LEAVES OF ABSENCE
Leaves of absence may be granted, but will not exceed one hundred eighty (180) calendar days in any twelve (12) month

leave of absence. A written request for leave of absence is required and must be signed by both the student and the
financial aid director or his/her designee. This request should be submitted before the effective date of the leave of
absence, unless unforeseen circumstances prevent the student from doing so. When it may not be possible to obtain a
written request from a student prior to the leave of absence, the institution would then be permitted to grant the leave of
absence and collect the request at a later date.
Approved leaves of absence are viewed as temporary interruptions in a student’s attendance. They are granted when there
is a reasonable expectation that the student will be able to return to Camelot College.
There are some instances where it may be appropriate to permit a student to take more than one leave of absence within a
twelve (12) month period, as long as the number of days of the leave of absence does not exceed one hundred eighty (180)
days. Additional leaves may be granted for military reasons, jury duty or circumstances that are covered under the Family
and Medical Leave Act of 1993 (FMLA):
7
a.
Birth of a son or daughter of the student and the need to care for that son or daughter - for twelve (12)
months from the date of the birth of the child..

Placement of a son or daughter with the student for adoption or foster care - for twelve (12) months
beginning on the date of the placement.
c.
Need to care for the student’s spouse, or a son, daughter, or parent, if the spouse, son, daughter or parent
has a serious health condition; and
d.
Serious health condition that makes the student unable to function as a student.
Camelot College will permit the student to complete the course work that he/she began prior to the leave of absence.
Therefore, when a student returns from a LOA, the student will be continuing his/her education where he/she left off.
If a student does not return to the institution at the expiration of an approved leave of absence, the student’s withdrawal
date will be the last day of academic attendance as determined by the attendance records on file. In addition, the grace
period of loan repayment is also determined by this date. In some instances, depending on the length of the leave of
absence, the student will have exhausted the grace period and the repayment of the Title IV loan may begin immediately.
PRIOR CREDIT
Camelot College will grant academic credit to those students who have successfully completed with a 2.0 average the
substantially same subjects on a post-secondary level as listed in the Camelot College catalog. These credits must have
been earned at an institution recognized by the U.S. Dept. Of Education. It is the student's responsibility to have official
transcripts sent to Camelot College upon enrollment, no later that five (5) days after the first day of class. The transcripts
and/or prior school's catalog will be reviewed. Written verification will be obtained and placed in each student's file. Tuition
and fees will be adjusted accordingly upon receipt verifications.

hour is granted for every fifty (50) minutes of classroom instruction with a ten (10) minute break attached to the fifty (50)

FINANCIAL AID
Camelot College offers a variety of financial aid programs for entering and continuing students. The primary purpose of financial
aid is to provide the necessary financial assistance to students who are in need of financial aid to complete their academic
endeavors. We believe that when an individual is given the opportunity to develop his capacity, that person not only enhances
himself, but also contributes greatly to society.
Financial aid will be offered to our students only after a determination that the resources of the family are insufficient to meet the
student's educational cost. The school provides student financial aid to eligible applicants, and priority is given to students who
have the most financial need. Financial aid awards are only made to our students after all of the entrance requirements have
been met. Students must maintain eligibility to receive financial aid.
FINANCIAL AID RECIPIENT SELECTION
Awards are determined and granted based upon financial need. Need is determined by evaluating the information provided on
the aid application. Students with greater need are given priority when awards are determined. Handicapped students should
inform the Financial Aid Officer since expenses may be higher for the handicapped, which would increase the opportunity to
receive aid.
Camelot College provides the following: Regular Title IV, U.S. Department of Education financial aid programs and institutional
loan programs.
FEDERAL PELL GRANTS
This is the largest Federal grant program. Unlike loans, grants do not have to be paid back. The amount of the grant depends
on family size and income. Exact grant amounts depend on the student’s expected family contributions and cost of attendance.
Pell grants are ordered and disbursed to the school electronically via EFT (Electronic Funds Transfer). Students who attend
class for at least one week are eligible for a first pell grant disbursement. Second and subsequent disbursements are ordered
when students reach the necessary clock/credit hours and are maintaining satisfactory progress standards. Please see the
Financial Aid Office for more details.
FEDERAL SUPPLEMENTAL EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITY GRANTS
A Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG) is for students with exceptional financial need. This grant does
15
not have to be paid back. However, there is no guarantee every eligible student will receive this grant. Awards are made to those
with the greatest need. SEOG grants are ordered and disbursed to the school electronically via EFT (Electronic Funds Transfer).
More information can be obtained in the Financial Aid Office.
FEDERAL WORK STUDY
Camelot College has a Federal Work Study grant program available to provide the students with jobs to assist with the
educational costs incurred. Jobs are located on campus and off campus and are provided to eligible students with financial need.
Work Study funds do not have to be paid back, however, students must work for the amount of funds granted to them. For more
information, inquire at the Financial Aid Office.
DIRECT LOAN PROGRAMS
Direct Loan Programs (Federal Direct Loan Programs) are guaranteed student loans that must be paid back at the completion
of the student's program. The loans Camelot College offer are the Federal Subsidized and Unsubsidized Stafford Loans, and
Federal PLUS Loans. Direct Loan funds are also ordered and disbursed electronically via EFT (Electronic Funds Transfer).
Students must be in attendance for a minimum of thirty (30) days to receive a first disbursement. Subsequent disbursements
are ordered when students achieve the necessary clock/credit hours and are maintaining satisfactory progress standards. See
“The Student Guide” or ask the Financial Aid Administrator for details.
INSTITUTIONAL LOANS
This loan is granted by our institution for those students who do not qualify for either a complete Pell Grant or no grant at all.
It can also be used for those students that do not qualify for any Title IV funding or students who complete their course with a
remaining balance. This loan is granted to students based on need. This loan must be repaid upon completion or immediately
after the student graduates or leaves the school. The minimum repayment for this loan is 25% of the remaining balance above
$250.00 upon completion and the remaining balance in equal monthly payments month until the remaining balance is paid in
full. Balances under $250.00 must be paid in full prior to graduation to participate. This loan is granted only after all entrance
requirements have been met. The student must also make satisfactory academic progress. The application for this loan must
be made when a student has been determined to have an unmet need. Institutional loans are serviced by the Business Office,
Partner's Financial Service and CPS Financial Services.
ACG
The Academic Competitiveness Grant (ACG) is for first and second year undergraduate students. These students must have
had a rigorous academic study in high school. These students must receive a Pell Grant in the same award year, be enrolled
in one- or two-year certificate program, enrolled in the first or second year of a program of study at an eligible two-year or fouryear degree-granting institution, have successfully completed a rigorous secondary school program, not have been enrolled

RETURN TO TITLE IV FUNDS CALCULATION
AND THE INSTITUTIONAL REFUND POLICY
The Return to Title IV Funds Formula for Title IV recipients, and the Institutional Refund Policy for all students, will be calculated
for students who terminate their enrollment prior to the completion of their program. The Return to Title IV Funds Formula will
17
determine the amount of Title IV funds that the student has not earned, which must be returned at the time of withdrawal. The
Institutional Refund Policy will determine the amount of tuition liability a student may owe to the school at the time of withdrawal.
Students who wish to officially withdraw from Camelot College must speak to a Financial Aid Officer and the Financial Aid
Officer will assist the student in completing the Withdrawal Form. The withdrawal date will be based on the last date of
attendance.
RETURN TO TITLE IV FUNDS CALCULATION
For purposes of the Return to Title IV Funds calculation, a Title IV recipient is any student who has begun class and
established eligibility for his or her Title IV grant and loans, even if he or she has not received all of the disbursements prior
to withdrawing. For all Title IV recipients, federal regulations require that the amount of Earned Title IV Aid be calculated.
Any Title IV funds received for the payment period that exceed the calculated amount of Earned Title IV funds must be
returned to the applicable Title IV program. If the amount of Earned Title IV Aid exceeds the amount of Title IV Aid
disbursed and the student did not receive all of the Title IV Aid for which he or she was eligible to receive, a post-withdrawal
disbursement will be available to the student and parent, in the case of a PLUS loan.
Calculating the Percentage Completed:
CREDIT-HOUR PROGRAMS
The percentage completed is calculated by dividing the total number of calendar days through the date of withdrawal by the
total number of calendar days in the payment period. Scheduled breaks of 5 days or more are not included.
CLOCK-HOUR PROGRAMS
The percentage completed is calculated by dividing the total number of scheduled clock hours by the total number of clock
hours in the payment period.
Determining the Percentage of Earned and Unearned Title IV Aid: If the student completed 60 percent or less of the
scheduled clock hours in the payment period, the percentage of Earned Title IV Aid is equal to the Percentage Completed.
However, if the student has completed more than 60 percent of the scheduled clock hours in the payment period, the
percentage of Earned Title IV for the scheduled clock hours in the payment period is 100 percent. The percentage of
Unearned Title IV Aid is the compliment of the percentage of Earned Title IV Aid.
Calculating the Amount of Earned and Unearned Title IV Aid: The sum of the Total Title IV Aid disbursed for the
payment period and the Total Title IV Aid that could have been disbursed for the payment period equals the Total Title IV Aid
for the payment period. The Total Title IV Aid is multiplied by the percentage of Earned Title IV Aid to equal the Amount of
Earned Title IV Aid for the payment period. The Amount of Earned Title IV Aid is subtracted from the Total Title IV Aid
disbursed for the payment period.
If the Amount of Earned Title IV Aid is greater than the Total Title IV Aid disbursed, the student or parent, in the case of a
PLUS loan, may be eligible for a Post-Withdrawal Disbursement. If the Amount of Earned Title IV Aid is less than the Total
Title IV Aid disbursed, Title IV Aid will have to be repaid.
Repayment of Unearned Title IV Aid: Camelot College will return the lesser of the Total Unearned Title IV Aid for the
payment period or the Total Institutional Charges for the payment period multiplied by the percentage of Unearned Title IV
Aid. The student will return the difference between the Total Unearned Title IV Aid and the amount returned by Camelot
College.
18
The amount of Returned Title IV Aid will be allocated to the Title IV programs in the following order as prescribed
by law:
1. Unsubsidized Direct Loans
6. Federal PLUS Loans
2. Subsidized Direct Loans
7. FSEOG Grants
3. Federal Perkins Loans
8. Teach Grants
4. Direct PLUS Loans
9. Iraq and Afghanistan Service Grant
5. Federal Pell Grants
10. Student
Additionally, any unearned Title IV Aid to be returned by the student to the Federal Pell Grant or FSEOG Programs will be
reduced by 50 percent. Camelot College will return any Title IV Aid due within 30 days of the date of determination of the
withdrawal.
INSTITUTIONAL REFUND POLICY
The institutional refund policy is based on institutional charges assessed for the payment period. If a student withdraws
before the first day of classes, he or she will receive a 100 percent refund.
If a student withdraws after classes begin, the school will retain the same percentage as the percentage of time the student
has attended school based on days attended.
If a student withdraws after the 60 percent point in the payment period, Camelot College will retain 100 percent of the tuition
and fees and other institutional charges. In addition, if a student withdraws, Camelot College will retain 100 percent of the
fees, books and equipment not returned at the time of withdrawal. For those who contract for room, Camelot College will
retain a non-refundable move-in fee and a daily room rate based on the amount of time spent in housing.
Refunds will be returned in the following order:
1. Unsubsidized Direct Loans
6. Federal PLUS Loans
2. Subsidized Direct Loans
7. FSEOG Grants
3. Federal Perkins Loans
8. Teach Grants
4. Direct PLUS Loans
9. Iraq and Afghanistan Service Grant
5. Federal Pell Grants
10. Student

Incomplete Make Up
Incomplete -
For Advanced Medical Assistant students, incomplete grades must be made up no later that the end of
the next five (5) week grading period. Cosmetology students must make up all incomplete grades by the
end of their rotation cycle. Failure to do so will automatically result in the grade becoming an “F” grade,
except in cases where exceptions are made by the Education Director. “I” grades are not computed into
the cumulative grade point average but the quarter credit hours or clock hous are counted as course
attempts. If an exception is not made by the Education Director, then the "I" grade will become an "F"
grade and computed into the cumulative grade average.
Repeats -
The student will receive the higher of the grades for all courses that are repeated. However, both
attempts will count in calculating attempted clock hours or quarter credit hours and cumulative grade
point average.
Withdrawals -
Students who withdraw from a course before the end of a five (5) week grading period will receive a "W"
and will have to repeat that course if they re-enter school. The clock hours or quarter credit hours will
count as clock hours or quarter credit hours attempted. Cosmetology students who withdraw will receive
credits for hours earned up to the date of withdrawal. The "W" grade does not count in the student's
grade point average.
Make-Up-
Cosmetology students who have already earned a grade in a course they have previously taken will
receive a “M” grade in the same course when taken again to complete remaining hours.
Transfer Credit-
All transfer credit accepted into a student’s program of student will count as quarter credit hours or clock
hours attempted and earned. Students must submit an official transcript to the Education Supervisor
within five (5) days of their first scheduled day of class to have transfer credit/hours considered. To be
considered, transfer credits must have been earned within two (2) years of the date of enrollment and
substantially equivalent to our course offering.
Program Transfer- Students who transfer from one program into another will be treated as a new student enrolling into a
program into the institution for Standards of Satisfactory Progress purposes. Transfer Credit will be
considered if applicable.
PASS/FAIL GRADES
We currently offer pass/fail grades for study hall courses. Study hall courses do not count toward academic credit in regard to
21
completion of an academic program. The student will receive a “P” (pass) or “NP” (not pass) grade after completing this
course. This grade will not be calculated in the GPA for the student.

NOTIFICATION OF RIGHTS UNDER FERPA
(FAMILY EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS & PRIVACY ACT)
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act(FERPA) affords students certain rights with respect to their education records.
They are:
(1) The right to inspect and review the student’s education records within 45 days of the day Camelot College receives a
request for access. Students should submit to the Director of Education, written requests that identify the record(s) they wish
to inspect. Arrangements will then be made to pull the necessary files for access and the student will be notified in writing of
the time and place where the records may be inspected. If the records are not maintained by the College Official to whom the
request was submitted, that Official shall advise the student of the correct Official to whom the request should be addressed.
(2)The right to request the amendment of the student’s education records that the student believes are inaccurate or
misleading. Students may ask the Education Director to amend a record that they believe is inaccurate or misleading.
He/She should write the Education Director for the record, clearly identify the part of the record they want changed, and
specify why it is inaccurate or misleading. If the Education Director decides not to amend the record as requested by the
student, they will notify the student of the decision and advise the student of his or her right to a hearing regarding the request
for amendment. Additional information regarding the hearing procedures, including the time and place of the hearing will be
provided to the student when notified of the right to a hearing.
(3)The right to consent to disclosures of personally identifiable information contained in the student’s education records,
except to the extent that FERPA authorizes disclosure with consent. One exception which permits disclosure without consent
is disclosure to school officials with legitimate educational interests. A school official is a person employed by the College in
an administrative, supervisory, academic or research, or support staff position whom the College has contracted (such as an
attorney, auditor, or collection agent); a person serving on the Advisory Board; or a student serving on an official committee,
such as a disciplinary or grievance committee, or assisting another school official in performing his or her tasks. A school
official has a legitimate educational interest if the official needs to review an education record in order to fulfill his or her
professional responsibility. Upon request, the College discloses education records without consent to officials of another
school in which a student seeks or intends to enroll. Camelot College may disclose Directory Information unless the student
requests that the information not be disclosed. Request for information to not be disclosed should be directed in writing to the
Education Director. Directory Information is defined as: information contained in an education record of a student that would

comply with the requirements of FERPA. The name and address of the Office that administers FERPA are:
Family Policy Compliance Office
U.S. Department of Education

Washington, DC 20202-5901
STUDENT COMPLAINT PROCEDURES
Any student having a complaint or grievance should file the complaint in writing to the Department Coordinator. The Department
Coordinator will set up a meeting with the student voicing the complaint within two (2) days to determine the nature of the
complaint and attempt to solve the problem. If the student is not satisfied that the problem has been satisfactorily solved, then
the student should put the complaint in writing to the President for final determination. Within three (3) days a meeting will be
scheduled with all parties involved to determine a solution to the problem. If the student does not feel that this solution has
satisfactorily resolved the problem or if the student has complaints relative to the actions of school officials, then the student
should send a copy of the written and signed complaint(s) to the Louisiana State Board of Regents, Proprietary Schools Section,
P.O. Box 3677, Baton Rouge, Louisiana 70821-3677 or call (225) 342-7084, only after the student has unsuccessfully attempted

Council for Independent Colleges and Schools (ACICS) provides complaint procedures for the filing of complaints against
24
accredited institutions. ACICS requires that the complainant have exhausted all complaint and grievance procedures provided
under the institutional policy. Should such a complaint be filed, ACICS will review the matter to determine whether there may have
been any violation of its criteria and standards, and can take action only if it determines there to have been such a violation.

JEANNE CLERY DISCLOSURE OF CAMPUS SECURITY and CRIME STATISTICS ACT
Camelot College has established institutional security policies that ensure that all students and staff are able to obtain quality
education and perform work duties within a secure environment, virtually free from intentional harm.
Camelot College has security staffing that consists of 1) security guards, who have the responsibility of campus security, but are
not considered campus police, and 2) administrative personnel, namely President, Vice President, and Director of Education who
have significant responsibility for student and campus activities, including, but not limited to, student housing and campus judicial
proceedings. The primary responsibility of the security guards include monitoring the entrances and exiting of persons entering
campus properties and making sure that non-students are not allowed to remain on campus longer than is necessary to complete
their business. While the entire institution is accessible to the general public, housing areas are restricted to students, their family
members, and staff members.
All staff and students are encouraged to report any crime, including possible sex offenses to the President, Vice President and/or
security guards. Camelot College allows victims or witnesses to report crimes on a voluntary, confidential basis for inclusion in
the annual disclosure of crime statistics. Voluntary reports should be reported to the office of the President and/or Vice President.
The administrator to whom the incident was reported has the discretion to investigate the alleged violation in an appropriate time
frame. Any student who commits any crime on campus is subject to being reported to police authorities and expelled from school
if it is proven that the student is involved.
Campus security personnel do not have arrest authority but are mandated to call state and local police agencies in all cases of
criminal activity. Camelot College maintains a daily crime log of any crime that occurred within the parol jurisdiction of our campus
,security department. We record the date of the crime, nature, time, general location and disposition of the compliant. We update
the log with new information when available two (2) business days after the information is received unless the disclosure is
prohibited by law or will jeopardize confidentiality.
Students at Camelot College are made aware of the campus security policies and practices during their initial orientation period.
These sessions occur at the onset of each academic session. It is at this time students are also encouraged to be responsible
for their own security as well as the security of others. Crime prevention is discussed in detail that covers all possible instances.
Staff and faculty are made abreast of these same policies and practices during their regularly scheduled staff meetings. In
addition, all crime reports and other emergencies that occur on campus are posted in public areas on campus for public
information within forty eight (48) hours of the incident.
Camelot College students are advised to report alleged sexual misconduct to local enforcement authorities in accordance with
the established crime reporting policy. Camelot College has adopted a Violence Against Women Policy (VAWA Policy) to help
to ensure a safe environment on our campus. This policy addresses the following: rape, acquaintance rape, and any other forcible
and nonforcible sex offenses. Additional topics are covered during regularly scheduled dormitory meetings, school assemblies,
etc.
Victims of sex offenses are afforded the following:
a)
On-campus counseling with a member of the administration and/or a third party counselor as required and/or requested with
the provision that referrals to off campus counseling,
b)
The student has the option to notify the appropriate law enforcement officials, including local police, with the institution’s
assistance, if this assistance is requested. Mental health, or other student services are available.
c)
Changes in academic and living situations are available after an alleged sex offense occurs should the student request
25
and changes are reasonably securable.
d)
Situations that result in on-campus disciplinary actions of alleged sex offenses include:
1) The entitlement of both the accuser and accused to the same opportunities to be present during a disciplinary
proceeding.
2) The provision that both the accused and accuser be informed of the outcome of any institutional disciplinary actions.
In the event of the commission of a sexual offense occurring on-campus:
a)
Students are encouraged to immediately notify the designated personnel and/or administrator that the student feels
comfortable relating the incident to. For students residing in on-campus housing, should the department coordinator
not be available the student is to notify their resident assistant.
b)
The department coordinator or resident assistant receiving the initial allegation should write the incident up and
forward this report to the President and or/Vice President.
c)
Upon receiving the written report of the alleged sex offense, the designated administrator will begin an investigation
of the allegation.
d)
Any evidence or proof relative to the commission of a criminal offense should be preserved until said allegation has
been thoroughly investigated and final disposition reached. This evidence or proof should remain in the custody of
either the Vice President or President.
e)
Victims are encouraged to seek an immediate medical examination.
In the event of the commission of a sexual offense occurring off-campus, the student is encouraged to notify the appropriate law
enforcement agency. Upon returning to Camelot College, the student is to inform the administration of the occurrence and forward
copies of the report files for inclusion in the student’s record.
The Annual Disclosure of Crime Statistics Report is prepared by the President, Vice President and security personnel, It is based
on filed incident reports. These reports are completed for every reportable incident and maintained in a binder located in the
Business Office. The statistics are tallied and compiled for the disclosure report. The next disclosure for crime is October 1, 2015
to display statistics for the previous three years. Statistics do not include local police department statistics. These are not
available for our specific area via local statistics.
According to the 2015 Annual Security Report, the crime statistics for the last three (3) years are as follows:
