Admission Process

To apply, students should complete the application form or call for a priority appointment to visit the school and receive a tour of its facilities.

A personal interview is required with an admission representative. This gives the applicants and their families an opportunity to see the school's equipment and facility, meet the staff and faculty, and discuss their career objectives. Personal interviews also enable school administrators to determine whether an applicant is eligible for enrollment into the program.

Once an applicant has completed and submitted the Enrollment Agreement, the school reviews the information and informs the applicant of its decision. If an applicant is not accepted, all fees paid to the school are refunded.

Admission is open to all applicants who meet the requirements regardless of age, sex, religion, and ethnic background.
