Refund Policy
Registration/ Visa fees and deposits are non-refundable and ineligible for account credit.

No refunds or credits for tuition or housing fees will be issued for withdrawals after April 29, 2024. Tuition and housing will not be pro-rated for student absences or partial attendance.
Injuries: Refunds and credits for withdrawals due to an injury suffered before the start date require a letter from the attending medical professional stating that the nature of the injury prevents participation in the program. In the rare case that a new injury occurs during the intensive program, and the student is deemed by a medical professional as unable to continue participation, a partial tuition credit will be granted at the discretion of the Program Director.
