Refund and withdrawal terms
- Registration fee refund: the registration fee for new students is refundable in full if written notice of cancellation is provided at least two weeks prior to the start of the academic year. Re-registration fees for returning students are not refundable if the student does not return.
- Withdrawal during term (beginning of academic year): fee deductions are applied depending on attendance length: if the student attends up to part of week 1 and then withdraws without written notice, the registration fee is not refunded; attendance of 1–3 weeks leads to a deduction equal to one month's fees; 3–6 weeks leads to deduction equal to two months' fees; attendance of more than six weeks results in deduction of one semester's fees. Book fees are refundable only if the student did not attend and the refund request is before the start of the academic year. Transportation fees follow the same refund rules as tuition. One month's fee is calculated as annual tuition divided by ten.

An employer undertaking form is available and must be completed if a third party (for example an employer) will pay fees. These are standard administrative requirements for invoicing and collection.
