SATISFACTORY ACADEMIC
PROGRESS (SAP)
A student enrolled at The School is expected to maintain satisfactory academic progress (SAP). A student
must maintain a minimum cumulative grade point of 70% and complete the entire program of instruction
w ithin the maximum time frame of 150% of the scheduled length of the program in which the student is
enrolled ("maximum time frame") A student's satisfactory academic progress will be evaluated at the
midpoint and end of the program. At the time of evaluation, the student must have a minimum
cumulative grade point of 70 % and have completed 90% of the scheduled clock hours.
If a student is found not to meet the minimum quantitative standards at the time of evaluation, the
student w ill be placed on SAP Probation for a period of two weeks. During probation, The School will
provide the student with advising and remediation. While on SAP Probation, the student will continue to
be eligible for financial aid. If the student does not meet the minimum quantitative standards by the end
of the probation period, the student will be withdrawn from The School. If the student does not meet
the qualitative standards at the end of that period, the student will be withdrawn from the program.
A student who is w ithdraw n based on his or her failure to maintain satisfactory academic progress may
appeal his or her withdrawal in writing to the School Director. The Student's appeal should document an
error in the student's records or the School calculation of satisfactory academic progress or unusual or
mitigating circumstances that have prevented the student from meeting satisfactory academic progress
standards, but which are not an indicator of the student's ability to successfully complete the program in
which the student is enrolled. The appeal will be considered before an appeals panel consisting of the
School Director and Program Director. If the student is re-admitted, he/ she will be placed on probation
for 25% of the program.
A student who does not appeal or whose appeal is denied may apply for re-entry subject to the discretion
of the School Director no sooner than six months from his or her last date of attendance. If a student is
accepted for re-entry, the student may reestablish eligibility for financial aid only after meeting the SAP
standards. If a student w ithdraws and re-enters or is on a leave of absence, the period in w hich the
student is absent from School w ill not be included when determining whether the student is complying
with the 150 % maximum timeframe. If a student takes a leave of absence during any course the student
will receive a grade of incomplete (I) which will not be counted in the student's cumulative grade point
average. if a student withdraws from a course, the student will receive a grade of Withdrawal (W), which
will not be counted in the student's cumulative grade point average.
053
A student may be asked to repeat a level or module due to insufficient or unacceptable grades, minimal
attendance and/ or poor attitude during class. The original attempt at the level and the repeated attempt
will be considered when determining whether a student is complying with the 150 % maximum time
frame. Students may not receive financial aid for the repeated attempt. When required to repeat a course a
student will be obliged to transfer to another time slot if the class to be repeated is at its maximum
student capacity. If a student is unwilling or unable to transfer, or if no space is available, the student
must then await the availability of space and will be required to request a leave of absence pending an
opening. For example, if a Level II day student is required to repeat the level and the Level I day class is at
its maximum, the repeating student must either transfer to a night class session or w ait for the next
available day time slot. A level or unit may be repeated only once, subject to the discretion of the School
Director.
All students should be aware that the responsibility for complying with the School attendance requirements
is theirs alone. Failure to comply with those requirements as outlined in this catalog will result in failure to
graduate.
If a student is denied financial aid as a result of not having made satisfactory academic progress, an appeal
may be made to the financial aid appeals panel for reconsideration. The student must submit a written
appeal to the Office of Financial Aid, which will review the appeal w ithin one week. The Office of
Financial Aid will notify the student regarding the decision of the panel. The financial aid appeals panel
consists of both the President and School Director of The School.

APPROVED LEAVE OF ABSENCE
At The School we recognize that, at times, circumstances arise that make it necessary for
students to temporarily leave the School. W e recommend that a student consider the decision
to interrupt their studies carefully. Students may be approved for a leave of absence for any of
the reasons outlined below for a period of up to 60 days. In special cases, a student may receive
a second leave of absence during his/ her course of study at The School, but the total cumulative
period that a student is on an approved leave of absence may not exceed 180 days in any (9)
month period.
1.
Personal: A personal or family tragedy, serious emergency, or other special
circumstances that make attendance impossible or impractical.
2. Medical: Emergency or planned medical treatment for self or a family member.
In the case of Personal medical treatment, a physician's note must be provided to the
School. A leave of absence can be granted for a period of up to 180 days in such cases,
as determined by the School Director.
Military (reserve or active duty): A copy of the student's military orders must be
provided.
3.
088
Unplanned leaves may be granted during the course of a level or unit and w ill result in a
grade of "I" or Incomplete for that level or unit. Leaves during the course of a level or unit
will require the student to re-enter the program at the start of the class or in which the leave was
taken.
PROCEDURE FOR REQUESTING A LEAVE OF ABSENCE
A student seeking a leave of absence must submit a signed letter to the Administration office
specifying the reason for the request and the dates for which the leave is requested. The
Administration office w ill evaluate the request and notify the student if the leave of absence has
been granted. Leaving and failing to place a w ritten request for a leave of absence w ill result in a
student being w ithdrawn from the program after a period of 14 calendar days from the student's
last date of attendance.
A student who fails to return from a leave of absence will automatically be withdrawn unless the
student has submitted a second w ritten request and the request is approved by the School
Director. Any student w ho is granted a leave of absence and fails to return will be considered
w ithdrawn as of the first day of his or her leave of absence. As a result, the student may enter
repayment on his or her loans immediately.
International students may take a medical leave of absence w ith approval from the
Administrator and The School Director. International students taking a leave of absence for
non-medical reasons are not permitted to remain in the United States. All international students
taking non-medical leaves of absence are required to return to their country of residence and
will be required to obtain a new I-20, in some cases, a new student visa must be obtain before
returning. For more information, contact the Administration office.
089
RETURNING TO SCHOOL AFTER A LEAVE OF ABSENCE
While a leave of absence is over upon return, all repeated content counts as leave of absence
time towards the 180-day maximum time frame. Students w ill be placed in the
instructional program at the point commensurate with their skill level retained at the time
of return from leave. Students on a leave of absence for 30 days or longer w ill be required
to take a w ritten exam and skills test to determine placement upon return to the program.
The class schedule will be based upon the student's request to return and space availability. If
there is no space in the schedule requested, a student may be offered alternative schedule
options or may have to w ait until space is available in the desired schedule. In that case,
the leave of absence w ill be continued until the student is able start the new schedule.
However, in no case will the leave be continued for more than 180 days. Students will not
be required to make tuition payments w hile on an approved leave of absence. Students
are advised to meet w ith the Administrator to determine w hen the next payment will be
due.
Students are advised to meet with the Administrator if any loans have been received. St
udents w ill not be subject to additional tuition if they return to the same class schedule
they attended prior to their leave of absence. In some cases, students cannot return to the
same class schedule due to lack of available space in that schedule. In those cases, students w ill
not be subject to additional tuition if they return to the schedule suggested by the School.
Students may be subject to tuition changes if they request a schedule change. Leaves of
absence are granted for good reason shown and in accordance w ith such limitations as may
from time to time be prescribed by the United States Department of Education and State
Education Department.
A student on an approved leave of absence is considered as having "in school" status. the
student may not receive the program disbursement proceeds of a loan, nor may the
school credit the student's account.
090
PROBATION
A student may be placed on probation during the course of the program for failing to meet
grade or attendance requirements, for misconduct, or for failing to meet financial
obligations to the School. Students are notified of their probationary status by mail.

091
ACADEMIC PROBATION
Students must maintain a Grade Point Average (GPA) of at least 2.0, and overall
(cumulatively) in order to remain in good academic standing at ABC School of
Barbering.
General Academic Probation
If your term (semester) GPA is below 2.0, or if the cumulative GPA falls below 2.0, you
might be placed on academic probation. This means a hold (PB) would be placed on
your registration for the period that you are on academic probation. you will be required
to meet with the Administrator before registering for subsequent terms, and you will be
required to earn a GPA of at least 2.0. your cumulative GPA must be at least 2.0, in order
for the probation status to be lifted. When that is achieved, the probation hold will be
removed, and you will again be in good academic standing.
Academic Suspension
If you are already on academic probation, and if both your term GPA and your
cumulative GPA fall below 2.0, you might be suspended from the school. This means
that you cannot attend class and your loan might be suspended.
Readmission to ABC School of Barbering after Academic Suspension
Readmission to the school after suspension is not automatic, even after the minimum six
(6) month period. If you have been suspended, you must appeal for readmission; the
School Committee will then decide whether readmission is warranted at that time.
If you are readmitted to the school after being suspended, you will be placed on an
academic contract for your first three (3) months of enrollment. The general terms of the
contract will be that you receive a grade of (C) or higher, in all of your classes, and earn a
GPA of at least 2.0 for the remainder of the school year. additional terms might be added
(such as passing a minimum number of test, and/or completion of specific classwork
item's).
092
If you meet the terms of the academic contract, and if your cumulative GPA is at least 2.0,
you will be taken off academic probation at the end of the contract term. If your
cumulative GPA is below 2.0, however, you will continue on academic probation until
your cumulative GPA is at or above 2.0 (during that time, you will still be required to
have a term GPA of 2.0 or above for each semester you are enrolled).
If you do not meet the terms of the academic contract, you could be academically
dismissed from the school.
Purpose of the policy
The academic probation/suspension policy at ABC School of Barbering is not intended to
be punitive. We understand that a student might run into academic difficulty for a wide
variety of reasons, including (but not limited to) personal issues, poor time-management,
or unsuitable choice of course. The probation policy is intended to be an intervention by
the school, to alert the student that certain adjustments need to be made to avoid
continuing academic difficulty. The suspension policy is intended to give a student the
time to address the issues that resulted in academic difficulty, when adjustments has been
made during probation are not sufficient, and to prevent further damage to the student's
academic record while those issues are resolved.
093
DISCIPLINARY & DISCIPLINARY
DISMISSAL POLICY & PROCEDURES
It is necessary to have a minimum number of rules in the interests of the whole organisation.
The rules set standards of performance and behaviour whilst the procedures are designed to help
promote fairness and order in the treatment of individuals. It is our aim that the rules and procedures
should emphasise and encourage improvement in the conduct of individuals, where they are failing to
meet the required standards, and not be seen as a means of punishment.
Every effort will be made to ensure that any action taken under this procedure is fair, with you being
given the opportunity to state your case and appeal against any decision that you consider to be
unjust.
The following rules and procedures should ensure that:
The correct procedure is used when inviting you to a disciplinary hearing.
You are fully aware of the standards of performance, action and behaviour
required of you.
Disciplinary action, where necessary, is taken speedily and in a fair, uniform and
consistent manner.
094
Disciplinary action, where necessary, is taken speedily and in a fair, uniform

and consistent manner.
You will only be disciplined after careful investigation of the facts and the
opportunity to present your side of the case. On some occasions temporary
suspension on full pay may be necessary in order that an uninterrupted
investigation can take place. This must not be regarded as disciplinary action or
a penalty of any kind.
Other than for an "off the record" or trade union official informal reprimand,
you have the right to be accompanied by a trade union representative or fellow
employee, who may act as a witness or speak on your behalf, at all stages of the
formal disciplinary process.
You will not normally be dismissed for a first breach of discipline, except in
the case of gross misconduct.
if you are disciplined, you will receive an explanation of the penalty imposed
and you will have the right to appeal against the finding and the penalty.
095
DISCIPLINARY RULES
It is not practicable to specify all disciplinary rules or offences that may result in
disciplinary action, as they may vary depending on the nature of the work. In addition
to the specific examples of unsatisfactory conduct, misconduct and gross misconduct
shown in this handbook, a breach of other conditions, procedures, rules etc. within this
handbook will also result in the disciplinary procedure being used to deal with such
matters.
Rules Covering Unsatisfactory Conduct and Misconduct (These are examples only
and not an exhaustive list.)
You will be liable to disciplinary action if you are found to have acted in any of the
following ways:
Failure to abide by the general health and safety rules and procedures.
Smoking in designated non smoking areas.
Unauthorised consumption of alcohol on the premises.
Persistent absenteeism and/or lateness.
Unsatisfactory standards or output of work.
Rudeness towards members of College, members of the public or
other employees, objectionable or insulting behaviour, harassment,
bullying or bad language.
096
Failure to devote the whole of your time, attention and abilities to
our business and its affairs during your normal working hours.
Failure to carry out all reasonable instructions or follow the
school rules and procedures.
Unauthorised use or negligent damage or loss of our property.
Failure to report immediately any damage to property or
premises caused by you.
SERIOUS MISCONDUCT
Where one of the unsatisfactory conduct or misconduct rules has been broken and if,
upon investigation, it is shown to be due to your extreme carelessness or has a
serious or substantial effect upon our operation or reputation, you may be issued
with a final written warning in the first instance.
You may receive a final written warning as the first course of action, if, in an alleged
gross misconduct disciplinary matter, upon investigation, there is shown to be some
level of mitigation resulting in it being treated as an offence just short of dismissal.
097
RULES COVERING GROSS MISCONDUCT
Occurrences of gross misconduct are very rare because the penalty is dismissal
without notice and without any previous warning being issued. It is not possible to
provide an exhaustive list of examples of gross misconduct.
However, any behaviour or negligence resulting in a fundamental breach of
contractual terms that irrevocably destroys the trust and confidence necessary to
continue the employment relationship will constitute gross misconduct. Examples
of offences that will normally be deemed as gross misconduct include serious
instances of:
Theft or fraud.
Physical violence or bullying.
Deliberate damage to property.
Deliberate acts of unlawful discrimination or harassment.
Possession, or being under the influence, of illegal drugs at work.
Breach of health and safety rules that endangers the lives of, or may
cause serious injury to, employees or any other person.

have the right of appeal.
In all cases warnings will be issued for misconduct and full details will be
given to you. Any further breach of the rules in relation to similar or entirely
independent matters of misconduct will be treated as further disciplinary
matters and allow the continuation of the disciplinary process through to

CRIME AWARENESS AND SECURITY
Federal law enacted the Crime Aw areness and Campus Security Act of 1990 w hich
states educational institutions must publish and distribute an annual security report
containing campus security policies and procedures, as well as campus crime
statistics.
The annual security report is available to all students.
GENERAL REPORTING PROCEDURES
Security problems and violations cannot be handled in a constructive manner unless
School management know s of their occurrences. Accurate and prompt reports of all
criminal activity, acts of violence, and other emergencies should be made to the
School Director/ Director of Student Affairs or for student housing, to the Director
of Student Affairs/ Housing Director. The Director of Culinary and Pastry Arts and
the appropriate police agency should be notified. School officials promptly respond
to all reported criminal activity or other emergencies and take if you are the victim
of a crime and do not want to pursue action within the school's discipinary system
or whatever corrective action is necessary.
TIMELY WARNINGS
In the event that a situation arises, either on or off campus, that, in the
judgment of the School Director/ director of student Affairs, constitutes an
ongoing or continuing threat, a campus wide "timely warning" will be issued. The
warning will be issued through the School's email system to students, facuity, and
staff.
Depending upon the particular circumstances of the crime, especially in situations
that could pose an immediate threat to the community and individuals, the School
Director/ Director of Student Affairs may also post a notice on the front door, in
locker rooms and at student housing apartments.
101
CONFIDENTIA L REPORTING PROCEDURES
criminal justice system, you may still w ant to consider making a confidential
report. W ith your permission, the School Director can file a report on the details of
the incident without revealing your identity. The purpose of a confidential report is
to comply w ith your w ish to keep the matter confidential, w hile taking steps to
ensure the future safety of yourself and others. With such information, the School
can keep an accurate record of the number of incidents involving students,
determine w here there is a pattern of crime w ith regard to a particular location,
method, or assailant, and alert the School community to potential danger. Reports
filed in this manner are counted and disclosed in the annual crimes statistics for the
School.
102
SUBSTANCE ABUSE/ ALCOHOLIC
BEVERAGES POLICIES
The School is committed to creating and maintaining a campus environment that is free of alcohol
and substance abuse and that complies with federal and California laws. the school view's the abuse
of alcohol and legal drugs and the use of illicit drugs as being antithetical to the pursuit of
educational excellence and the realization of one's full potential as a student and member of this
community. Accordingly, the School takes very seriously its obligation to address the issue of
substance abuse.
At the same time, the School expects that students w ill conduct themselves in accordance w ith
basic principles of personal responsibility, respect for order, and consideration of the rights of
others. Implied in these expectations is the understanding that students are responsible for making
their own decisions and accepting the consequences of those decisions. In order to make informed
choices about alcohol and other drug use, students should educate themselves about the social,
physiological, and psychological consequences of drug use or excessive drinking.
The United States Department of Education issued regulations implementing the provisions of
the Drug -Free Schools and Communities Act Amendments of 1989. These regulations require
that the school distribute the follow ing information annually to you in w riting concerning the
possession, use, or distribution of alcohol and illicit drugs. the school's poilicies on substance
abuse and on alcoholic beverages are set out below, along with related information on school
sanctions for violation of these policies, on criminal sanctions for the illegal possession or
distribution of drugs and alcohol, on the health risks associated w ith drugs and alcohol, and on
places to obtain help concerning the use and abuse of alcohol and illicit drugs. These school policies
apply to all students and to all events or activities w hich are sponsored by the school or by a
school organization, whether they occur at the school or not. Please read all of this material very
carefully. There is much information here, some of it technical, but all of it vitally important.
103
STANDARDS OF CONDUCT
We believe that the best way to maintain an appropriate campus environment w ith respect to
drugs and alcohol is through preventive education about the dangers of drug abuse and
compassionate attention to the needs of those who may require help w ith alcohol or other drug
related problems. To that end, the Administration Office is available to meet w ith students and
provide information about services that are available in the local community.
The follow ing are The School's statements of Policy on Substance Abuse and on Alcoholic
Beverages.
STATEMENT OF POLICY ON SUBSTANCE ABUSE
In addition to policies and practices that emphasize concern for the welfare of individuals, the

may be subject to criminal penalties under certain circumstances for the possession, service,
or sale of alcoholic beverages, particularly for serving or selling an alcoholic beverage to a
person under the age of 21 years. Where appropriate or necessary, the School will cooperate

2.
SCHOOL SANCTIONS
Any member of the faculty, administration, or staff or any student may file a complaint
against a student if he or she knows or believes that a student has violated the school's
Policy on Substance Abuse or its Policy on Alcoholic Beverages.
If you are alleged to have violated either or both of these policies, you may be
placed on probation pending a hearing under the circumstances described in the school's
Student Disciplinary Procedures. Moreover, if it is determined that you have violated
either or both of these policies, the consequences may be severe. Sanctions can include
dismissal (i.e., expulsion) from the school, suspension from classes and other activities or
privileges, or other penalties permitted by school codes. For example, you can be
expelled from school housing or barred from participating in extracurricular activities.
Students may also be required to undergo evaluation and/ or participate in and
satisfactorily complete an appropriate counseling or rehabilitation program. Sanctions may
become part of a student's permanent academic record.
If school policies are violated at a student outing / event, that student may lose the
privilege of attending other outings / events and be subject to probation, suspension or
expulsion.
111
3.
CRIMINAL SANCTIONS
The unlaw ful possession, use, or distribution of illicit drugs and alcohol is punishable by
criminal sanctions authorized by the Federal government and by the State of California.
These sanctions can include imprisonment, fines, assigned community service, and loss of
federal student financial aid eligibility.
Section 484(r) of the Higher Education Act of 1998 provides that a student's elig ibility for
federal student aid be suspended if that student is convicted under federal or state law of any
offense involving the possession or sale of a controlled substance (not including alcohol or
tobacco). The suspension of eligibility ranges from as much as one year to an indefinite
period of time, depending upon the number and type of convictions. A student may regain
eligibility early by completing a drug rehabilitation program that meets certain statutory and
regulatory requirements or if the conviction is overturned.
Regarding illicit drugs, the seriousness of the offense and the penalty imposed upon
conviction usually depend upon the individual drug and the amount of the drug held or sold.
Under federal law, possession of illicit drugs can be punished by jail terms of up to twenty
years and minimum fines ranging from $1,0 0 0 to $5,0 0 0 . Federal possession and trafficking
convictions can also lead to the forfeiture of property (including your car), the denial of
federal benefits such as student loans and grants, and the loss or denial of certain federal
licenses such as pilot licenses. Moreover, having been convicted of a felony will prevent you
from entering many careers.
112
A person need not be in actual physical possession of a controlled substance to be guilty of a
crime. The unlaw ful presence of a controlled substance in an automobile is presumptive
evidence of know ing possession of such substance by each passenger unless the substance is
concealed on the person of one of the occupants. Similarly, the presence of certain
substances, including marijuana, in open view in a room under circumstances
demonstrating an intent to prepare the substance for sale is presumptive evidence of
knowing possession of such substance by anyone in close proximity.
Criminal penalties also may result from the misuse of alcoholic beverages or the sale of
alcoholic beverages w ithout a license..
If you are under the age of 21, you are prohibited from possessing an alcoholic beverage w
ith the intent to consume it. Each violation is punishable by a fine of up to $50 and / or
completion of an alcohol awareness program and / or up to 30 hours of appropriate
community service. Illegally possessed alcoholic beverages also may be seized and destroyed
by the School or external authorities. You can also be fined up to $10 0 and / or be required
to perform community service and / or be required to complete an alcohol awareness
program if you are under 21 and present falsified proof w hen purchasing or attempting to
purchase alcoholic beverages.
Your driver's license may be suspended for three months if you are under 21 and use a
driver's license to try to purchase alcohol illegally. Fines and license suspension periods may
