RULES AND REGULATIONS

     All students entering the Institute do so with the  distinct understanding that they will be governed and must abide by the following rules and regulations:
     Tuition payable strictly in advance, and no refund is made to any pupil leaving before the close of the term for which he has contracted.
     Students may enter at any time, but will not be accepted for less than one term of ten weeks.
     Students who are late for lessons or omit them, do so at their own loss.  Only in cases of illness are lessons made up and then at the convenience of the teacher.
     Positively no cash refund is made for lessons lost by the student.  In cases of protracted illness a due bill for use in a later term is given.  Should circumstances permanently prevent the student using the due bill, the loss thereby sustained will be shared equally with the student.
     Lessons falling on legal holidays, including Thanksgiving Day, Decoration Day and July 4th, will be made up at the teacher's convenience.  No lessons excused or made up to pupils taking class lessons.
     Students are expected to attend all faculty and student recitals, whether they take part or not.  It is for the benefit of the students that these concerts are given.
     Upon leaving the Institute each student may receive a testimonial in which the time spent at the institution, diligence in study, and progress will be faithfully stated.
     All candidates for certificates and diplomas must make application at the beginning of the year; qualifications for same shall be determined by  the Board of Examiners.
     Business matters of all kinds connected with the Institute must be arranged at the office, and not with teachers.
     Students taking advantage of the ten per cent discount will not be allowed a refund for lessons missed during the first two weeks or the last two weeks of the school year.
