Frequently Asked Questions?

ADI does an enrollment at the start of each class if there is room in the program for new students.If a student starts after Aug 15th it will take a complete year to graduate instead of 9 months because we are closed between June 2nd and Aug 15th.
All 9 classes must be completed with a grade over 70% to graduate from the Program.

Classes are held Monday through Thursday between 6pm and 9pm

The first step is to schedule an interview for enrollment to go over what is covered in the 9 months and what is expected of you to complete the program.If you are accepted into the program the next step is to fill out an enrollment agreement and complete the loan through the Register tab on our website just click on apply for financing and it will bring up the link.The loan step can be skipped if the student is paying in full. Everyone is approved for financing if there is an issue getting the loan there will be a down payment required.There is an option if approved for no payments until after you graduate.

After being accepted into ADI we will refer you to a career specialist at the WIOA and they will schedule a meeting with the student to explain their  process of getting you approved for assistance.

ADI is contacted weekly looking for candidates for local employment. We post these jobs on our digital career board.Our career board is for all current and graduated students. After 3 months in the program we will give you the login access to apply for these jobs.Our recommendations are based on attendance and your ability to be on time for class.Any company working with us agrees to let you out on time to get to class by 6pm while you’re still in school.

The certification is for 432 hours of  training in the Automotive Technology program through ADI
ADI is licensed by The South Carolina Commission on Higher Education.
We also recommend you take the 9 ASE tests for the 9 classes offered by ADI.These ASE Tests are not required to graduate but students will be prepared for them and they will only make it easier to find employment.
ASE is the National Institute of Automotive Service Excellence. It is the industry standard in automotive testing.ADI students are prepared for these tests and the certifications are tangible proof of their technical knowledge to future employers.We will set up their ASE accounts online for the students and show them how to schedule their tests at the testing center if they are interested.These tests are not required for graduation but are highly recommended. 

As a courtesy ADI discounts tuition if our loan company is not used because they charge a percentage of the loan to the school. Our refund policy for the tuition does not change if tuition is paid in full.

Yes we have only a small number of seats currently available.We limit our class sizes to about 10 students per teacher.This makes it possible to make sure nobody falls behind in class and can be involved on shop nights.
