CANCELLATION AND REFUND POLICY

Lexis English – Brisbane; Byron Bay; Noosa/Sunshine Coast; Sydney; Perth, are hereinafter referred to as the College.

1. Your course is defined in study periods of 25 weeks or less. Enrolments greater than this are divided into study periods of 25 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.
2. Your course is defined as the full enrolment duration inclusive of any holiday breaks within this period. For student visa holders one CoE is issued per program of study for the duration of the enrolment. Eg: 12 weeks General English followed by 2 weeks holiday followed by 12 weeks General English is considered one course and one CoE is issued for the 26 week duration.
3. In the absence of any agreement to the contrary, your place in a course will not be confirmed until fees are received for the initial study period and our bank has confirmed your payment.
