During the admissions process, students are required to provide personal information, including their name, date of birth, government-issued identification  (i.e. driver’s license or passport), high school/college attended, and prior degrees received as well as other contact information (i.e. current home address and a valid email address). The administrative staff reviews and verifies the authenticity of the documents and confirms that they are valid and accurate prior to an admissions decision.

Once admitted, each student is assigned a unique username and password to log into the HEI’s learning management system (currently Moodle). Students are responsible for providing their complete and true identity information in any identification verification process.

Throughout the student’s enrollment, Hollywood Education Institute uses a variety of methods to verify the student’s identity, including secure logins and passwords, proctored exams, and other technologies to verify the identity of students: 

• Secure logins and passwords: Hollywood Education Institute requires students to create unique usernames and passwords, which are used to authenticate the student’s identity when they log in to Moodle (LMS), to ensure that only the student has access to their coursework and assessments.
• Proctored exams: Hollywood Education Institute verifies the student’s identity by checking their ID and comparing it to the student on camera for online classes or in-person for hybrid courses to ensure that the person taking an exam is the same person who was admitted.

Any student engaged in incidents of student identity fraud may face reprimand, disciplinary warning, a lowered or failing grade(s), and/or probation, suspension from the course, academic program, or expulsion from the Institution.
