Student Requirements and Refund Policy
Student/Parent/Legal Guardian,
I agree that my son/daughter will attend all classes and drive at all scheduled drive times.
Students must satisfactorily complete 30 hours of classroom instruction in 15 scheduled sessions, 10 hours of behind-the-wheel instruction, and 6 hours of in-car observation. If a student misses a session, they must complete a 500-word essay for each hour missed. A maximum of 4 hours may be missed for “Good Cause” with a signed absence form. This form is in Google Classroom Resources. Essays are due by the instructor’s assigned date.
- All students must pass an eye chart examination with 20/40 vision in both eyes on the first day.
- All students must submit a copy of their birth certificate on or before the first day.
- Disruptive behavior (swearing, lying, intoxication, etc.) will result in immediate dismissal with no refund.
To receive a certificate of completion, students must complete all driving and observation hours as outlined.

Per NH DMV, students must log 40 hours of supervised driving with someone 25+ years old with a valid license. Teens may not drive outside NH until they receive a valid NH license.
