PRIVACY

Personal information will only be viewed by our team’s practitioner(s) and the clinic director; it will be kept strictly confidential unless the student gives written permission otherwise.


PRACTITIONER AND STUDENT RIGHTS

Reiki is not a substitute for medical or psychological diagnosis or treatment. Reiki practitioners/teachers do not diagnose conditions, prescribe or perform medical treatment, or interfere with the treatment of a licensed medical professional. It is your responsibility to see a licensed physician, or licensed health care professional for any physical or psychological ailment you have.

Reiki practice is a form of non-invasive and non-manipulative touch. If you are uncomfortable in any way during a Reiki session or class, you have the right to question your practitioner/teacher and/or request that the session be terminated. If you experience any pain or discomfort during a session, immediately inform your practitioner or teacher so that the pressure and/or touch may be adjusted to your level of comfort.

ADMISSION / REGISTRATION

Perspective students should be at least 18 years of age for all classes except our teen and kids classes. Students must first complete a registration form and submit a class deposit. Incomplete registration forms or registrations sent without deposits will be returned. Accepted registration forms will be confirmed and will hold your space. If a note from your therapist is necessary, it must be provided before the start of classes.

Upon acceptance into the program, students will receive a contract with payment dates, policies and procedures . Students who fail to make payments on time face suspension or dismissal from the program.

TRSAC will determine final acceptance or rejection.

Any false or incomplete information contained on your class registration form will be grounds for dismissal from the program. Keep The Reiki School + Clinic updated as to any changes in your medical profile and contact information. There shall be no liability on The Reiki School and Clinic’s part should you fail to do so.

NON-DISCRIMINATION POLICY

TRSAC admits students of any color, race, ethnic origin, gender, religious background, or sexual orientation, to all the rights, privileges, programs and activities made available to the students at the school. TRSAC does not discriminate because of color, race, ethnic origin gender, religious background, or sexual orientation in its admissions policies, educational policies, scholarship programs, or any other school administered programs. All students, staff and faculty must adhere to the TRSAC non-discrimination policy at all times. Violations of the policy will result in immediate dismissal from the program or employment.

ATTENDANCE AND LATENESS

• The first five classes for Reiki Levels 1 and 2 are mandatory. If you miss one of these classes, you are required to do a make-up. Make-up classes can be scheduled with your classroom teacher for a fee of $80.

• Three or more absences in any given course will result in non-completion of the course and no certificate will be awarded. Students are responsible for making up any material or assignments missed. Students can make-up a class by participating in the equivalent class of another course, if it’s available, at no additional cost. If an equivalent class is not available, students can arrange for a private make-up with a teacher. The cost of a private make-up is $80 per session.

• As a courtesy to the class, please call or email if you will be absent or late. Three lateness’s of 10 minutes or more will count as an official absence.


START DATE / CLASS POSTPONEMENT

The Reiki School + Clinic reserves the right to postpone the start date of a class until said class is filled. Students who are unable to attend due to a class postponement are entitled to a full refund of the balance. 

TUITION REFUND/REPAYMENT POLICY

Deposits Tuition Deposits are non-refundable. Withdrawal If a student withdrawals before the start of a program or course, a full refund minus the deposit fee will be awarded. If the student withdrawals from a course or program after the start of the program or course, a partial refund may be granted at the discretion of TRSAC. Dismissal If a student is dismissed from a course or program, no refund will be awarded.

The first five classes for Reiki 1 and Reiki 2 are mandatory, as well as the first class of Reiki 3. If you miss one of these classes, you are required to do a make-up. Two or more absences in any given course will result in non-completion of the course and no certificate will be awarded. Students are responsible for making up any material or assignments missed. Students can make-up a class by participating in the equivalent class of another course, if it is available, at no additional cost. If an equivalent class is not available, students can arrange for a private make-up with your teacher. The cost of a private make-up is $80 per session. As a courtesy to the class, please call or email if you will be absent or late. Three lateness’s of ten minutes or more count as an official absence.

CLASS SCHOLARSHIPS

We save 2 spaces in each Reiki Level 1, 2 and 3 course for partial scholarship recipients. The scholarships are first-come, first-serve; We trust if you’re asking for a scholarship, you really need one. We suggest that you register as soon as possible to ensure a scholarship space. We offer $100 towards the cost of a Reiki 1 or 2 training, and $200 towards the cost of Reiki Level 3.

SNOW CANCELLATION

The Reiki School + Clinic is closed (due to weather) when the School District of Philadelphia is closed. If you wake up and there’s snow, just check to see if they are closed or if they have an early dismissal. In either of those cases our night classes will also be closed too. In the evening the snow tends to freeze making for unsafe driving conditions and long commutes. We want you to stay safe!

STUDENT PAYMENT PLANS

We always offer payment plans for our classes. When you register you’ll pay an initial deposit, and the balance of your tuition will be spilt over the remaining months of class. Note: there is a $50 fee for payment plans.

EARNING REFERRAL CREDITS TOWARDS CLASSES

We offer a $50 credit towards the balance of your tuition, for each friend who signs up and comes to a Reiki class while you’re a student. Credits are not transferable for any other workshop, event, class or service.

WORK STUDY

We don’t typically offer work-study programs at the school, but if you think there’s something we might be very interested in bartering for, please contact us.
