Refunds

If you leave your course early, tuition fees will not be refunded. You will also not get a refund for lessons you miss because you are absent or because of public holidays. Tuition fees can be moved to another course (see condition 12), but they cannot be moved to other services such as accommodation, airport transfers or exam fees. Insurance fees cannot be refunded.  Any unused accommodation fees can be refunded.

If your visa application is refused, the School will refund your tuition and accommodation fees in full, as long as we receive written proof at least 7 days before your arrival. In this case, the £65 enrolment fee will not be refunded.

If we receive written proof of visa refusal less than 7 days before arrival, we will refund your fees minus: the £65 enrolment fee
one week of tuition fees
one week of accommodation fees

All agreed refunds will be paid within four weeks after you send us:
your bank details
a signed authorisation confirming which account the refund should be paid to

If you paid by card, the refund can only be made to the same card.
Cancelling Your Course
If you cancel your course before it starts, the amount you can get back depends on different things. These include how many days before the start date you cancel, and whether a cooling-off period applies. Please see our Conditions page for more information.
