- Application Fee: The application fee is non-refundable and non-transferable under any circumstances.
- LOA Deposit: The Letter of Acceptance (LOA) deposit is refundable only if your study permit application is refused. If you fail to submit your visa application and request a refund of your LOA deposit, the college reserves the right to deny the refund.
- Accuracy of LOA Information: You must ensure that all information on the LOA is accurate, as it will be reflected on your Provincial Attestation Letter (PAL). Once issued, the details on the PAL cannot be changed.
- Email Communications: You are responsible for checking your email regularly for deadline notifications. Failure to do so may result in automatic removal from the intake, and your LOA deposit will not be refunded.
- Visa Submission Recommendation: We strongly recommend submitting your visa application to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) at least three (3) months before the program start date. This aligns with college guidelines and supports refund requests in the event of visa refusal.
- GCKey Account Monitoring: You should monitor your GCKey account regularly and promptly inform the college of any updates to ensure timely actions (e.g., class registration, refund processing).
- Post-Registration Matters: Once you are registered at the institution, any withdrawal, tuition refund, or related issue becomes a direct matter between you and the institution; the agent cannot intervene.
- Tuition Refund Period: You acknowledge that most colleges enforce a maximum 90-day period for processing tuition fee refunds.
- Post-Graduation Work Permit: Subject to immigration regulations, you may be eligible for a Post-Graduation Work Permit of up to three years upon successful completion of your study program. For details, please visit: Eligibility details.
