Your course is defined in study periods of 24 weeks or less. Enrolments greater than this are divided into study periods of 24 weeks or less dependent on the total course duration. Eg: A General English student who enrols for 30 weeks, would have 2 study periods, the first 15 weeks duration and the second 15 weeks duration.
If you give us less than 48 hours’ notice of any changes to your flight details, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to make the necessary changes to your airport pick-up and / or homestay arrangements and you may incur additional costs.
We do not guarantee that homestay accommodation can be arranged at short notice. We reserve the right to temporarily place you in hotel accommodation at your own cost on your arrival in Australia, until such time as we are able to secure a homestay placement.
