Programs Offered

Mortgage Loan Originator Prelicensing
20 Hour OR SAFE Comprehensive Applying Mortgage Knowledge to Exam Preparation

This course is a test-focused mortgage pre-licensing course, organized to review topics specifically outlined in the National Mortgage Loan Originator Test Content Outline. This course meets the federal mortgage training requirements found in the SAFE Act and helps to prepare students for the National Mortgage Loan Originator Test. This MLO pre-licensing online course also satisfies the required 4 hours of Oregon law. This dynamic prelicense course sets you up for success as an insurance professional and is designed to ensure you pass the state exam.

OnCourse Learning's Mortgage Prelicensing course is an entry-level, online instructor-led course designed and approved to meet the 20 hour Pre-licensing education requirement to obtain a Mortgage Loan Originators license in Oregon through the NMLS. Upon successful completion of this program the student will receive a completion certificate. The student’s completion record is also reported electronically to the Nationwide Mortgage Licensing System (NMLS) for licensing eligibility. The Prelicensing examination is a separate requirement from education and may actually be taken prior to the education although this is not usually advisable.

Our Mortgage Prelicense course is completed online and includes instructor interaction; therefore it is not considered a self-paced course. Complete instructions are provided within the course Syllabus online which detail the pace at which you must proceed through the content. Courses begin every week (and run for 14 days) but due to regulatory requirements we are not able to publish a full year’s calendar in advance. You are encouraged to call us or visit our website for upcoming course dates. The maximum time to complete the Mortgage Program is 12 months from the date of purchase. The NMLS requires that Online Instructor-Led courses be completed within session start and end dates (14 days total).

Course Calendar

Our staff is available to answer telephone calls and emails Monday through

Friday from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM EST. The school will observe the following holidays: New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day.

Student Conduct and Dismissal

Students are expected to conduct themselves in a professional manner while taking part in online instructor-led courses. Students should actively participate in the course by using all available methods of communication with the instructor and fellow students. Although students participate in class remotely, the online instructor-led format should be treated like a live class in terms of established start and end dates/times and required activities. Students are expected to respect the rights of the instructor and fellow students. Students should refrain from using offensive or abusive language during real-time, online discussions and may not post offensive or abusive comments or material to class Message Boards. Students must also refrain from introducing any non-course related content or information to discussions. Participants will be provided with instructor contact information for questions or comments and are encouraged to discuss noncourse topics with other participants “off-line.”

Even though we are an online only school, the school retains the authority, at its sole discretion, to impose immediate termination of any student for miss-conduct when the school deems appropriate.

Student Grievance Policy

OnCourse Learning encourages open and direct communication. If a student has a complaint or disagreement regarding any course or instructor, she/he should go directly to the instructor outside of class time to discuss the situation. If this does not result in resolution, the student should address the issue in writing to the School Compliance Coordinator. If the complaint is in regards to this individual, the student may submit the complaint to the School Director. An administrator will set up a three-way meeting with the student and instructor within 96 hours of the written complaint with the intent to facilitate dialogue and resolution. The Director will make a decision in writing to the student within 72 hours. If a student disagrees with grades, reported absences, or outstanding assignments, they may submit copies of all tests, assignments, and/or documentation to be reconsidered. Administration will respond to any such submissions within one business week. Students aggrieved by an action of the school should attempt to resolve these problems with appropriate school officials. Should this procedure fail, students may contact The Higher Education Coordinating Commission 255 Capitol St. NE, Salem, OR 97301. After consultation with appropriate staff and if the complaint alleges a violation of Oregon Revised Statutes 345.010 to 345.470 or standards of the Oregon Administrative Rules 715-045-0001 through 715-045-0210, the commission’s executive director will begin the complaint investigation process as defined in OAR 715-045-0023, Appeals and Complaints.

Placement Assist

The school does not provide assistance or counseling for graduates in arranging interviews with potential employers. Current law prohibits any school from guaranteeing job placement as an inducement to enroll students.

The school does not guarantee the transferability of its credits to any other educational institution. It is solely up to the receiving school to determine whether credits will be accepted.If a student has a transcript from another school showing completion of required courses and evidence of course approval by the appropriate regulatory authority, at the discretion of the school, credit may be given toward a program certificate. Acceptance of credit from another school shall not impact the refund policy.
