Accordingly, GIPs are not considered a part of the Mactech program under the scope of this contract.

3. Student Contractual Obligations
The student agrees that the objective in pursuing this Mactech Distance Education

program of study is to complete the course requirements as described in the Course Outline and obtain the Completion Certification. In keeping with this objective, the student agrees to submit assignments in accordance with the Assignment Submission Schedule and courteously cooperate with Mactech Staff.

5. Performance Standards
To graduate, students require an overall average of 70%, with no mark below 65% in an individual subject. Honors status requires a minimal course average of 90%, no subject average below 85%, and no failed assignments.

6. Course Duration, Official Start and Finish Dates
HomeED courses have a definite duration of 1080 hours or 1100 hours, or 315 days, or 45 weeks. For refund purposes under the Nova Scotia Tuition Refund Policy, the course length is measured in days.

All Mactech students have withdrawal privileges during the defined duration of their program. Students deciding to withdraw during that period may be entitled to a partial refund as outlined in the Official Government Regulations known as the Tuition Refund Policy, a copy of which the applicant has received and read.

In the event of a withdrawal, the student must fully compensate the school for any non-refundable, compulsory fees paid on behalf of the student by the school.

9. Self-Directed Study
Mactech programs have no formal instruction in the traditional sense. The student is the instructor. Tutorial assistance and guidance is provided to indicate where answers may be found in the textual material.

10. Disclosure
Applicants must disclose any and all preexisting conditions, medical or otherwise, that could affect the outcome of their program, prior to admission. Only circumstances fully disclosed prior to admission will be considered relevant to this contract. Once admitted, any changes in circumstances will be viewed within the context of this contract.

13. Right of Refusal
Mactech reserves the right to refuse, without explanation, any Application for Admission.
