General
What is your refund policy?
There are no refunds.
Refunds will only be awarded as required by law, as listed below:
- The school is closed by the Department of Public Safety and Corrections.
- The State of Louisiana determines that students were trained by an unlicensed instructor.
Refunds will be issued upon request. All refunds will be processed within 30 days after the effective date of termination or request, whichever occurs first.
Do you accommodate students with disabilities?
For students with hearing, speech or learning disabilities, please notify the school promptly so that we can coordinate alternative testing arrangements.
Will I need to attend driving school if I have a foreign driver's license?
All internationals will need to attend a driving school and take a 14-hour pre-licensing course. Before taking the course, you must visit the Louisiana OMV and obtain a Temporary Instructional Permit.
Applicants must take the general knowledge test and the road skills test through a driving school and present proof of completion to the Louisiana OMV, then you will only need to pass the vision test. Applicants may have an interpreter to translate for him/her during the examination process.
If you have a license from Germany, Switzerland, South Korea and Taiwan (due to a reciprocal agreement with the Department), in addition to the U.S. Territories of American Samoa, Guam, Mariana Islands, Marshall Islands, Palau, Micronesia, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands are exempt from the driver education training requirement, knowledge and road skills tests but are required to pass the vision test.
