The application is a soft credit pull that will not affect your credit score. Once you are formally enrolled, Altamont Healthcare will verify your loan. Payments will either start immediately or 3 months after graduation,. If you are not approved for a loan, applying with a co-borrower with higher credit will boost your chances of approval.
Total loan terms range from 36 months (SPDT, SPDT+ERT,EKG) to 84 months (TS-C). Interest rates range from 7.99%-20.45%. Students that finance program costs with a loan from Climb Credit are not eligible for discounts offered by Options 1 or 2. We do not accept federal aid such as FAFSA.
Refund Policy
The registration fee of $250 required by all our programs is non-refundable once paid. Other parts of the enrollment fees such as Materials and Books are refundable until they have been ordered; these are non-refundable once they have been ordered. The Student Tuition Recovery Fund is a mandatory fee collected as per state regulations and is non-refundable.
Tuition is refundable and the refund amount will be adjusted based on the amount of class time that has occurred prior to the notice of cancellation. Students have a right to cancel, meaning they may cancel their enrollment with no penalty to their tuition amount either within 7 days of enrollment or until the class start date, whichever is later. The right to cancel does not apply to enrollment fees.
Late Payments
We understand that late payments happen due to a variety of circumstances & strive to accommodate our students going through hardship. If you are struggling with your payment schedule, please reach out to our office staff and we will do our best to make a payment schedule that works for you. You may be surprised at the number of options available to you.
Payments made after 7 days of the due date will result in a $20 late fee charged to the account. A late fee of $80 will be charged once the account is 30 days past-due; $100 charges will be added at 60 and 90 days. Late payments will disqualify students from any available discounts from payment plans or promotions.
It’s in your best interest to maintain open communication regarding late payments. Non-communication/ghosting will result in restricted class access, warning letters, termination from the program, withholding of the graduate certificate, financial holds, and being sent to a third-party collections agency.
