Eligibility and Entrance Requirements

Students must be 18 years of age or older with a high school diploma or equivalent. There are no entrance testing requirements, however, MIPH reserves the right to administer an ‘ability to benefit’ test at their discretion. MIPH does not discriminate against applicants or students based on race, color, creed, sex, physical or mental handicap unrelated to ability, religion, or national origin. The school does not provide English as a second language instruction. Class sizes will be limited and minimum enrollment numbers may apply.

MIPH does not accept applications from individuals who are incarcerated or who have been convicted of a violent felony and/or sexual crime. MIPH reserves the right to refund tuition, minus fees, to any student deemed unfit for training in hypnotism and related modalities such as NLP.

Students Right To Cancel and Refund Policy

The student has the right to cancel this enrollment agreement at any time. Notice of cancellation or withdrawal should be made in writing and must be delivered or mailed to MIPH. MIPH shall for all students, without penalty or obligation, refund all of tuition and fees paid if written notice of cancellation/withdrawal is given within 5 days of the students initial enrollment, provided classes have not yet begun. All students have the right to cancel and receive a full refund, less registration fees (not to exceed $150 or 50% of tuition whichever is less), 5 days after acceptance up to the close of business on the student’s first day of class of any course. Books, workbooks, and written materials are only refundable if unmarked. Audio taped, videotaped, and computer software programs are refundable only if unopened. If a student decides to cancel or withdrawal after the beginning of the first session of any course, the following refund policy shall apply.

All registration fees will be kept in full by MIPH if a student wishes to cancel or withdrawal after the beginning of any course. All withdrawals/cancellations should be made in writing and must be delivered or mailed to MIPH.

If a student has completed less than 5% of a course (from here on, referring to the individual course of instruction in the case of full certification training), MIPH will refund all but 10% of the cost of tuition and other instructional charges (but no more than $300) for that particular course. If a student completes over 5% but less than 60% of a course, refunds will be computed prorata by days in class less an additional 10% of the individual course tuition in accordance with Illinois state law. If a student completes over 60% of a course, no refund will be granted for that particular course.

If a student withdrawals from a full certification training, no refunds will be granted for courses completed, full refunds will be granted for courses not yet begun, and the above policy will apply for any course in progress. Individual exceptions or situations are decided at the discretion of MIPH.

Books, workbooks, and written materials are only refundable for courses not yet completed if unmarked. Audio taped, videotaped, and computer software programs for courses not yet completed are refundable only if unopened. Any student that wishes to withdrawal that is receiving financing through MIPH will be required to fulfill their financial obligation to MIPH according to the above calculations. If the student chooses and MIPH agrees, the student may roll over any refunds due into a future training - no more than one year later. Otherwise, any applicable refund will be processed within 30 days of the written request.

Requirements for Certification/Graduation

Mitchell Institute of Professional Hypnosis has the right and responsibility to deny Certification to any student for the following reasons:

1. If the student demonstrate a lack of clinical competence during the training
2. If the student does not pass the written exam
3. If the student demonstrates a lack of ability, character or ethics required to work as a professional in this field

Note: we take pride in the training of our students- and we often get feedback suggesting our students excel in actual hypnosis after successfully completing our coursework. Therefore, we provide sufficient training and practice to prepare students to be high quality practitioners. We only ask the student to exhibit professional conduct, to carry out high standards and to maintain ethical practices. These things are the responsibility of the student. Currently we have never had to deny any student from receiving their Certificate after completing our Coursework and the Certification Exam.

Placement

MIPH offers no formal placement program. A reputable vocational school cannot guarantee employment. Most hypnotists are in private practice or use it as an adjunct to their work in another profession.

Office and Records

All records are kept in the office located at MIPH 2700 W. Lawrence Ave. Suite J-4, Springfield, IL 62704 (1-800-662-3040). Records are made available upon request upon receipt of a written transcript request signed by the student and accompanied by a $10 processing fee.
