Refund information
- The admission deposit (50% of one term's full basic fees) is refundable in full on leaving provided there are no outstanding debts; if less than one term's notice of leaving is given the full deposit is non-returnable. Registration deposits used to reserve an offered place are refunded at the time of leaving (subject to the same conditions).
