Please enroll me in the course. USCI is an open enrollment school and accepts enrollments 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. Therefore, I may start my training as soon as I have access to my course materials. Upon enrollment, students have immediate online access to their course materials. The enrollment period begins when the lessons are made available online. I have enclosed my credit card number, check or money order (or made arrangements) for the first payment and agree to make monthly payments as outlined on this agreement. Unless I request an earlier due date, my next monthly payment will be due in one month (as little as 28 days). Thereafter, each payment will be due on the same day of the month. I have enclosed my payment in full or my initial payment along with my agreement to make regular payments as outlined on page 1. The total course price is for the tuition, application charge and instructional and student support. Total course price does not include manuals or special equipment I may borrow or purchase to support my coursework. If you do not accept my enrollment, you will refund my initial payment. As required by USCI’s Admissions Policy, I attest in addition to submitting this enrollment agreement and initial payment, that I am at least 16 years of age, can read/write/speak English fluently, and am a high school graduate, have a state-approved GED or equivalent, have completed college-level course work or can otherwise demonstrate my ability to perform postsecondary-level course work through test evidence. (Note - Day Care and Veterinary Assistant students must attest to a minimum of 10th grade education). In addition, my parent/guardian will serve as guarantor for this contract until I am at least 18 years of age and I request in writing to be responsible for the financial obligations outlined in this agreement. If I do not make such a request, the parent/guardian signing this document understands they will continue to be responsible for the financial obligations in the contract after I turn 18 years of age. I understand that a disability that affects my ability to complete coursework, I should review the disability services policy on the school website. I understand all exams/quizzes are completed through distance education, and that although the coursework is most efficiently completed in less than twelve months; however, the school will allow me to take up to twenty four months to complete this course without additional charge. Upon successful completion of my coursework and payment obligations, I will receive a certificate. At that time, I will be eligible for graduate support. Official transcripts may be withheld for nonpayment of tuition fees.
I understand this course prepares me for entry-level work in the field and it is my responsibility to verify whether the clock hours earned from USCI will transfer to another institution or meet specific federal, state, municipal or employee training requirements. Acceptance of transfer credit is determined by the receiving institution. USCI participates in the VA military education and MyCAA programs. USCI does not participate in other financial aid programs. During my enrollment, the school will respond by telephone or in writing to any course-related questions I ask. U.S. Career Institute is approved and regulated by the Colorado Department of Higher Education, Private Occupational School Board. U.S. Career Institute is accredited by the Distance Education Accrediting Commission, www. DEAC.org. I agree to follow the school grievance procedure in the school catalog. I, or my guardian, may also file a complaint online with the Division of Private Occupational Schools, at highered.colorado.gov/dpos, or by phone at 303.862.3001, or with its accrediting body, the DEAC, at http://www.deac.org/Student-Center/Complaint-Process. aspx. There is a two-year limitation from the last assignment/quiz completed or enrollment, whichever is later, for the Division of Higher Education to be able to take action on a complaint. I agree that any dispute or claim arising out of or relating to this enrollment agreement shall be resolved by binding arbitration under the rules of the American Arbitration Association. Any award issued through arbitration may be made into a judgment of any court with jurisdiction to do so. This agreement, in addition to the current school catalog (part number 0200000CT15, Volume T, September 9, 2022 - December 31, 2022), my course start date and the Student Protection Policy included with this agreement shall be considered a part of this contract.

I have read the truth-in-lending disclosures on page 1 of this agreement. If I do not make payments as outlined on this agreement or in alternative payment arrangements accepted by USCI, I understand I may be sent to collections (or parent/guardian signing this agreement if enrollee initially enrolls when under 18 years of age and until the student turns 18 and requests to become the financially responsible party for this agreement). If I do not make payments as outlined on this agreement or in alternative payment arrangements accepted by USCI, I agree to reimburse the school for the fees, costs and expenses of a collection agency, which may be based on a percentage of the outstanding tuition, up to a maximum of 33%.

Students who wish to withdraw must communicate their withdrawal request to the Student Services Department. Students are strongly encouraged to submit their withdrawal request by email (stuserv@uscareerinstitute.edu); however, students may communicate their request by phone (800.347.7899) or letter (2001 Lowe Street, Fort Collins, CO 80525) if needed. The official date of termination is the date USCI receives notice from the student. Upon cancellation the amount refunded to the student or the amount due to the school is determined by how many assignment/quizzes have been completed and is calculated according to the following schedule:
Sample Refund Calculation: A student who lives in Colorado cancels enrollment after completing 9 out of 25 assignments, which is 36% of the course. The sample student enrolled six months ago at a tuition of $1,279.00. The student paid a $29 application charge. The student has paid $424.00 to the school. The refund calculation is as follows: 1. $1,279.00 - $150.00 (cancellation (registration) charge) = $1,129.00. 2. $1,129.00 x 0.50 (50% tuition per the outlined percent brackets in the refund policy) = $564.50. 3. $564.50 + $150.00 cancellation (registration) charge + $29.00 non-refundable application charge = $743.50 cancellation amount. 4. $743.50 cancellation amount - $424 already paid by student = $319.50 due from student to the school.
INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS: Tuition payment must be in U.S. funds. Students in Canada, Mexico and other foreign countries are responsible for any applicable custom duties and/or GST.
Postponement of a starting date, whether at the request of the school or the student, requires a written agreement signed by the student and the school. The agreement must set forth: a) Whether the postponement is for the convenience of the school or the student, and: b) A deadline for the new start date, beyond which the start date will not be postponed. If the course is not commenced, or the student fails to attend by the new start date set forth in the agreement, the student will be entitled to an appropriate refund of prepaid tuition and fees within 30 days of the deadline of the new start date set forth in the agreement, determined in accordance with the school’s refund policy and all applicable laws and rules concerning the Private Occupational Education Act of 1981.
Please enroll me in the program at the total semester and price indicated on page 1. The total semester price includes all costs I will incur for the semester indicated on this enrollment agreement. Total program price is estimated based on current tuition and other costs. I understand tuition, and therefore total program cost, for semesters not yet begun may be adjusted by the school to reflect changing costs in education. The school will notify me by mail or email in the event of a cost increase. I further understand total semester and program prices do not include proctoring services, manuals or special equipment I may borrow or purchase to support my coursework. Students must be 18 years of age. Exceptions will be made with guardian approval and the appropriate education. Students under 16 years of age will not be admitted. Students with a disability that affects their ability to complete coursework should review the disability services policy on the school website. Admissions Requirements: 1. Students must submit a signed enrollment application. 2. Students must attest to having: a) successfully graduated from a state-recognized high school; or, b) earned a GED. Students who have completed 12 semester hours or more from a college accredited by an accrediting body recognized by the U.S. Department of Education may submit official college transcript/s to meet this high school completion policy. Degree courses with grades below “C” (2.0) will not be counted toward t his requirement. International or homeschooled students must provide a letter of substantial equivalency or GED transcript. The letter of substantial equivalency is an appropriately authenticated program completion document issued by a governmental authority or school supervisor that attests to the successful completion of a program considered to be equivalent to an accredited high school diploma. See school catalog for additional details. 3. Students must be able to read and write in English. Applicants whose native language is not English must meet requirements outlined in the school catalog. 4. Transcripts not in English must be evaluated by an appropriate third party and translated into English or a trained transcript evaluator fluent in the language on the transcript. See school catalog for additional information. Transfer credit policies are outlined in the school catalog. Transfer of credit will not be denied solely on the basis of an institution's accreditation. I have enclosed (or made arrangements to pay) my full semester tuition payment. If I am not paying in full now, I will make a down payment followed by regular monthly payments. My first monthly payment will be due approximately 30 days after my enrollment agreement is accepted, and subsequent payments will be due on the same day of the month as my first monthly payment. I will pay the shipping charges shown. If I do not make payments as outlined on this agreement or in alternative payment arrangements accepted by the school, I agree to reimburse the school for the fees and all costs and expenses of the collection agency, which may be based on a percentage of the outstanding tuition, up to a maximum of 33%. Upon my successful completion of the program, payment of least 50% of my tuition obligation, and maintenance of a current account, U.S. Career Institute will award me an AAS Degree. At that time, I will be eligible for graduate support. Official transcripts may be withheld for nonpayment of tuition fees.

Students who wish to withdraw must communicate their withdrawal request to the Student Services Department. Students are strongly encouraged to submit their withdrawal request by email (stuserv@uscareerinstitute.edu); however, students may communicate their request by phone (800.347.7899) or letter (2001 Lowe Street, Fort Collins, CO 80525) if needed. Upon withdrawal, tuition for each semester will be recalculated according to how many assignments/exams the student completed, deducting all payments made. If an enrollment is not accepted, all monies paid by the applicant will be refunded. The official date of termination is the date USCI receives notice from the student. Upon cancellation, the amount due to U.S. Career Institute or the amount refunded to the student is calculated according to the following schedule: 1. If the student cancels within five (5) calendar days of enrollment in the program, the student may cancel the enrollment and is entitled to a full refund of all monies paid. 2. If the student cancels six (6) calendar days or more after enrollment in the program and has not submitted an assignment/exam, they are entitled to a reduction in tuition and fees. The adjusted tuition charge is $0. The cancellation (registration) charge is $150 per program, not to exceed 20% of the total program cost, for the one-time cancellation (registration) charge. The cancellation (registration) charge is only applicable to semester one. If the student paid more than the cancellation (registration) charge due, he/she is entitled to a refund for the total paid in excess of the charge. If the student has paid less than the cancellation (registration) charge due, the student owes U.S. Career Institute the difference in cancellation (registration) charge and the amount the student paid. 3. If the student cancels six (6) calendar days or more after enrollment in the program and has submitted an assignment/exam, tuition will be adjusted. If the student paid more than the adjusted tuition, he/she is entitled to a refund for the total paid in excess of the adjusted tuition. If the student paid less than the adjusted tuition, he/she will owe U.S. Career Institute the difference in the tuition paid and the adjusted tuition. Adjusted course tuition is based on the percent of each semester completed. Refunds in items are exclusive of books, tools and supplies. The adjusted tuition charge is based on the following schedule: a) If the student completes up to 10 percent of the assignments/exams in the semester, he/she is entitled to a 90% reduction in tuition. b) If the student completes after 10 but before the first 25 percent of the assignments/exams in the semester, he/she is entitled to a 75% reduction in tuition. c) If the student completes after 25 and before the first 50 percent of the assignments/exams in the semester, he/she is entitled to a 50% reduction in tuition. d) If the student completes after 50 and before the first 75 percent of the assignments/exams in the semester, he/she is entitled to a 25% reduction in tuition. e) If the student completes 76 percent or more of the assignments/exams in the course, he/she is not entitled to a reduction of the course’s tuition and will owe all tuition and fees/charges. 4. Students have one year to complete each semester. Semester one’s start date is the day of enrollment. Semesters two through four begin when the following two events occur: 1) the last assignment for the last course in the previous semester or the first assignment/exam from the new semester is submitted and 2) when the first course of the new semester is shipped to the student. If the student does not complete a semester within the time allotted and has not cancelled, the student is not entitled to a refund and U.S. Career Institute is entitled to the full tuition for the semester. All other student rights remain in place. 5. U.S. Career Institute issues refunds within thirty (30) days of receiving notice of cancellation. 6. Credit granted for previous training or coursework will not impact the refund policy. 7. Except as outlined in #1 of this student protection/refund policy, shipping/handling and the application charge are not refundable. Charges for NSF, late payment, expedited shipping and books ordered by the student are not refundable. 8. If a course is discontinued by the school prior to the end of the semester, the student is entitled to a full refund (except in the event the school ceases operation). 9. A $30 NSF charge will be assessed on payments returned for insufficient funds. A $10 late charge is assessed for payments not received by the due date. Note: Other than the cancellation (registration) charge, the refund policy is based on percent of assignments complete, not time.
Sample Refund Calculation: A student who lives in Colorado cancels semester one enrollment after completing 11 out of 30 assignments which is 37% of the semester. The sample student enrolled six months ago at a tuition of $1989, application charge of $75 and shipping of $40. The student paid a total of $834 (Tuition $719, application charge $75, shipping $40). The refund calculation is as follows:

The semester tuition payment information is outlined in the truth-in-lending disclosures on this agreement.

Therefore, I may start my program as soon as I have access to my course materials (which will be within 24 hours of enrolling). All coursework is completed online (distance education).

USCI will pre-select my remaining (nonvocational) electives upon enrollment. I understand I may change these electives (provided I meet school policy) any time before the content is made available to me. USCI does not guarantee the transferability of its credits to any other institution or acceptance of its diploma to meet college entrance requirements. The acceptance of transfer academic credits and academic credentials to another institution is determined by the receiving institution. Upon successful completion of the program and fulfillment of my payment obligations, I will be awarded my high school diploma. I have read and understood the USCI Catalog. I further understand and agree that the school catalog in effect upon my enrollment (identified as part number 0600000CT21B) is part of this enrollment agreement (contract) and agree to follow the terms and policies in the catalog as such. I attest that I am at least 13 years of age. If I am under 18, my parent/s or guardian/s must read and sign this agreement. In addition, my parent/ guardian will serve as guarantor for this contract until I am at least 18 years of age and I request in writing to be responsible for the financial obligations outlined in this agreement. If I do not make such a request, the parent/guardian signing this document understands they will continue to be responsible for the financial obligations in the contract after I turn 18 years of age. If I have a disability that could affect my ability to successfully complete my USCI coursework, I understand that I should read the Disability Services Policy in the school catalog or on the USCI website. USCI is accredited by the Distance Education Accrediting Commission, www.DEAC.org. I agree to follow the school grievance policy outlined in the school catalog. If I am unable to resolve my concern using the school’s grievance policy, I may file a complaint online with the DEAC at http://www.deac.org/Student-Center/Complaint-Process.aspx. I agree that any dispute or claim arising out of or relating to this agreement or my enrollment shall be resolved by binding arbitration under the rules of the American Arbitration Association. Judgment rendered by the Arbitrator may be entered into any court with jurisdiction. Arbitration proceedings shall be conducted in Fort Collins, or Larimer County, Colorado.
I have selected whether I am paying in full or making monthly payments. I have read the financial terms of my enrollment in the Truth-In-Lending Disclosures on the first page of this enrollment agreement and agree to these terms. If I do not make payments as outlined on this agreement or in alternative payment arrangements accepted by USCI, I understand I may be sent to collections (or parent/guardian signing this agreement if enrollee initially enrolls when under 18 years of age and until the student turns 18 and requests to become the financially responsible party for this agreement). I agree to reimburse the school for the fees, costs and expenses of a collection agency, which may be based on a percentage of the outstanding tuition, up to a maximum of 33%. If I have elected to make monthly payments, my next monthly payment will be due in one month (as little as 28 days). Thereafter, each payment will be due on the same day each month. The total course price is for the tuition, application charge, instruction, instructional material/access and student support. I will be charged an annual technology charge of $50 and a one-time application charge of $75. If I should need to apply for an extension of one of my courses, the charge is $50 per month of the extension. I may restart or repeat a course as well for a charge of $100. If my enrollment is not accepted, USCI will refund my initial payment. If a parent or guardian signs this document, they agree to serve as guarantors for this enrollment agreement. Official transcripts may be withheld for nonpayment of my tuition and fees.
Notice: Any holder of this consumer credit contract is subject to all claims and defenses which the debtor could assert against the seller of goods or services obtained pursuant hereto or with the proceeds hereof. Recovery hereunder by the debtor shall not exceed amounts paid by the debtor hereunder.
INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS: Tuition payment must be in U.S. funds. Students in Canada, Mexico and other foreign countries are responsible for any applicable custom duties and/or GST. Sample Refund Calculation: A student cancels enrollment after completing 27 out of 75 assignments, which is 36% of the program. The sample student enrolled six months ago at a tuition of $1,839.00. The student has paid $424.00 to the school. The refund calculation is as follows: 1. $1,839.00 − $200.00 registration charge = $1,639.00 2. $1,639.00 × 0.50 (50% tuition per the outlined percent brackets in the refund policy) = $819.50 3. $819.50 + $200 registration charge + $0 technology charge (since the student has not been enrolled for a full year) = $1,019.50 4. $1,019.50 cancellation amount - $424 already paid by student = $595.50 due from student to the school.
