Entrance Requirements and Procedures

Applicants must be at least 18 years of age and have a high School Diploma, GED, a recognized state equivalency, or an academic transcript of higher education. Applicants should be in good health, demonstrate decency of character, and be conscious of wellness concepts and healthy living.

The academic achievements above will insure the student’s ability to benefit at our school. Applicants must have financial resources arranged and available for the costs of the program.

Interested students are told during the first interview that they are required to have an official GED certificate or its equivalent, a high school transcript, or transcripts from institutions of higher education. The letter notifying acceptance into the professional massage training program, reminds the student to bring their transcripts to the Orientation meeting.

Admission Procedures

1. Call the school to schedule a private interview. Be sure to bring your completed application form, a recent photograph and a $25.00 application fee with you to the interview.

2. Upon completion of the interview, submit a letter expressing intention to attend MTIC.

3. Upon receipt of your letter of intent, you will be placed under consideration for enrollment. The school will notify the applicant of acceptance into the program and the applicant will be mailed a notice informing them of their acceptance that contains instructions for preparation for the course.

Instructions for Successful Applicants
Approved applicants will be mailed a notice informing them of their acceptance. Successful applicants will receive their notification letter with further instructions for required textbooks and class preparation. Submission of a $750.00 tuition deposit must occur to secure a place in the program. The textbooks and the necessary supplies should be acquired now. Attending an Orientation prior to class is required. It is normally held on Sunday afternoon prior to the beginning of class. Applicants will be notified of their orientation meeting. The enrollment agreement will be completed at Orientation.
Interviews
Enrollment interviews are held one to three months prior to the program start date (for example, interviews for April classes are held January through March). Serious applicants should plan to interview as early as possible to increase their chances of being included.
Credit Transfer
MTIC will review transcripts of applicants who request a transfer of credits and will make reasonable efforts to apply credit where such transfer of credit is considered equivalent to MTIC program hours. MTIC can make no guarantees regarding acceptance of transfer credits from other schools into MTIC programs nor can MTIC guarantee that other schools, colleges or institutions will accept MTIC credits.

Most schools reserve the right to determine what credit is acceptable for transfer. For a reasonable fee, MTIC will provide a copy of the student’s transcript upon request. MTIC will cooperate with the student and the requesting institution if explanation of MTIC credit is requested.

Students receiving transfer credit for previous course work will receive an approval for transfer of credit. The student must submit an official transcript and an institutional catalog in effect at the time.
