Admissions
Policies & Refunds
For continued enrollment at Enlightium Academy, each student is expected to maintain good standing: passing grades in core subjects and staying up-to-date with the assigned weekly schedule.
Students with failing grades in core classes and/or those who fall behind more than two weeks on average between all classes, without excused absences, are at risk of being placed on academic or low progress probation. This is to alert families of the risk that their student will not be able to complete the school year on time and/or with passing grades, and thus may need a summer school extension, class assignment adjustments, or teacher and counselor intervention. The interventions may include enrolling in Enlightium's Bridge Program, academic growth plan adjustment by the student’s counselor, teacher collaboration on student learning needs, and/or the installation of monitoring software on the students computer to provide added accountability and uncover any potential distractions the student may have.
Students who do not demonstrate improvement or sufficient effort after multiple attempts may be recommended for withdrawal so the family can find a learning environment that better suits the student.
Prior to enrollment, parents and students will also need to read and understand the Parent and Student Responsibilities. Absences may be excused per approval via the Absence Form.

All new families are offered 14 days after the student begins completing the coursework to decide if the Enlightium Academy (Enlightium) online program will be the best fit for their family. If a family decides to withdraw within those 14 days, a withdrawal fee will not be charged and all paid tuition will be refunded. The enrollment fee is non-refundable after 3 days. Parents can request an extension to the withdrawal period prior to the end of the 14th day, if they are still not sure about their enrollment at Enlightium.
The same policy above applies to dropping individual courses. If withdrawing after a 14-day period, a staggered withdrawal fee schedule at 20% for withdrawing between 14–30 calendar days, 30% for 31–60 days, 40% for 61–90 days from beginning coursework, and no refund after 90 days.
If after the 14-day trial period, Enlightium Academy has not met your expectations, Enlightium's administration will investigate any concerns and enact changes to provide you the best experience possible and may lengthen your money-back guarantee if needed.
