Message from the President
I
realize that for many people today there are heavy demands in the job market
requiring a College diploma or degree not just to secure a position but also
to obtain any real chance at significant advancement. I also realize that the
costs that need to be met can be staggering and that many individuals simply
cannot take the time away from family, job, and lifestyle to fit into the traditional
education systems. Our purpose here at the College of Natural Health is to provide
you with the opportunity to pursue goals in health, education, and career using
our distance-education programs.
The subjects of preventative medicine, alternative natural health care, and holistic healing are now among the most stimulating, rewarding, and demanded areas of educational interest for career as well as for personal growth and awareness. In today’s world there is a growing demand for skilled, trained, and capable natural health care practitioners in all of the fields of complimentary, preventative natural health care in all of it’s modalities.
Education is not determined by how many hours one spends in a classroom environment, but rather it is measured by what the student is able to learn, and what lifestyle improvements they can now enjoy, and, of course, in many cases, what career opportunities are now available to them. Today more and more educational institutions are recognizing that the need for higher education availability can only be met by innovative and bold new approaches. Our program is designed to meet the alternative needs and the growing demands of higher education in natural health services.
I welcome you and look forward to working with you as you embark on this fascinating educational journey with our College. Thousands of our graduates in over 60 nations believe we offer the finest nutrition and natural health courses in the world. You have shown great insight by choosing to learn more about our “Fit For Life® College of Natural Health” and it’s internationally celebrated courses in Natural and Alternative Health Care, Holistic Nutrition, Natural Hygiene, and Nutritional Science.
Ours is the only recognized school that offers you diploma and degree courses in the challenging and profound philosophy of “Natural Hygiene”! If you are a highly motivated, mature student that is passionate about helping people and seeking an above-average opportunity in an eve- expanding field of interest and necessity, then I invite you to review and enroll in our independent distance-education program and wish you all the best.
Sincerely,
William P. Wladyka, MBA, Ph.D

The College is very much aware of the confidentiality involved with students, both with their personal and academic records. The College will release the following information on request, as it is deemed to be Directorial Information and not classified information, to the public or for the public records.
• Name
• Address
• Telephone Number
• Date of Birth
• Place of Birth
• Enrollment Dates
• Graduation Dates
• Major Fields of Study
• Diploma and Certification Awarded
No information will be released unless the student requests it from the College,
furnishes any additional information in writing, and signs a consent form for
the release of the information prior to any and all additional information being
released regardless of what the need of any and all interested parties involved.
We recognize the students’ personal rights to access their own information
and records. However, in the distance-education and learning format we must
take every safeguard to protect all students. 
Non-Discrimination
The College is in total compliance with all requirements imposed or not imposed in the regulation or enforcement of everyone’s civil rights worldwide. We encourage all individuals and minority groups regardless of their race, color, creed, religion, or national origin, to enroll, participate, and excel at the educational and rewarding opportunities that our programs offer.
Academic Calendar
The College does not follow any particular academic or calendar year when dealing with our distance-educational and learning programs. Students may enroll in any month, at any time, may work at their own pace, and take the time they need to complete the courses. However, the College does have some time outlines within which the entire Diploma Courses must be completed and all exams should be finished. Failure to accomplish these time-lines may result in some additional costs to the student. If you wish to graduate on any particular date you must inform the College at least 60 days prior to any date selected. Students will receive their Certificates, diplomas, or Degrees that have been earned within six to eight weeks after their graduation date.
Payment Options and Financing Programs
The College has established and instituted a variety of tuition and course-fee programs to help students integrate their advanced educational requirements with their financial ability, obligations and responsibilities. The College accepts full tuition fee payments at the time of enrollment by cash, certified check, money order, Visa, or MasterCard. We also have several time-payment plans or limited finance options available to those students who qualify. Just ask the “Director of Student Services and Enrollments” about their availability and your qualifications to enroll in one of these options that could better meet your budgetary requirements.
Finance Options Plans
Our tuition fee financing programs are varied and do meet most students’
basic requirements to defer their costs over a period of time. You may choose
from our interest-free option plan or our conventional finance plans as listed
below. (Finance Programs only available in Canada and the USA)
First: 90 Day Interest Free Option: Our 90-day interest-free
optional payment plan simply means that once your total enrollment cost has
been calculated, you are asked to divide this total by four (4). Then you make
these four (4) equal monthly installments over the next 90-day period, with
your first installment due on your date of enrollment. With this plan there
is no interest charge but you must add a $50.00 administration fee to your total
before calculating your payments.
NOTE: Late or deferred payments will cause this interest-free optional plan
to become void, and interest, late charges, or penalties may be charged.
Second: Six (6)-Month Finance Plan: Our six (6)-month finance payment plan simply means that once your total enrollment cost, including the appropriate finance charges, has been calculated, less your required down payment, you are asked to divide the balance by six (6). You then make six (6) equal monthly installments over the next six (6)-month period with the first installment due 30 days from your date of enrollment. However, your down payment is due on your date of enrollment.
NOTE: Late or deferred payments may cost the student additional interest, late
charges or penalties. The College has an automatic minimum $25.00 charge on
any and all bad or NSF checks received for any payments, purchases, or costs
incurred by students or customers of the College.
Auto-Sign Credit Card Program: All of your monthly payments
or installments may also be made automatically by credit card by using our Auto-Sign
Program. By using this option you can avoid the trouble and extra expenses of
mailing in your payments, and your payments arriving late because of postal
problems. We simply charge your pre-authorized credit card payments to you on
a monthly basis when they are due. This Auto-Sign Program is available to be
used on all the above outlined time-payment options.
Refunds, Withdrawals, and Cancellation Policies
We realize that sometimes unfortunate or unexpected circumstances will require that a student withdraw or postpone his or her educational ambitions for reasons that may be beyond their control, or because of a change of mind. A student may cancel our “College Enrollment Agreement” within thirty days from the date of the application with the College. If, however, you do not cancel in writing addressed to the attention of the “Director of Student Services and Enrollments” at our College within the thirty days allotted, you may not be able to cancel later. Upon a student canceling within the allotted time-frame they will receive a full refund of all monies paid, except for materials returned in an unusable condition, and any shipping and handling charges when such conditions apply. Refundable tuition fees and costs are the fees and costs paid for the courses to date less, the initial registration fee of $395.00, and less any shipping and handling costs, and less the costs of any materials returned in an unsalable or unusable condition. In addition your refund, if any, can also be affected by the total amount of course work that you would have completed prior to your cancellation.
Tuition Fees, and Enrollment Costs
The tuition fees and enrollment costs cover the following items: a complete set of course books with individual lesson work-book tests and sectional exams, a Certificate of Proficiency once the student has completed 50% of the course lessons successfully, and a Diploma upon the successful completion of the entire course.
NOTE: The College does not charge any additional fees for grading, counseling, or returning corrected examinations.
