Assignments are not graded in standard alphanumeric grades, but generally in the form of satisfactory or unsatisfactory. Some unsatisfactory assignments may need to be repeated.
The instructor may withhold future lessons when previous lessons are not yet completed. Questions are answered both privately and in Google Classroom, and feedback will be given.
Online students will be required to participate in the Mentorship Program and will be mentored by an advanced student or graduate in the Mystery School, allowing others in the community greater experience in teaching, mentoring, and leadership.
Students in each online class will be provided with updated class policies and procedures.
For general policies of the Temple of Witchcraft, please see the Temple Handbook.

Mystery School Payment Frequently Asked Questions
When do I pay for the course?
Payment in full is due two weeks before the start of the course. We recommend that you pay the balance of your course fee upon receipt of your acceptance letter. Those students with an unpaid balance when the course begins will not receive course materials.
Will you send a bill?
No. The Temple will not send out a bill or invoice for payment. It is the responsibility of the student to make the necessary payments on time. However, if payment is not received in a timely manner, a reminder will be sent. Payments not received before the end of the 3rd month of the course will be subject to an additional $25 late fee.
