Admissions Policy

Because of strong demand for space in National Capital Chapter (NCC) drivers’ schools, sometimes we are unable to accommodate all of the students who apply.  For schools where applications exceed our school capacity, we will admit students as outlined below.

Priority Assignment

Students will be admitted in order of application postmark date from among the following groups until school capacity has been reached.  Within each group, applicants for both days of a school will be admitted first, and then, if spaces remain, single-day applicants will be admitted.  Ties within groups will be broken by random drawings.  Priority order is:

  1. NCC member;
  2. Member of other BMW CCA chapters;
  3. Non-member;
  4. Those submitting applications postmarked outside of the registration period (either early or late.)

To expand the ranks of qualified instructors as quickly as possible, and thus increase the number of students that can be admitted to future schools, applicants who qualify for the NCC instructor training program (Instructor Academy; IA) or who lack a single IA qualification will be given highest admission priority.  Qualification for IA is based on performance in earlier schools.  Detailed information on IA can be obtained from the chapter’s website at http://www.nccbmwcca.org.

Unsuccessful applicants will be waitlisted.  If spaces become available, applicants will be admitted from the waitlist in order as described above.  Applicants who are waitlisted but not eventually admitted receive full refunds of their fees.  Waitlisted applications will not be “rolled over” to later schools.

Notes

“NCC member” priority will be given to applicants whose primary or secondary chapter affiliations include the NCC and to applicants with pending NCC membership applications.  The number of novice students admitted will be limited to one-third of the total school enrollment.  Every effort will be made to inform applicants of their admission status three weeks before the school.

  • Applications must now be submitted using the online registration form on MotorsportReg.com.  At a minimum, completely fill out your Name, Address, Email, Phone, Club/Chapter membership, Garage and Driving Experience information in your MotorsportReg.com account page.  Incomplete account information will slow down the registration process.  The National Capital Chapter will not use any medical information entered into MotorsportReg.com for our drivers' schools.  On-line (credit card) payment through MotorsportReg.com or a check postmarked within the registration period is required to complete your registration and prioritize your application.  Each applicant must submit a separate application using a different username and email address.  Admission priority will be determined by either your on-line payment date or postmark date of your mailed check.  If you pay by check, mail your registration fee made payable to the NCC BMW CCA to:

  • Drivers must be 18 years of age or older and have full, valid driver’s licenses.  Familiarity with the car is essential and car sharing is strongly discouraged.  For two-day drivers’ schools, first-time students may register for the first day, or for both days, but not for the second day only.

  • Cars must be insured, street-legal, quiet and must have passenger seats.  Functional, securely attached lap and shoulder belts are required for both front seats.  The front seats must have equal restraint systems available (e.g., if the driver has a five-point harness, the passenger must have a five-point harness as well.)  Performance-enhancing modifications and R-compound (racing) tires inhibit learning and are strongly discouraged.  If roll bars or cages are installed, they must be fully padded above the level of the front door window sills.

  • Convertibles, SAVs, SUVs, retractable hardtops, T-tops, trucks, vans, motorcycles and rental cars are not allowed.

  • Cars must be inspected by a qualified service facility before the event.  A properly completed tech inspection form (supplied) must be presented at the track.  It is your responsibility to ensure that your car is safe and roadworthy.

  • Helmets must be certified to Snell M- or SA-standards, 2000 or later.  Full-face helmets with SA-2005 certifications are strongly recommended.  The Snell Memorial Foundation’s certification will be found on a sticker inside the helmet.  The chapter does not supply helmets.

  • Prior approval is required for students intending to share cars and for changes in car type after registration.

Refund policy

Student and instructor schedules are finalized and sent to the printer fifteen days prior to the school (that is the third Friday preceding the school weekend or the “Freeze Date”.)  We are not able to add students from the wait list after the Freeze Date.  The school costs are all fixed costs and tuition is priced as low as possible based upon full attendance.   

If you notify the Registrar of your cancellation prior to the Freeze Date, you will receive a refund of all amounts paid.  

If you notify the Registrar on or after the Freeze Date, and up until 9:00 p.m. the Friday immediately preceding the school weekend, you will receive a refund of one-half of your school tuition (regardless of the reason for the cancellation.)  Notification of the Registrar may be made by email to nccdsregistrar@me.com or home phone at 301.990.1315 or cell phone at 703.338.8128.    

If you fail to attend the school without notifying the Registrar prior to 9:00 p.m. the Friday before the school, you will forfeit your entire school tuition for that weekend.

The National Capital Chapter reserves the right to decline entry to any individual and to any vehicle deemed unsafe or unsuitable for track use.
