Date: _______________

 

I understand and accept The English Island’s Main Rules:

Please write your initials on the line after each policy and sign your name at the bottom.

  1. I must pay for my classes according to the payment schedule. If I do not resolve a payment issue within one week of the school contacting me, the school has the right to terminate my F-1 status. ____
  2. The English Island reserves the right to change school policies, including tuition and fees. ______
  3. If I am placed on any kind of leave, academic, medical, or otherwise, I must remain in good and current standing with the school and maintain the status of my visa. I am required to continue to pay for my English classes and will be required to make up missed work. If I fail to pay for my classes or make up missed work, I may have my F-1 status terminated. _______
  4. Vacation must be requested 1 term in advance of the desired vacation date. I must be in good financial status with the school to request vacation. I must pay a deposit of $550 before vacation is approved to hold a spot in the program. Failing to follow proper vacation procedures may lead to my F-1 status termination or suspension. _______
  5. The English Island does not offer refunds for books or fees. Limited partial tuition refunds may be considered for extraordinary situations only. ______
  6. If I think I am in the wrong level, I should speak with my teacher. If my teacher does not feel I should change levels, I can enter a request with the Academic Director to retake the entrance exam for an opportunity to change levels. Changing levels in the middle of the term is generally not possible except in special cases. I understand that refusing to take a daytime or evening class that is my level may result in my being placed in the wrong level, and The English Island has the right to mandate students take their appropriate level, daytime or evening.  _______
  7. If I don’t have a 75 average or better grade point or better each term, I will fail the level and will have to repeat the level. I will also receive an academic warning.  I can only fail my classes for 2 terms during my time at The English Island. If I consistently fail classes, my F-1 status will be terminated. _______
  8. If I cheat on a quiz or exam, I will receive a 0 on that quiz/exam. If I continue to cheat, there will be additional consequences. ______
  9. I must be in class every day on time. Attendance in class is required. There are no excused absences. If I don’t maintain 80 percent attendance each term, I will be on attendance probation and may have my F-1 status terminated. ______
  10. Poor behavior may result in suspension or dismissal. ______
  11. I must buy textbooks and bring them to class daily. If I do not buy my textbooks, I will be penalized. _______
  12. If I have a major problem with the school, instructions, or anything else pertaining to my experience, I may file a formal complaint by completing a complaint form. _____
  13. I understand that The English Island reserves the right to update the school policies at any time and without notice. ______
