Pass/fail scores are utilized at this institution. Evaluation of student achievement will be based on meeting the objectives for each program. Grades are awarded on a pass / fail basis. Students must achieve a “pass” rating on all assignments and projects in a module or sprint to progress in the program and to achieve completion.

This institution's policy on attendance tracking in an asynchronous setting is based on the premise that regular interaction with the content by the student, as well as regular and substantive interaction with instructors, tutors, and fellow students, has significant value in the learning process.

The student must demonstrate regular and substantive interaction, defined as demonstrating engagement with the materials for approximately 20 hours per week, and:

• Posting to the course discussion board substantive comments relevant to the subject;
• Applied effort on the module/sprint content, concepts, practice materials & project;
• Submission of sprint projects.

Each program is comprised of modules of instruction, and each module contains "sprints" – 1, 2 or 3-week long topics of instruction consisting of theory, practice, and final sprint project. Each sprint is unlocked according to the predefined schedule of the course as well as student progress. Students will have access to the next sprint’s theory and practice material as soon as they have submitted their project for the preceding sprint, however students will not be able to begin work on that sprint’s project until the previously submitted project has been accepted with passing marks.

If students have not submitted their project for the sprint by the time that sprint is scheduled to complete, a student can take advantage of an extension week(s), which students can use to prolong the sprint length if they need more time.
Each program has a limited number of such extension weeks, and this number varies based on the program length and difficulty.
Students may request up to 3 hours of individualized tutoring per week. Requests for 1-on-1 tutoring beyond 3 hours in a week may be denied. If a student does not cancel their scheduled tutoring at least 24 hours in advance, the session will be counted toward their weekly cap. Group events and meetings with individual Success Managers do not count towards this cap.

TripleTen may suspend students’ participation in the programs under one or several the following circumstances:
(a) if a student fails to pay its tuition fees or TripleTen is unable to process the payment;
(b) if a student breaches TripleTen Terms of Use or violates any policy in this catalog and/or the Code of Conduct;
(c) if a student fails the programs’ deadlines for submitting tasks or projects. Continued failure to achieve satisfactory academic progress may result in dismissal from the program.
The suspension will last until complete elimination of the reason or circumstances causing such suspension. If the student failed to fix the circumstances leading to its suspension within three business days following TripleTen’s notice of suspension, TripleTen may permanently terminate the student’s access to the program.

If the student wishes to appeal their suspension, the student is to submit a written request for an administrative academic review to the school administration:

Each student's file will contain student's records including a copy of the signed enrollment agreement, Certificate of Completion, transcript of grades earned, copies of all documents signed by the student including contract, financial ledger, refund information as applicable, complaints received from the student or student advisories related to academic progress. Transcripts will only be released to the student upon receipt of a written request. No transcript will be issued until all tuition and other fees due the institution are paid current.

Cancellation Policy & 100% Refund Policy
If you cancel your enrollment, all payments made by you, or on your behalf, will be refunded under the this 100% Refund Policy. You may cancel your enrollment and receive a full refund of 100% any time within 14 calendar days from either:

1. the date you sign your enrollment agreement,
2. the date you make an initial payment,
3. first log-in to the course as shown in the Platform activity logs recording / first log-in to the Discord TripleTen server, or
4. the program Start Date, whichever is later.

Both Cancellation & Withdrawal can be effectuated by initiating the Refund Survey form found here TripleTen Refunds: which serves as both an exit interview and official cancellation/withdrawal notice. In the event of dispute over timely notice, the burden of proof of service rests on the student.
Any student will also be returned all monies paid if any of the following circumstances may occur:

• The enrollment of the student was procured as the result of any misrepresentation through advertising, promotional materials, or representations by the owner or representative of the school
• TripleTen cancels the program, or
• TripleTen ceases operation

Withdrawal & Pro Rata Refund Policy
For purposes of calculating a refund, the date of withdrawal/drop is the date when the Refund Survey was received by TripleTen and/or when the student is notified of termination for a violation of a published school policy which provides for termination, whichever is later.
Students may notify TripleTen of their intent to withdraw and initiate the refund process by completing the Refund Survey form found here TripleTen Refunds. When a student drops, TripleTen will determine how much of the tuition and fees he/she/they are eligible to retain utilizing the institutional Pro Rata Refund Calculation Policy below. After calculations are applied, a student may owe a debit balance to TripleTen, depending upon payments made by the date of withdrawal/drop.
If the student withdraws at any point beyond the cancellation period (14th day after beginning the course as defined in the Cancellation Policy), the refund policy for students who have completed 60 percent or less of the enrollment period shall be a pro rata refund. A pro rata refund shall be no less than the total amount owed by the student for the portion of the educational program provided, subtracted from the amount paid by the student, calculated as follows:

• The amount owed equals the daily charge for the program (total institutional charge, divided by the number of days in the enrollment period for the program), multiplied by the number of days student was scheduled to enroll, prior to withdrawal.

The refund is calculated using the following steps:

1. Determine the total charges agreed for the enrollment period for that student, as stated on their enrollment agreement.
2. Divide this figure by the total number of calendar days constituting the enrollment period.
3. The calculation in step 2 yields the daily charge.
4. The amount owed by the student for instruction received is derived by multiplying the total calendar days in the period of attendance as of the student’s last date of attendance by the daily charge for instruction.
5. The refund shall be any amount in excess of the figure derived in step 4 that was paid by the student.

Students are not eligible to receive any refund following the completion of more than 60% of the enrollment period for the program.
The institution shall issue a refund for unearned institutional charges within 30 days of a student’s cancellation or withdrawal.
Enrollment period for the purposes of the Refund Policy (calendar days):
