Period after Courses start date Amount of Refund

Up to 1 week 50 percent (if paid in full)

No refunds are made for absence from classes or withdrawal from a course after the first week following the start of the course.

Registration fees are non-refundable. Tuition fees are only deemed refundable up to one week after school commences ONLY if paid in full.
