Student Admissions Click here to print a PMI Application PMI is an equal opportunity training institution and does not discriminate in its admissions policy on the basis of age, sex, handicap, race, religion, creed, national origin, veteran status, or political affiliation. PMI is committed to servicing the educational and training needs of manufacturing in the region. Under the "open door" admission policy, acceptance to the PMI programs is open to anyone who meets the entrance assessment requirements as described below Acceptance into the PMI programs will be based upon the applicant's ability to meet the requirements, including the necessary academic skills, of the program of study. Transferability of course work is solely at the discretion of the receiving institution. Acceptance: Acceptance into PMI is based on the completion of: 1. A personal admissions interview. A PMI representative will meet with the prospective student. During the interview, training opportunities, occupational plans and financial obligations will be discussed. A tour of the PMI facility will be given. The purpose of the admissions interview is to introduce the prospective student to PMI's facility, programs and personnel. 2. The entrance assessment. To ensure applicants have the entry-level skills required for their desired program of study, every program applicant is required to complete an entrance assessment battery. Students will be tested in the areas of Verbal Reasoning, Numerical Reasoning, Mechanical Reasoning and Spacial Relations (or Perceptual Speed and Accuracy for Office Fundamentals students). 3. Proof of high school graduation or the equivalent (i.e. copy of high school diploma or official transcript). PMI will assist students in acquiring transcripts with the completion of PMI’s Request for Transcript form. Any fee charged by the high school for acquisition of transcript(s) will be the responsibility of the student. 4. Enrollment Agreement/Contractual Agreement A student enrollment agreement or contractual agreement must be completed and signed prior to entry into the program. The enrollment agreement or contractual agreement is not binding until accepted in writing by the School. 5. Payment Plan Students who will be making payments on their student account must submit a plan of payment to the PMI Finance department for approval prior to beginning classes.. 6. Competency Testing (*Not applicable to all students) Precision Manufacturing Institute offers the opportunity for experienced students (i.e. experienced toolmakers) to “test out” of certain classes/courses within their program. This competency testing is given to students who feel that their previous education, work history or life experience has provided them with the skills taught by a specific course at PMI. These competency tests are administered with a time limit and overseen by an administrative employee of PMI. If a student fails to achieve a score of 75% or higher they will be required to take the class/course within their program. |
