Admissions
| MTIC is devoted to high quality education for massage therapy. We teach
the fundamentals that provide the base for developing advanced skills.
Special emphasis is placed on massage skills, soft tissue normalization,
neuromuscular balancing, the use of efficient biomechanics and postural
balance. We use an integrative approach to acquaint the student with a
broad spectrum of ideas and methods used in massage and holistic health.
Prospective students are encouraged to schedule a tour with the MTIC school
administration team several weeks prior to the desired admission date. MTIC
will advise each prospective student in making enrollment decisions. After
touring the school prospective students are provided with a free one hour
massage in our Student Clinic to help gauge the capability of an MTIC student.
Prospective students are also welcome to sit in on or observe a current class.
It is the philosophy of the school to admit all people who have a strong desire
to learn massage and have the ability to appreciate and take advantage of the
unique curriculum at MTIC.
Each applicant who qualifies for admissions will be assessed for qualities
appropriate for the practice of massage, including education, motivation,
level of maturity, ability and communication skills. Students receive
a free catalog when they call to request one, or when they come to the
school for an interview or a tour. |
Equal Opportunity Policy |
| MTIC does not discriminate on the basis of race, gender, age, sexual
orientation, religion, national or ethnic origin, disability or handicap,
or other status when admitting students to its programs. Our requirements
are uniformly applied for all students. The administrators of the school
are designated to ensure that the school efforts comply with this policy.
We make accommodations for students with disabilities on an individual
basis, depending on the situation. In most cases, the special considerations
require additional expenses beyond our regular fees. In this case, the
student will be responsible for any additional costs. Our training is
physically challenging in itself, so those who are physically challenged
may not be able to benefit from our training.

Financial Aid |
| MTIC provides financial assistance for those who qualify. Students may
apply for a student loan through the College Assist lender
consortium. MTIC also offers
a variety of in house payment plans |
Learning Assistance |
| MTIC Faculty guide and support their students through encouraging them to
practice giving and receiving massage techniques, to take advantage of the
reviews every 4 to 6 weeks to make up time and content, and to be available
for tutoring at a standard rate of $25 per hour, etc. |
Student Advising |
| The program is designed to automatically guide students throughout the
educational process. The Chief Administrator and the Director are available
to advise students in any way possible during their educational pursuit.
When a student requests a referral or it becomes apparent that they need
outside professional assistance, they are referred to resident professionals
within the campus facility, or to other appropriate professionals.
The Faculty Coordinator is available for academic direction. In cases
where a student is not making satisfactory progress in a course, or in the
program, the Lead Teacher Assistant or Faculty Coordinator will meet with
the student. The Chief Administrator will also meet with and review the file
of each student to ascertain that the student is making appropriate progress,
and is meeting an agreed upon plan. |
