b) if a student who is on academic probation is not making satisfactory
academic progress at the end of the academic probationary period,
he or she will be terminated from the Project Management program
of study; and (c) graduate students will not be placed on extended
enrollment status.
Extended Enrollment Status - Undergraduate
Programs
If a student is placed on extended enrollment
status, during the quarter of the student's extended enrollment
status the Dean will require the student to repeat some or all of
the course(s) that he or she received a grade of "D+,"
"D," "F" or "W" before the student
can attempt any other courses in the student's program of study.
At the end of the quarter of the student's extended enrollment status,
the student's OCPGA and Credit Completion Percentage will be recalculated
to determine if the student is making satisfactory academic progress
in the program of study at that Evaluation Point. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in the Evaluation Points section, if the
student is making satisfactory academic progress in the program
of study at the Evaluation Point at the end of the quarter of the
student's extended enrollment status, the student will be placed
on academic probation during the student's next quarter of attendance
in the program.
A student will not be considered to be
making satisfactory academic progress during the quarter of the
student's extended enrollment status. All of the credit hours represented
by the courses that the student repeats during the quarter of the
student's extended enrollment status will have been attempted by
the student in determining the student's Credit Completion Percentage,
and all of the grades (and associated points) earned by the student
in those courses will replace the previous grades (and associated
points) earned in determining the student's OCGPA. All grades earned
for any courses the student attempts will, however, remain on the
student's transcript. A student is ineligible for any federal, state
or other student financial aid to attend any course(s) in his or
her program of study at the school during the student's extended
enrollment status.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in the Evaluation Points section, a student will not be granted
extended enrollment status more than two times during any program
of study in which the student is enrolled at the school.
Incompletes and Repeats
If the student receives a grade of "A,"
"B+," "B," "C+," "C," "D+,"
"D," "P," "CR" or "TR" with
respect to any course, the student will have successfully completed
that particular course. If the student receives an "I"
grade and does not successfully complete the required work to remove
the "I" grade from his or her record (within six weeks
following the end of the (a) quarter in which the "I"
grade was received for undergraduate programs and (b) course in
which the "I" grade was received for graduate programs),
the student will receive the otherwise earned letter grade (normally
an "F"). Any student earning a grade of "F"
in any course included in his or her program of study must repeat
and successfully complete that course prior to: (a) taking any course
with respect to which the failed course is a prerequisite; (b) graduation,
if the student is enrolled in an undergraduate program; and (c)
progressing to the next course, if the student is enrolled in the
Project Management program. Any student who earns a grade of "F"
in a theory course that has a corresponding laboratory course, or
in a laboratory course that has a corresponding theory course, must
repeat both the theory and laboratory courses, regardless of the
grade earned by the student in the corresponding course. Any student
who successfully completes a course may request in writing for permission
from the school to repeat that course. A student who requests permission
to repeat a successfully completed theory course that has a corresponding
laboratory course, or a laboratory course that has a corresponding
theory course, will only be permitted by the school to repeat the
requested theory or laboratory course if the student also repeats
the corresponding laboratory or theory course, respectively. If
a course is repeated, the grade earned for repeating the course
will replace the previous grade earned in determining the student's
OCGPA in the student's program of study. All grades earned for all
courses the student attempts will, however, remain on the student's
transcript.
Readmission - Undergraduate Programs
A student who withdraws or is terminated
from a program of study at the school may not seek readmission into
a program of study before the next quarter that the course(s) the
student would take upon reentry into the program of study is(are)
offered by the school.
All readmission determinations will be
made by the school in its discretion and will be final and binding
on the student. The school is not obligated to readmit any student.
As part of the school's determination to readmit any student, the
school will consider whether the student was making satisfactory
academic progress at the last Evaluation Point that the student
was enrolled in the program of study. If the student was not making
satisfactory academic progress in his or her program of study as
of that Evaluation Point, the student will not be readmitted into
that program, unless the student appeals the school's determination
in writing to the Dean (as provided below in the Appeal section)
and the Dean grants the student's appeal. If the Dean grants the
student's appeal, the student will (at the Dean's discretion and
in conformity with the satisfactory academic progress requirements
associated with that Evaluation Point, as specified above, and the
limitations associated with granting academic probation and extended
enrollment status, as specified above) be placed on either academic
probation or extended enrollment status during the student's next
quarter of attendance in that program of study. If a student for
any reason is terminated or withdraws from his or her program of
study at the school during a quarter when the student is on: (a)
academic probation, the student will be on academic probation if
and when the student is readmitted to that program of study at the
school; or (b) extended enrollment status, the student will be on
extended enrollment status if and when the student is readmitted
to that program of study at the school. In no event will any student
be readmitted to a program of study at the school, if the school
determines that the student (i) is unable to make satisfactory academic
progress in that program of study or (ii) does not possess the motivation,
desire or academic ability to satisfactorily progress academically
through and graduate from that program of study. If the school decides
to readmit the student, the student must agree in writing to the
terms for readmission and execute a new Enrollment Agreement with
the school and pay all then current tuition, fees and any other
costs associated with the student's program of study.
Readmission - Graduate Program
Any student who withdraws or is terminated
from the Project Management program for any reason may not seek
readmission into the Project Management program: (a) until the course
the student would be required to first take if readmitted is subsequently
offered by the school; and (b) if more than two years have elapsed
since the student's withdrawal or termination.
All readmission determinations will be
made by the school in its discretion and will be final and binding
on the student. The school is not obligated to readmit any student.
As part of the school's determination to readmit any student, the
school will consider whether the student was making satisfactory
academic progress at the last Evaluation Point that the student
was enrolled in the Project Management program. If the student was
not making satisfactory academic progress in his or her program
of study as of that Evaluation Point, the student will not be readmitted
into that program, unless the student appeals the school's determination
in writing to the Dean (as provided below in the Appeal section)
and the Dean grants the student's appeal. If the Dean grants the
student's appeal, the student will (at the Dean's discretion and
in conformity with the satisfactory academic progress requirements
associated with that Evaluation Point, as specified above, and the
limitations associated with granting academic probation, as specified
above) be placed on academic probation during the next two courses
that the student attempts at the school in the Project Management
program. If a student for any reason is terminated or withdraws
from the Project Management program at the school during a period
when the student is on academic probation, the student will be on
academic probation if and when the student is readmitted to the
Project Management program at the school. In no event will any student
be readmitted to the Project Management program at the school, if
the school determines that the student (i) is unable to make satisfactory
academic progress in that program of study or (ii) does not possess
the motivation, desire or academic ability to satisfactorily progress
academically through and graduate from that program of study. If
the school decides to readmit the student, the student must agree
in writing to the terms for readmission and execute a new Enrollment
Agreement with the school and pay all then current tuition, fees
and any other costs associated with the student's program of study.
Reestablishing Financial Aid
A student must be making satisfactory
academic progress to be eligible to receive any federal, state or
other student financial aid to attend any course(s) in his or her
program of study at the school. If a student loses his or her eligibility
to receive financial aid for failure to make satisfactory academic
progress, the student cannot regain his or her eligibility to receive
financial aid until the student establishes that he or she is making
satisfactory academic progress.
Non-Credit Courses
Non-credit courses, which are taken on
a pass-fail basis, do not affect a student's grade point average.
Nevertheless, the student must repeat and successfully complete
any failed non-credit courses prior to the student graduating from
his or her program of study at the school.
Appeal - Undergraduate Programs
If the school determines that a student is failing to make satisfactory
academic progress in his or her program of study at the school,
the student may appeal the school's determination in writing to
the Dean. The student's written appeal must explain in detail the
mitigating or special circumstances affecting the student's academic
progress (such as the student suffering a serious illness or injury,
the death of a relative of the student or other mitigating circumstances)
that may give rise to the school changing its determination to terminate
the student from (or not to readmit the student into) his or her
program of study at the school, despite the student's failure to
conform to the requirements of the Satisfactory Academic Progress
section of this catalog. The Dean will review the student's written
appeal to determine whether, because of the mitigating or special
circumstances explained in the student's written appeal, the student
can remain enrolled in (or be readmitted into) his or her program
of study at the school despite the student's failure to conform
to the requirements of the Satisfactory Academic Progress section
of this catalog. The determination of the student's written appeal
will be made by the Dean (in his or her discretion and in conformity
with the Satisfactory Academic Progress section of this catalog)
and will be final and binding on the student. If the Dean grants
the student's appeal, the student will be placed (as specified by
the Dean and in conformity with the Satisfactory Academic Progress
section of this catalog) on either academic probation or extended
enrollment status during the student's next quarter of attendance
in that program of study.
Appeal - Graduate Program
If the school determines that a student
is failing to make satisfactory academic progress in his or her
program of study at the school, the student may appeal the school's
determination in writing to the Dean. The student's written appeal
must explain in detail the mitigating or special circumstances affecting
the student's academic progress (such as the student suffering a
serious illness or injury, the death of a relative of the student
or other mitigating circumstances) that may give rise to the school
changing its determination to terminate the student from (or not
to readmit the student into) his or her program of study at the
school, despite the student's failure to conform to the requirements
of the Satisfactory Academic Progress section of this catalog. The
Dean will review the student's written appeal to determine whether,
because of the mitigating or special circumstances explained in
the student's written appeal, the student can remain enrolled in
(or be readmitted into) his or her program of study at the school
despite the student's failure to conform to the requirements of
the Satisfactory Academic Progress section of this catalog. The
determination of the student's written appeal will be made by the
Dean (in his or her discretion and in conformity with the Satisfactory
Academic Progress section of this catalog) and will be final and
binding on the student. If the Dean grants the student's appeal,
the student will be placed on academic probation during the student's
next two courses that the student attempts at the school in the
Project Management program.
Attendance Requirements
Each student is required to regularly
attend scheduled class meetings and other activities that are part
of a course that the student is registered to take or the program
in which the student is enrolled. For residence courses, attendance
means participating in the class meetings and other activities of
the course in person. For online courses, attendance means participating
in class communications and activities of the course electronically
over the Internet in the manner and in accordance with the directions
specified by the school. Students attending online courses are required
to follow the protocols specified by the school to record the student's
attendance in the class communications and activities that are part
of the course. Any failure by a student attending an online course
to follow the protocols specified by the school to record the student's
attendance in a class communication or activity that is part of
the course may, as determined by the school, result in the school
identifying the student as absent from or a non-participant in the
class communication or other activity of the course.
As required by federal law, each student
must annually participate in the programs presented by the school
that address the following subjects: (a) promoting the awareness
of rape, acquaintance rape and other forcible and nonforcible sex
offenses (20 U.S.C. 1099c); (b) preventing the use of illicit drugs
and the abuse of alcohol by students (20 U.S.C. 1145g); and (c)
any other subject that the federal government may, from time to
time, require the school to present to its students. If a student
fails to participate in any of the above programs and execute any
documentation confirming his or her participation that the school
may require, the school may, in its discretion, suspend and/or terminate
the student from his or her program of study at the school.

Make-Up Work
Undergraduate Programs
A student may, at the school's discretion,
make up coursework missed due to the student's absences from class
meetings and other activities that are part of a course that the
student is registered to take or the program in which the student
is enrolled. If the school allows the student to make up any coursework
missed due to absences from the scheduled class meetings and other
activities that are part of a course that the student is registered
to take or a program in which the student is enrolled, the school
will determine, in its discretion, whether the student's make-up
work is satisfactory, and any decision by the school with respect
thereto will be final and binding on the student.
Graduate Program
Due to the comprehensive and sequential
nature of the Project Management program curriculum, make-up work
is required for any scheduled class or activity that is missed by
a student in that program. Any student absent from any scheduled
class or activity must consult with the faculty member responsible
for the missed class or activity to arrange for make-up work. Make-up
work for any missed class or activity must be completed before the
end of the course in which the absence occurred.

Leave of Absence
Undergraduate Programs
A student may be granted a leave of absence
only to accommodate the student's: (a) two-week military service
obligation; and (b) jury duty in excess of one week, but not to
exceed two weeks. Only one leave of absence (not to exceed 10 days)
will be granted in a 12-month period. Any student who requests a
leave of absence must submit in advance to the school Director a
written request, supported by third party documentation that is
acceptable to the school Director. The student's written request
must be dated and signed by the student and must specify the dates
of the requested leave of absence and the reason for the leave.
The determination of whether to grant the student's requested leave
of absence will be made in the school's discretion and will be final
and binding on the student. The student is responsible for contacting
the appropriate faculty member(s) to arrange to make up the coursework
missed by the student as a result of any granted leave of absence.
Graduate Program
Due to the concentrated nature of the
Project Management program and the teamwork required, no leaves
of absence will be permitted by the school. If a student takes an
unauthorized leave, the student will be deemed to have withdrawn
from the Project Management program.
Program Changes
Any student who desires to change his
or her enrollment in a program of study at the school to a different
program of study at the school must request the change in writing
to, and obtain the prior approval of, the Dean. All determinations
with respect to any request by a student to change his or her enrollment
in a program of study at the school will be made by the school in
its discretion and will be final and binding on the student.
Withdrawals
If a student wishes to withdraw from
any program course(s) that the student is taking at the school or
the student's entire program of study at the school, the student
must notify the Dean or Program Chair in writing prior to the date
of withdrawal. The writing must specify the date that the student
will withdraw from the course(s) or program of study and the reason
for the withdrawal. Prior to the student's withdrawal date from
his or her program of study, the student must also have an exit
interview with the Academic Affairs Department and the Finance Department.
If, during any quarter that a student is enrolled in a program of
study at the school, the student fails to: (a) become registered
to take any program course during that quarter within 17 calendar
days following the start of that quarter, the student will have
withdrawn from his or her program of study at the school; (b) attend
any classes for a period of 17 calendar days in a residence course
that the student is registered to take during that quarter, the
student will have withdrawn from that residence course; or (c) eight
(8) calendar days in an online course that the student is registered
to take during that quarter, the student will have withdrawn from
that online course. If a student withdraws from all program courses
that the student is registered to take in that quarter, the student
will have withdrawn from his or her program of study at the school.
A student who withdraws from his or her program of study may be
considered for readmission only in accordance with the Readmission
section of this catalog.
Advising
The student must receive academic, attendance
and/or financial aid advising from the school, as the school deems
necessary in its discretion.
Transfer of Credit
Credits earned in any course taken at
the school will be accepted for transfer by any other ITT Technical
Institute toward the credits required in the same course, if that
course is offered by the other ITT Technical Institute.
DECISIONS CONCERNING THE ACCEPTANCE OF
CREDITS EARNED IN ANY COURSE TAKEN AT THE SCHOOL ARE MADE AT THE
DISCRETION OF THE RECEIVING INSTITUTION. THE SCHOOL MAKES NO REPRESENTATION
WHATSOEVER CONCERNING THE TRANSFERABILITY OF ANY CREDITS EARNED
AT THE SCHOOL TO ANY INSTITUTION OTHER THAN AN ITT TECHNICAL INSTITUTE.
IT IS UNLIKELY THAT ANY CREDITS EARNED AT AN ITT TECHNICAL INSTITUTE
WILL BE TRANSFERABLE TO OR ACCEPTED BY ANY INSTITUTION OTHER THAN
AN ITT TECHNICAL INSTITUTE.
ANY STUDENT CONSIDERING CONTINUING HIS
OR HER EDUCATION AT, OR TRANSFERRING TO, ANY INSTITUTION OTHER THAN
AN ITT TECHNICAL INSTITUTE MUST NOT ASSUME THAT ANY CREDITS EARNED
IN ANY COURSE TAKEN AT THE SCHOOL WILL BE ACCEPTED BY THE RECEIVING
INSTITUTION. AN INSTITUTION'S ACCREDITATION DOES NOT GUARANTEE THAT
CREDITS EARNED AT THAT INSTITUTION WILL BE ACCEPTED FOR TRANSFER
BY ANY OTHER INSTITUTION. THE STUDENT MUST CONTACT THE REGISTRAR
OF THE RECEIVING INSTITUTION TO DETERMINE WHAT CREDITS EARNED AT
THE SCHOOL, IF ANY, THAT INSTITUTION WILL ACCEPT.
