Tuition and Refund Policy

The Registration Fee is non-refundable at all times. A student may be entitled to a refund of tuition fees in the event that:

1. The student provides written notice to the institution that he or she is withdrawing from the program; or
2. The institution provides written notice to the student advising that the student has been dismissed from the program.

The written notice of withdrawal or dismissal may be delivered in any manner provided that a receipt or other verification is available that indicates the date on which the notice is delivered.  The notice of withdrawal or dismissal is deemed to be effective from the date it is delivered. The refund to which a student is entitled is calculated on the total tuition fees due under the contract. Where total tuition fees have not yet been collected, the institution is not responsible for refunding more than has been collected to date and a student may be required to make up for monies due under the contract.

 If the institution has received fees in excess of the amount it is entitled to under the student contract, the excess amount must be refunded.

Refund policy for students:

1. If the institution receives tuition from the student, or a person on behalf of the student, the institution will refund the student, or the person who paid on behalf of the student, the tuition that was paid in relation to the program in which the student is enrolled if:
