What is your grievance policy?
Any grievance must be filed in writing through the instructor of the class. Unresolved grievances must then be filed in writing to the school's owner, Dr. John Kordulak.

Students will not be subject to unfair actions as a result of filing a complaint. Dental Careers Foundation cannot guarantee that courses completed at the school will transfer to other institutions. A school's decision to accept coursework completed at Dental Careers Foundation is soley at the discretion of that school.
