5.0 Academic Policies

5.1 Attendance Policy
Students are expected to attend all classes as satisfactory attendance is considered to be a vital part
of each student's performance. Students are also expected to participate and actively contribute to
class assignments, demonstrating knowledge of the concepts and theories studied, and the ability to
apply that knowledge when analyzing current events, assigned case studies, or real business questions
from their own organizations and communities. Regular class attendance is essential to proper
academic progress and is expected.
Absences in excess of 20% of class hours, for any course, may cause a student to be ineligible to take
the final examination in that course. A student may be reinstated to classes following an instructor's
evaluation of his/her abilities and performance. Such determinations are made on an individual, case-
by-case basis. Excessive absences may also result in the following administrative actions:
• Attendance warning, probation, suspension or dismissal.

• Students must be in attendance by the third-class meeting or they are not permitted to begin
a course.
In an emergency which causes a student to be absent, it is the student's responsibility to make

arrangements with the instructor to complete missed work. The instructor decides if a student should
be permitted to make up missed work.
Assignments should be completed timely and within the posted deadlines. Limited extensions of time
may only be granted for unexpected business, health, or personal emergencies, whenever those are
communicated in advance of missing a due date. Emergencies require a written proof. In the rare
occurrence of a technical issue preventing students from submitting assignments on time, the late
penalty will not be applied, provided the technical issue is outside of the control of individual
students.
Online course attendance is tracked via CANVAS and students will be contacted when inactive in
an online course for (3) consecutive days. Students will be administratively withdrawn from an online
course if inactive in the course for (7) consecutive days.
5.2 Grading Policy

Questions about grades sent via the course messaging system or email will be answered within 48
hours. Personal information and questions related to grading must be handled via private
communications in order to protect students’ privacy rights. Discussion board grades and Individual
and Written Assignment grades will be posted within 5 calendar days after the end of each week, i.e.
by end of day on Friday after the week they are due.

Discussions and Participation

Each Week there will be discussion activities, written assignments, quizzes and/or case studies,
which require critical thinking and responses that are based in theory, readings, current events, and
personal experiences. Students should plan their weeks accordingly for maximum academic success.
Every week, there will be quizzes offered in the classroom, which consist of multiple-choice
problems. Quizzes are meant for practicing of the concepts and theories studied in class.
Mid-Term Exam
Many courses will have a mid-term exam. The mid-term exam may include a variety of question
types, including definitions, calculation problems, or analysis from all topics covered over the first
half of the term.
Final Exam
There is a final exam during the final week of each term. The final exam may include a variety of
question types, including definitions, calculation problems, or analysis from all topics covered
throughout the term.
Program Grading Philosophy

Students should note that the average grade for Paris Air Flight Academy is a grade of “C”. Students,
whose performance is solid and meet expectations consistently can expect to earn this grade. Our
Institution is very focused on ensuring that classes are not grade inflated and as such, grades of “A”
are only provided for those assignments and activities for which a student goes beyond expectations.
Per the policy, grades less than “C” are not meeting standards of school competency and students
whose cumulative GPA falls below “C” are subject to being placed on Academic Probation or
Dismissal, as detailed in the Catalog.
5.3 Satisfactory Academic Progress

A student must meet the following minimum standards of academic achievement and successful
course completion while enrolled at Paris Air Flight Academy.
Maximum Program Length: The student must complete the Associate of Science in Career Pilot in
no more than 27 months – 150%. Failure to complete a program within the time frame specified will
result in the student being dismissed by the Academy.
Evaluation Points: The student will be evaluated at pre-determined points in the program shown in
the table below.
Minimum Academic Achievement: A student must achieve the minimum grade point averages at
the specified evaluation points in order to remain enrolled as a regular student, as shown in the table
on the following page.
Successful Course Completion: A student must successfully complete the minimum number of the
credits attempted, based upon the maximum time frame in order to remain enrolled as a regular
student, as shown in the table below. A student who completes only the minimum requirements as
shown will clearly require the maximum time frame to complete a program. Maximum Time Frame
for Completion = 150% of program length.
SATISFACTORY ACADEMIC PROGRESS EVAULATION POINTS

DEGREE Evaluation Points Minimum Academic Achievement Successful Course Completion
25% of Maximum Length 6 months 2.0 24 credits
End of First Year 9 months 2.0 32 credits
50% of Maximum Length 13 months 2.0 48 credits
End of Program 18 months 2.0 65 credits
5.4 Academic Probation and Dismissal Policies

A student enrolled at the Paris Air Flight Academy must maintain a minimum cumulative GPA of
2.0 in order to remain in good academic standing. A student failing to maintain such GPA is subject
to being placed on Academic Probation or Dismissal as defined below.
Academic Probation: A student whose GPA falls below 2.0 will be placed on Academic probation
for one 15-week course term, subject to approval from the Director of Education. Students placed on
academic probation will be informed of it in writing. A student who shows satisfactory improvement
will be allowed to remain on academic probation until the minimum cumulative GPA of 2.0 is
achieved.
Academic Dismissal and Appeals: Students who fail to show improvement or achieve the minimum
cumulative GPA of 2.0 while on Academic Probation will be subject to Academic Dismissal from
the institution. The Director of Education will make the decision on placing students on Academic
Dismissal and will notify the affected students in writing. A student who is placed on Academic
Dismissal will have a permanent record of the dismissal in the transcripts.
A student who is academically dismissed is not allowed to continue enrollment. Such a student can
be readmitted to the program after at least one 15-week course term has passed. When readmitted
after a dismissal, a student is required to be on academic probation while repeating courses to raise
the cumulative GPA to the minimum guideline for good academic standing.
Students who have been placed on Academic Dismissal can appeal the decision based on mitigating
personal circumstances. The appeal has to be submitted in writing to the Director of Education, who
will make the final determination. If the appeal is approved, the student will be permitted to continue
coursework at Paris Air Flight Academy under academic probation status.
5.5 Leaves of Absence

A student may request a Leave of Absence (LOA), whenever it is necessary to take an academic
leave due to individual circumstances. The LOA allows a student to skip a term of 15 weeks at a
time, depending on the program. Students may take up to (2) LOA per year. A student may not begin
a Leave of Absence while an active course is in progress, rather a withdrawal procedure must be
initiated by the student. A LOA can begin upon the completion of the active course term. Students
must contact the Student Services Office to request the LOA form.
5.6 Withdrawal Procedure

1. A student choosing to withdraw from the school after the start of classes is to provide a written
notice to the Director of Education. The notice must include the expected last date of
attendance and be signed and dated by the student. The written notice may be submitted by
electronic transmission.
2. If special circumstances arise, a student may request, in writing, a leave of absence, which
should include the date the student anticipates the leave beginning and ending. The withdrawal
date will be the date the student is scheduled to return to from the leave of absence but fails to
do so.
3. A student will be determined to be withdrawn from the institution if the student misses 30
consecutive days for either the on-ground or online courses.
4. All refunds will be issued within 30 days of the date of determination of the withdrawal date.
5. Approval of the withdrawal will allow the student to re-register and continue in the program
on a date no later than the beginning of the start of the next class.
6. A student granted readmission is subject to the tuition rate and fees at the time of re-entry.
7. A student’s last date of attendance is the last day a student attended a course or lab, or had
online academically related activity. The last date of attendance is the date that the institution
has determined that a student is no longer in school.
5.7 Transfer of Credits

Paris Air Flight Academy will not accept of credits from another program from another post-
secondary institution. Students will enroll from the beginning of a program.
The transferability of credits you earn at Paris Air Flight Academy is at the complete discretion of
an institution to which you may seek to transfer. Acceptance of the credits you earn in the educational
program from Paris Air Flight Academy is also at the complete discretion of the institution to which
you may seek to transfer. If the credits that you earn at this institution are not accepted at the
institution to which you seek to transfer, you may be required to repeat some or all of your
coursework at that institution. For this reason, you should make certain that your attendance at this
institution will meet your educational goals. This may include contacting an institution to which you

6.0 Non-Academic Policies

6.1 Student’s Right to Cancel and Refund Policy
The student shall have the right to cancel the agreement and receive a full refund before the first
lesson and materials are received or the third business day after enrollment, whichever is later.
Cancellation is effective on the date the written notice of cancellation is made by the student. The
withdrawal date is determined with the student providing a written notification to the Institution. The
institution shall make the refund as per the calculation consistent with the Florida Administrative
Code. Refunds shall be made within 30 days of the date that the institution determines the date of
determination that the student has canceled or withdrawn (regardless if the institution delivered the
first lesson and materials before an effective cancellation notice was received).
In the event the institution does not accept the enrollment, a full refund of all monies will be made
to the applicant. An applicant may cancel his/her enrollment within three (3) business days from the
student signing of this enrollment agreement and all monies paid by an applicant (less non-refundable
fees paid) will be refunded within three (3) business days after the student signed the enrollment
agreement. An applicant subsequently requesting cancellation of enrollment prior to the class starting
date shall be entitled to a refund of all monies paid (less non-refundable fees paid). All monies due
the applicant will be refunded within 30 days of the date of determination from the cancellation.
The refund policy for students who have started attending and who have completed up to sixty (60)
percent of the period of attendance (each course) will result in a pro rata refund computed on the
number of hours completed to the total course hours. Should a student officially withdraw prior to
completing all courses, the Institution will refund 100% of the tuition for each course that has not
commenced. The institution shall pay or credit refunds within 30 days of the date of determination
of a student’s cancellation or withdrawal.
No refunds are due once the student has attended sixty (60) percent or more of their course credit
hours in any given period of attendance (each course). For purposes of determining a refund, a student
shall be considered to have withdrawn from an educational program when he or she withdraws or is
deemed withdrawn by the date of determination and in accordance with the withdrawal policy stated
in the institution’s catalog.
If an institution has collected money from a student for transmittal on the student’s behalf to a third
party for a bond, library usage, or fees for a license, application, or examination and the institution
has not paid the money to the third party at the time of the student’s withdrawal or cancellation, the
institution shall refund the money to the student within 30 days of the date of determination of the
student’s withdrawal or cancellation.
This institution shall refund any credit balance on the student’s account within 30 days of the date of
determination after the date of the student’s completion by means of completing all courses required
in the student’s program of study, or by withdrawal from, the educational program in which the
student was enrolled.
6.2 Financial Aid Policy

The school does not participate in either State or Federal financial aid programs, nor does it provide
financial aid directly to its students. A student enrolled in an unaccredited institution is not eligible
for federal financial aid programs. Paris Air Flight Academy does not provide financial assistance to
students.
6.3 Privacy Act

It is this institution’s intent to carefully follow the rules applicable under the Family Education Rights
and Privacy Act. It is our intent to protect the privacy of a student’s financial, academic and other
school records. We will not release such information to any individual without having first received
the student’s written request to do so, or unless otherwise required by law.
6.4 Academic Freedom

Paris Air Flight Academy is committed to assuring full academic freedom to all faculty. Confident
in the qualifications and expertise of its faculty members, the college encourages its faculty members
to exercise their individual judgments regarding the content of the assigned courses, organization of
topics and instructional methods, providing only that these judgments are made within the context of
the course descriptions as currently published, and providing that the instructional methods are those
official sanctioned by the institution, methods for which the institution has received oversight
approval. Paris Air Flight Academy encourages instructors and students to engage in discussion and
dialog. Students and faculty members alike are encouraged to freely express views, however
controversial, as long as they believe it would advance understanding in their specialized discipline
or sub-disciplines.
6.5 Harassment Policy

Paris Air Flight Academy takes allegations of harassment on the basis of sex, race, color, religion,
national origin, age, disability or sexual orientation very seriously. The institution strives to be free
of all improper or unlawful harassment.
Conduct on the part of faculty, staff or students, which violates this policy includes but is not limited
to:
• Unwelcome or unwanted sexual advances or requests for sexual favors, or insinuations that
a grade or other academic achievement is dependent upon the granting of sexual favors.
• Offensive conduct, verbal or written, including sexually explicit jokes, comments, innuendo
or other tasteless actions that would offend a reasonably sensitive person
• The display of sexually offensive pictures, posters, illustrations or objects
• Slurs, jokes, or ridicule based on race, ethnic or national origin, religion, gender or disability.
• Individuals who have questions or who experience harassment should immediately report the
offence to the Director of Education.
6.6 Anti-hazing Policy

Hazing takes various forms, but typically involves physical risks or mental distress through, for
example; but not limited to, humiliating, intimidating, or demeaning treatment. Hazing is any conduct
or initiation into any organization that willfully or recklessly endangers the physical or mental health
of any person. Imposition or use of hazing in any form of initiation or at any time is strictly prohibited.
Violation of this policy will result in disciplinary actions against the violator that will include
counseling and possible expulsion from the Academy.
The institution itself will not provide directly to another student, any contact information. Despite
this, if a student believes that he/she has been hazed by any other individual via any of the following
actions:
(a) Threats of violence;

(b) Hate speech or postings;
(c) Harassment;
(d) Peer pressure;
(e) Bribery;
(f) Psychological abuse; and
(g) Extortion
Then the student must bring this to the attention of the Director of Education for investigation.
Students proven to have participated in any form of hazing will be expelled from the institution.
6.7 Code of Conduct

The Student Code of Conduct provides information about policies, procedures and regulations for
students in preparation for professional activity of the highest standards. Each profession constrains
its members with both ethical responsibilities and disciplinary limits. In any presentation, creative,
artistic, or research, it is the ethical responsibility of each student to identify the conceptual sources
of the work submitted. Failure to do so is dishonest and is the basis for a charge of cheating or
plagiarism, which is subject to disciplinary action.
Cheating includes but is not limited to:

1. Plagiarism as explained below.
2. Submission of work that is not the student’s own for papers, assignments or exams.
3. Submission or use of falsified data.
4. Theft of or unauthorized access to an exam.
5. The use of an alternate, stand-in or proxy during an examination.
6. The use of unauthorized material including textbooks, notes or computer programs in the
preparation of an assignment or during an examination.
7. Supplying or communicating in any way unauthorized information to another student for the
preparation of an assignment or during an examination.
8. Collaboration in the preparation of an assignment, unless specifically permitted or required by
the instructor. Collaboration will usually be viewed by the school as cheating. Each student,
therefore, is responsible for understanding the policies of the department offering any course
as they refer to the amount of help and collaboration permitted in preparation of assignments.
9. Submission of the same work for credit in two courses without obtaining the permission of the
instructors beforehand. Plagiarism includes, but is not limited to, failure to indicate the source
with quotation marks or footnotes where appropriate if any of the following are reproduced in
the work submitted by a student:
1. A phrase, written or musical.
2. A graphic element.
3. A proof.
4. Specific language.
5. An idea derived from the work, published or unpublished, of another person.
Procedures in case of cheating or plagiarism:

Incidents of suspected academic disciplinary violations shall be handled initially at the level at which
the incident occurs (e.g., course or research/creative project) and at the department level. It will be
reported immediately to designate parties where appropriate. It shall receive second-level review(s)
in the manner outlined in the following section.
Initial Review, Decision and Action(s)

Initial review, decision and action(s) shall remain within the academic team. It will involve the
instructor(s) or academic supervisor(s) and, if desired, consultation with a third party from the
faculty. Instructors are free to discuss alleged violations informally with the student(s) thought to be
involved, without revealing the identity of any other students involved. Suspected violations that
would result in a penalty should be handled by the instructor(s), in direct communication with the
student(s) involved, within one week of the discovery of the suspected infraction and before the
imposition of a penalty.
After discussion with the student(s) involved and their response, the instructor(s) shall conclude,
within a reasonable period of time and based on available evidence, whether the suspected
violation(s) occurred. Instructors are encouraged to consult with their department/ program head
about the nature of the suspected violations, the nature of the evidence of these violations and the
range of penalties under consideration. If the conclusion is that the suspected violation(s) did occur,
the instructor(s) shall choose an appropriate penalty.
The most severe penalty available at this level of review and action shall be failure in the course or
dismissal from a project although instructors may also recommend a more severe penalty, which
retains the option to impose more severe penalties (e.g., suspension or dismissal from the program).
Elements to consider include prior incidents of academic disciplinary action can be found in a
student’s record which is readily available from the Director of Education. The department/program
head may discuss the issue with a student and choose to convene a disciplinary hearing according to
the procedures of the department/program.
The student shall be notified immediately, in writing, of this decision, the basis for this decision and
the penalty imposed. This notification will come from the instructor and/or department/program head
depending on the penalty involved. Students whose penalty is failure in the course in question will
not be allowed to drop the course and will be informed. Students should also be informed at this time
of their right (and attendant procedures) for an appeal.
Reporting of Initial Action(s)

A copy of the letter outlining the initial decision and action to the student(s) involved in cases of
academic disciplinary violations should submitted. The Director of Education will maintain the
central record of academic disciplinary violations and actions. If the head of student affairs is aware
of information on prior incidents of academic disciplinary actions in the student’s record, he or she
will communicate that information to the department/program head and give the department/program
head the opportunity to impose an appropriate sanction.
Second-level Review and Action(s)

A second-level review of an initial decision and action follows from at least one of two sources: (1)
appeal by the student(s) involved because the student deems the penalty inappropriate and/or believes
that improper procedure has been followed, (2) recommendation by the instructor, that the student
be permanently expelled from the school.
If an appeal is made or a second-level action appears warranted, the Director of Education will
determine what action should be taken. The Director of Education may decide to deny the appeal or
waive the opportunity for a second-level action. They can also forward the case to the
department/program head for additional consideration, order a new or different penalty or convene a
Review Committee meeting for additional investigation of facts and/or determination of appropriate
sanctions.
6.8 Non-Academic Disciplinary Action

Violations of the Harassment or Discrimination Policy of this institution will become part of the
student’s record. Depending on the severity and/or frequency of the violation(s), the Faculty may
take disciplinary action, including administrative withdrawal from the institution. A student who has
become subject to disciplinary action may submit an appeal to the Director of Education per the
Grievances policy.
6.9 Student Grievance Procedures

Paris Air Flight Academy is responsible to uphold its students’ rights and ensure that the non-
discrimination policy is applied for students who choose to file a grievance against the institution for
reasons involving discrimination, harassment, violation of a policy, or other.
Students must use the following procedure to file a grievance:

1. Students should first attempt to address the issue with the responsible party in writing. A copy
of the communication shall be preserved in the course messaging system.
2. If a satisfactory solution cannot be found, the student may submit a grievance form to the
Director of Education within 21 calendar days of the alleged incident. The grievance form is
available upon request from the Student Services Office.
3. The Director of Education shall issue a decision within 2 weeks of the grievance submission.
4. The student may appeal the decision to Paris Air Flight Academy within 2 weeks of receiving
the committee’s decision, and a final decision will be made by the Director of Education
within 2 weeks of the student appeal.
NOTE: If the complaint cannot be resolved after exhausting the institution’s grievance procedure,
the student may file a complaint with the Commission for Independent Education.
6.10 Student Records and Transcripts

Student records for all students are maintained indefinitely. Transcripts are kept permanently.
Students may inspect and review their educational records. To do so, a student should submit a
written request identifying the specific information to be reviewed. Should a student find upon review
that records that are inaccurate or misleading, the student may request that errors be corrected. In the
event that a difference of opinion exists regarding the existence of errors, a student may ask that a
meeting be held to resolve the matter.
Each student's file will contain student's records, including a transcript of grades earned. The first
copy of the official transcript is provided at no charge. Subsequent copies are available upon advance
payment of the transcript fee of $10.00 per transcript. Transcripts will only be released to the student
