Board Plan (Assumes board cost plus any applicable Idaho State sales
tax)
Pricing is per term. Freshman and Sophomores living in the Residence
Halls are required to purchase Plan A, Plan B or Plan C each term (Plan
D is for Juniors and Seniors or off-campus students) Students can tailor
meal plan to accommodate the additional 6 weeks for the combined Winter/Spring
term. For health, safety and other reasons, ACI expects that all
residential students (including those in The Village Apartments) participate
in a board plan.
In order to address the need for increased flexibility for upper-class
students, Juniors and Seniors only, are eligible to participate in the
$250 per term cash plan should they wish not to participate in the other
Board Plans offered. Because the 2003/04 academic year is transitional
for this policy, seniors for 03/04 and those living in the rental houses
will be exempt.
Meal Plans cannot be cancelled after first week of term.

The Interest-Free Monthly Payment Option

Tuition Management Systems, Inc., is an alternative to large, annual
or semester payments and helps limit borrowing. The Interest-Free
Monthly Payment Option is available for only a small enrollment fee
of $65 per year or $55 per term and includes: convenient, interest-free
monthly payments; life insurance coverage for your payment balance;
24-hour, toll-free automated account information through Family InfoLine;
personal account service Monday through Saturday; full, interactive
access to account information through the TMS website, http://www.afford.com/; and eligibility
for one of eight annual $1,000 Tuition Management Systems Scholarships.
INTEREST CHARGES
Albertson College charges interest at 1.5% per month on all unpaid
balances (does not include accounts on monthly payment plan option)
over 30 days. Interest will be added to student accounts on the
10th of each month. Albertson reserves the right to withhold
transcript requests for students with unpaid student accounts. This
includes balances that are the result of a delay of loan funds or external
scholarships or any account not handled through Tuition Management Systems.
STUDENT PRIVACY ACT
Federal law prohibits release of academic or financial records, even
to parents, without the student's consent for students over 18 years
of age.
REFUNDS FOR WITHDRAWAL
Refunds are calculated when an official course withdrawal form
is filed with the Registrar's Office or when a student notifies Student
Financial Services of intent to withdraw. The official date of withdrawal
is considered the day Student Financial Services receives notification
of intent to withdraw or the last day the student attended class. The
refund is determined from this date and is calculated per the Federal
Refund Calculation guidelines. Refund rates are adjusted to accommodate
the differing lengths of the two terms (i.e., fall term is 13 weeks
in length and winter/spring term is 19 weeks in length). Federal aid
is refunded (returned to the federal programs) in compliance with federal
regulations.
Institutional charges and institutional aid for the two terms are
refundable for official withdrawals as follows:

LEAVE OF ABSENCE
To maintain continuing student status, students must be continually
enrolled with no interruption in terms unless a student files for a
Leave of Absence. Up to two academic years (first and second term) may
be omitted if a student files a completed official Leave of Absence
(LOA) form signed by:
- the advisor
- the Vice President for Academic Affairs
- the Dean of Student Affairs
- the Director of Student Financial Services
- a Student Service Representative
When returning to Albertson College within the appropriate time frame,
a student on an approved LOA will continue under the catalog and
tuition rate in place (plus any increase) at the time the student
left. If returning after the LOA expires, the student will be
subject to the catalog and tuition rate active the year the student
returns. Laptop, mail center key and all library books must be returned
at time of leave of absence in order for LOA to be approved.

"Strategies For Success" Program
The Strategies for Success program was created in collaboration with
the Lee Pesky Learning Center to help students with language-based learning
disabilities develop the skills needed for academic success.
Once a student enrolls in the program, they will meet with an educational
specialist for one hour twice a week for one-on-one instruction. The
sessions include instruction in the student’s learning deficit areas
(such as dyslexia) and assistance with college course requirements.
An educational assistance plan is constructed to address the deficit
areas, which have been identified through testing. Progress is evaluated
through pre- and post testing in addition to ongoing academic review.
Communication with the student’s professors is an integral part of the
educational assistance plan and is arranged as needed.
The Strategies for Success program is limited to 10 students per year
and the costs are outlined as follows:

NON-ACADEMIC STUDENT PETITIONS
The non-academic student petition process is the vehicle by which students
may petition for reimbursement of fees, waiver of the freshman residency
requirement, or to be released from the Residence Hall Agreement. The
Student Affairs Committee on an "as needed" basis reviews non-academic
student petitions. However, in some instances, the committee may defer
judgment to the Dean of Student Affairs. Non-academic student petitions
are available in the Office of Student Affairs.
Students submitting non-academic petitions are responsible for providing
any and all documentation requested to evaluate the petition. No action
will be taken on a petition until the student has provided all necessary
documentation and/or authorized the release of information.
