Steps to Enrollment

Our school has a page in its catalog that spells out every step towards enrolling. In admissions, we use a checklist to make sure that at each appointment the prospective student is informed and aware of the next steps they need to take, and any documents or materials they need to submit.

Getting Clear on Compliance

I am new to admissions. I get the whole piece with being forthright in communications, and not giving misleading information. I want to be clear- we are meeting compliance guidelines in accordance with the Florida Commission for Independent Education? Our school is accredited by COMTA. Am I correct in understanding that our accreditation is contingent on upholding the FCIE's guidelines?
