Enrolled students may at any time request to transfer
to another school. We will encourage them to stay, especially
if it is between semesters. In a situation that a student
does leave the following policy will be in place if they
want to return. This same policy applies to students who
have been asked to leave the school for an academic or
behavioral reason.
In order to be eligible to return the student must have
attended Ánimo for at least one year. The student
must write a letter to the school requesting to return
and explaining why he/she wishes to return. The student
must provide official school transcripts with his/her
letter. The student’s records will be reviewed and he/she
must meet the following criteria to be considered a candidate
to return:
Returning students will be expected to maintain model
behavior and work with the school to be a spokesperson
about Ánimo’s advantages.
If a student meets the criteria and there is space available,
they will be allowed in at the start of a new semester.
If there is no space available, their name will be added
to the top of the appropriate wait-list.
If a student is denied, he/she may appeal his/her case
to the Ánimo Venice Review Board.
