Can I get a refund / transfer?

If you are a UK or EU student or any student on a single term course, you are entitled to a full refund if you withdraw from a course 2 weeks or more before the course starts. If you withdraw less than 2 weeks before the start we will deduct an admin. charge. The College will refund your money in full if your course is closed or the time or venue is changed and you have to withdraw as a result of this. The College does not normally refund fees if you withdraw after the course has started due to a change in your personal circumstances. However, you may be entitled to a transfer to another course or a voucher valid for a year. Transfers between courses are normally limited to once per enrolment and are not accepted after the fourth week of the course.

If you are a non-UK/non-EU student studying a multi-term course then different rules apply. Full refunds will only be given if your course is closed or the time or venue is changed and you have to withdraw as a result of this. If you withdraw for any other reason, before or after the course starts you will be refunded 30% of the fee paid for each complete term which you will miss.

If at the time of enrolment you do not have the relevant documentation to receive a concessionary fee and pay a standard fee to secure your place then a full refund for the difference will be made on presentation of the documentation. If you are awaiting confirmation of a benefit as the course starts or your status changes during the course you will only be refunded the difference for outstanding terms of the course. So if the course is only one term then no refund will be made.

Please ensure that you retain your payment receipt as no refund or transfer can be made without this. To find out more details or to obtain a refund form please see the Learner Services Team in receptions.
