Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this esl class:

Intensive English classes allow you to quickly achieve English fluency and learn grammar and vocabulary that will be useful in every day English. You can study for as long as you need to, and this level of focus will improve your opportunities in future academic and professional endeavours. 

How can I learn English quickly?

Refund Policy

Cancellation fees:

  • ‘Cancellation’ refers to the period up to the start date of the first course you are attending. Cancellations should (but are not required to) be made in writing and in these cases, providing the student never attends, 100% of the tuition and accommodation fees will be refunded, less any actual housing costs incurred; in all cases, the courier fee, enrollment fee and any other service charges (e.g. airport transfer fee, medical insurance, campus fee, program supplement fee, etc.) are non-refundable up to a maximum charge of USD500. Cancellations made prior to the course start date but after arrival in the US on a Kaplan-issued Form I-20, will result in forfeiture of tuition, and any associated accommodation fees, equal to the first 4 weeks for courses between 1-11 weeks and the first 6 weeks for courses 12 weeks or longer (does not apply for California).
California Only:

  • The institution shall refund 100 percent of the amount paid for institutional charges, less a reasonable deposit or application fee not to exceed two hundred fifty dollars (USD250) and any actual, incurred costs if notice of cancellation is made through attendance at the first class session, or the seventh class day after enrollment, whichever is later.
Change fees:

  • A minimum of 4 weeks’ notice is required for any change. If you request a change of school location, course dates, accommodation or program type after your course has started, you will be charged a change fee of USD100, which is payable at the time the request is made (excluding termination or cancellation which is dealt with under the applicable part of the relevant Cancellation and Termination clauses below). Kaplan is not obliged to fulfill any change request.
  • Academic Year or Academic Semester students cannot transfer to a different Kaplan school during term time. If changing to a location (or changing program) where fees are lower, the difference in fees will not be refunded. If changing to a more expensive location or program, the difference in fees will be charged. All changes are subject to Kaplan’s discretion and require approval of the School Director. You will not be charged a change fee if you extend your course. It is the responsibility of the student to pay for any course or accommodation extensions. Any change of tuition resulting in a reduction in lessons will be treated as a termination of the existing booking and rebooking, and will thus be subject to the standard terms & conditions governing terminations (see ‘Termination Policy’), except in the USA and Canada.

In any event where a customer wants to cancel their enrollment and is eligible for a full refund, a 5% processing fee will be deducted from the refund amount.

In the event that an instructor or the school needs to cancel at the last minute, students will receive a refund less a 5% non-refundable registration fee.
