Kings and/or Pine Manor reserves the right to determine the best study plan for any student and to exclude from class any student who, for reasons of performance or ability, is not qualified to enter or remain in that class. For GO: Prepared, students are accepted into a study plan with understanding that successful completion of the study plan is contingent on satisfactory attendance and attainment of specified grades.
Students who do not meet the criteria for successful completion will not be allowed to proceed with their original study plan. Students may be offered alternative study options, including, but not limited to, retaking their course, and/or a change in their study plan. A change in study plan may involve additional time and cost with regard to tuition and accommodation fees.
Students are accepted in good faith into the Kings program on the basis that the certification they provide meets the admissions criteria. If, however, the results from assessments upon arrival indicate that a student’s level of English or academic proficiency is significantly different than the one claimed and is lower than the one required for their program, then the student will be formally advised of the results and of applicable options. A change in study plan may involve additional time and cost with regard to tuition and accommodation fees.

Students are accepted in good faith into the program on the basis that the certification they provide meets the admissions criteria. If, however, the results from assessments upon arrival indicate that a student’s level of English or academic proficiency is significantly different than the one claimed and is lower than the one required for their program, then the student will be formally advised of the results and of applicable options. A change in study plan may involve additional time and cost with regard to tuition and accommodation fees.
A student, either individually or through his/her representative, who has submitted any documentation or certification to meet the admissions criteria which is later found to have been falsified is subject to immediate expulsion from the program.
If your work, attendance, or conduct is unsatisfactory you will be subject to the UWO-Fox Cities and/or Kings disciplinary procedures. These procedures may lead ultimately to suspension or expulsion. Travel and other costs incurred as a result of suspension or expulsion must be met by the student or student’s guardian. Attendance is compulsory for all students and is a condition of a US student visa.
