Lincoln Tech East Windsor Program Costs

The estimated education expenses for the programs offered at the East Windsor campus varies by the program selected. These estimates include tools, uniforms and fees associated with the program selected.

Methods of Payment: Total Academic Term Costs are due in advance of each Academic Term. However, if this presents a hardship, please visit the Financial Aid office to determine your eligibility for alternative methods of payment. These may include short term payment plans; long-term payment plans; long-term extended financing plans; Title IV financial aid programs; cash; check; credit card; or other agreeable method. If installment payments are made, a separate contract must be completed and made part of this agreement. Students who receive financing from Tuition Funding Group must review and sign the Supplement Enrollment Agreement.

Lincoln Tech Class Schedules – How Do They Work?

Students can enroll at any time during the year. Class starting dates are scheduled at frequent intervals to enable students to start moving toward their career goals as soon as possible. Class size is limited so that each student can receive the personal attention so vital to successful mastery of the skills and understanding of the subject at hand. A typical classroom at our campus can accommodate up to 30 students and a typical laboratory at our campus can accommodate up to 30 students. The school reserves the right to alter hours of attendance and/or starting dates when deemed necessary.

Such changes will not alter the program costs or refund policy stated in the enrollment agreement. If conditions beyond the control of the school require postponement of a starting date or temporary suspension of classes, appropriate adjustments will be made to provide students all the instruction to which they are entitled under the terms of the enrollment agreement. Students who have enrolled but have not started attending school will, upon request, be issued a refund of monies paid if postponement of classes extends beyond the next class starting date.

Lincoln Tech School Calendar

Program start dates run on a rolling schedule set by the campus administration. Available seats in a new class are reserved on a first-come, first-serve basis. New class starts begin on an approximate monthly basis for most programs. Each program at the East Windsor campus is offered in day, afternoon and/or evening classes.

Lincoln Tech Class Hours

Programs are available in day, afternoon and/or evening shifts. Availability of shifts depend on which program is selected. The hours for each shift is as follows:

  • Day Class Hours - 7:15 AM to 12:15 PM (11:15 AM for Collision Repair)
  • Afternoon Class Hours – 12:45 PM to 5:45 PM (4:45 PM for CNC Machining & Collision Repair)
  • Evening Class Hours – 6:00 PM to 11:00 PM (10:00 PM for Collision Repair)

What Is the Lincoln Tech Attendance Policy?

The technical nature of the training and graduate employability goals of the programs offered requires that students attend classes on a regular basis. Our expectation is that students will attend all sessions for courses in which they are registered. Class attendance is monitored daily commencing with the student’s first official day of attendance and a student will be considered withdrawn from a course or courses when any of the following criteria are met:

  • The sixth consecutive day of absence from classes;
  • The fourteenth consecutive calendar day of absence (two weeks)
  • Cumulative absences prevent the student’s ability to master the course content during the remainder of the scheduled course, term, or semester as determined by the course syllabus.
  • Approved employment interviews (established per school policy) are not counted as absences for attendance purposes.
  • The following documented absences may be considered on appeal. If approved the student will be allowed to make up any work missed. However, the make-up time cannot be applied to their course attendance percentage:
    • Court Appearance–Applicable only when a student is mandated to appear in court for an action in which he/she is a third party or witness. Documentation will be required.
    • Military Duty–All military personnel requesting a documented absence must submit a copy of their orders to the campus Education Department prior to the missed time.
    • Illness–In the event a student suffers personal illness, either a written doctor’s note excusing participation in school or documentation of the stay in the hospital will be required.
    • Bereavement–In the event of the death of an immediate or extended family member and not to exceed 4 days or 25% of the scheduled course. Documentation (e.g. newspaper notice, funeral notice, obituary, or church handout) is required.
    • Jury Duty–Documentation required (stamped jury duty form from court).

Documentation of the above approved absences should be presented to the Education Department upon returning to school or in advance when applicable. Cases of extenuating circumstances may be considered by the Director of Education or designee and in the form of signed documentation or verifiable email from the student and if the student demonstrated comprehension of the course content missed. Students receiving funds from any state or federal agency may be subject to the additional attendance requirements of that specific agency. Note: Calendar day calculations include all days visible on a calendar without exception.

What is the Lincoln Tech Dress Code?

Lincoln tech requires the student to wear industry-standard uniforms for their respective program. The cost of uniforms is included in the student’s tuition. Uniforms vary by program.

How Do I Obtain Transcripts?

Following a review by the School, grade reports (unofficial transcripts and/or degree audits) are issued to the student upon completion of each course or term on the student portal. Individual grade records are permanently maintained for each Student and are open for inspection in accordance with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974. The student will receive an official transcript upon graduation. Requests for official transcripts while in school or additional copies of official transcripts after graduation or replacement diplomas/degrees can be requested through our Request A Transcript page. Lincoln has authorized Parchment Services to provide 24/7 online transcript ordering. Alumni, current and former students can order official transcripts using any major credit card.

Transfer Credits

Transfer Credits - Those students who transfer credits from an accredited postsecondary institution will receive a grade of “TR” as noted in the grading policy. For students who change programs, only those courses that count towards a student’s new program of study will be used to determine satisfactory academic progress. (Page 43)

Test Out

Test Out - Test Out exams provide students the opportunity to be exempt from certain required courses by demonstrating proficiency through assessment in the subject area to verify knowledge and skill.

Applicants requesting to take a test out exam must do so prior to starting school. Not all courses are eligible for test out exam credit, and students cannot have attended past the add/drop period in the course for which they want to test out. To receive credit for a course, the applicant must earn a B on the test out exam on the first attempt. A successful Test Out result is recorded as “TO” on the student transcript and is not considered in computing the Grade Point Average. A nominal administrative fee may apply for Testing Out. Applicants interested in Test Out should see the Education Department Manager.

When a student transfers from one Lincoln program to another Lincoln program, an evaluation is performed of all courses passed and skills / knowledge obtained which may be applicable to the new enrollment. Where course equivalencies are established, the earned grade in the original enrollment is applied to the new enrollment. A grade of “TO” for test out is applied to a course in the Lincoln enrollment when it is evident that the new required skills and knowledge sets had been obtained across multiple passed courses in the original enrollment. (Page 43)

Student Fees

Students who cancel enrollment or withdraw after receiving books and supplies may return these items if they are in good condition within five (5) days following a cancellation notice or twenty (20) days following date of withdrawal. Any refund due for parking fees, student fees or technology fees will be prorated based on use.
