Student Appeal
In addition to CRID's accreditations and licensing, admissions coordinators are available to help incoming students decide the ideal plan for completing the court reporting program. Coordinators help students explore the curricula and the school schedules while completing the admissions process as well. Online and onsite admissions processes are available. Students are required only to have a high school diploma or a GED to apply to the court reporting program.
Financial
CRID has a staff of Financial Aid Advisors to help students find ways to pay for school. The Advisors help explore the different types of aid available to them, including specialty programs, grants, scholarships and possible employer reimbursement programs. Some students may even be eligible for private education funding programs or federal student aid programs. The Institute also provides entrance counseling that each student must complete before receiving financial aid and exit counseling that students must complete before graduation if they have received aid during their education.
