Penalty
for Failure to Pay
Candidates
who fail to pay on their promissory note as per their agreed upon
schedule of payments will be exited from the Alternative Teacher
Licensure program within five days of failure to pay. Exit from the
program can result in a loss of employment and ineligibility to
complete the Alternative Teacher Licensure program at a future time.
Candidates are responsible for the payment of their promissory notes
regardless of their completion status of the program.
Scholarships,
Student Grant/Loans, and other Financial Aid
Because
TILA has developed a payment structure that is in some cases 50%-75%
below that of comparable programs, it does not provide scholarships
and cannot guarantee financial aid through UCDHSC or other
governmental agencies. TILA staff, however, will be happy to assist
candidates by referring them to outside sources for information that
may lead to financial assistance. You may also qualify for Workforce Investment Act (WIA) funds from your local workforce center. Go here for more information:http://www.coworkforce.com/EMP/WFCs.asp#wfcbycity.
