Energy Bodywork Program Policy
Supplies
-
The
application fee is non-refundable.
-
Applicants
who cancel within 3 days of signing and enrollment agreement and
making an initial payment will receive a full refund, except for
the application fee.
-
Students
who withdraw or are dismissed from the program in the first 7
calendar days after the program commences will receive a full
refund, minus the per day tuition rate for the number of class
days completed.
-
Student
refunds are prorated, with the student being refunded all
tuition for days they will not attend due to withdraw or
dismissal, up to completion of 50% of the program. For
example: students who complete 10% of their program before
withdraw or completion will receive a 90% refund; students who
complete 25% of their program before withdraw or completion will
receive a 75% refund.

All

termination.
Self
Care Requirement
Students
are required to receive at least one session of massage or bodywork
during every month they are in school. These sessions are arranged
and paid for by the student and must be with a therapist who has
received at least 175 hours of state-approved training.
Bodywork
Tables and Equipment
Students
are provided with an “Equipment Talk” early in their program, to
familiarize them with the features of several appropriate bodywork
tables and accessories which the Institute has researched. Students
are not required to purchase a table, as we provide tables for
in-class practice; however, it is highly recommended that they do so
for required practice sessions outside of class time. Bodywork table
and accessories orders may be processed through the Institute.
Student
Services
A
video lending library of most class materials is available to
students and graduates. A collection of supplemental texts and
resource materials is available to students for use during school
hours. Bodywork supplies, study aids, and resource materials are
available for purchase at the Institute’s Natural Health Shop.
Students are provided with information on liability insurance
options.
Any student or
graduate may request a meeting with a member of the administration
to address school-related concerns or for academic and vocational
guidance.
Attendance
and Make-up Policies
The
attendance and make-up policy reflects the number of hours required
by the program’s approval by the Pennsylvania Department of
Education. There are an allowed number of absences in the program,
for which students are required to complete make-up assignments
using the videotape lending library or by private tutorial with the
instructor at the student’s expense. Excessive absences put the
student on Academic Probation and may be grounds for the student to
be required to repeat classes, or for dismissal from the program.
Snow days are built into the winter class schedule; school-wide late
arrivals, early dismissals, and cancellation of school due to
inclement weather are sometimes necessary. These do not reflect on
the individual student record.
Leave
of Absence
A
leave of absence or interruption of training must be requested in
writing, using the Leave of Absence Request Form, available from the
Education office. Mt. Nittany Institute will generally grant
approval for the Leave of Absence for reasonable requests provided
there is an expectation that the student will return to school
within 180 days from the date of the last class counted. All
assignments, tests and class work missed must be made up on a
schedule approved by the faculty.
