Cancellation policy

  • If a student withdraws between 8 and 4 weeks before the start/arrival day of the programme, CES will charge 25% of the tuition fee per student who is withdrawing + non-refundable costs made for visa applications.
  • If a student withdraws between 4 weeks and the start/arrival day of the programme, CES will charge 50% of the tuition fee per student who is withdrawing + non-refundable costs made for visa applications.

Exceptions to the abovementioned cancellation regulations will be reviewed by CES on a case-by-case basis.
