Additional information:
- Background check requirements for licensing and background restrictions for working in the occupation:
All students applying for admission are required to undergo a background check. The campus uses an unaffiliated service provider to perform these background checks. The campus may deny admission to a prospective student based on the results of his/her background check, or may deny enrollment into certain programs based on those results. The campus may also dismiss an enrolled student as a result of a criminal conviction during the student’s course of study. Certain programs offered by the campus require students to successfully complete externship, practicum or clinical coursework at unaffiliated sites. Before accepting students, certain sites require background checks of their own. A student who cannot be placed at a site for any reason, including a background check result unsatisfactory to that site, may be unable to finish the program’s required coursework and, therefore, may be unable to graduate. Employers in many fields also require pre-employment background checks of their own. Background check results unsatisfactory to employers in a particular field may limit a student’s employment opportunities even if that student has graduated from a program in that field offered by the campus.
- Other requirements needed:
Persons desiring to apply to Arizona Automotive Institute should contact the School and speak with one of its Admissions Representatives. Prior to being accepted, an applicant must:
Complete an interview with an admission representative
Meet with a Financial Aid Officer
Meet with an Enrollment Compliance Officer or their designee, to complete an enrollment agreement and required forms; and
Submit all necessary information required to determine qualifications.
A student is officially enrolled upon completion of all admission requirements and the enrollment agreement is fully-executed (signed by the applicant and the School Official or their designee).
An applicant may register at any time, but may only begin classes on the specified start date or no later than the allowable start period defined by the schools governing agencies and as outlined on the enrollment agreement. Classes may have a limited enrollment.
