“I chose to study with Kaplan in London because some friends studied here before

and liked their course, teachers and school, so I trusted their recommendation. The teachers really care about helping us to improve, and they prepare many different

activities so the classes are always interesting. Every day I feel more confi dent about the

improvements I am making in pronunciation and fl uency, especially when I talk to British

people outside of the school. In my position in my company, English is essential, so I know

that my English course will help with my career.”

alive with energy; its neon signs and live

television screens sit amid historic theatres

and cinemas to make this the hub of New

York’s nightlife.

Kaplan’s school provides excellent facilities,

including a computer room, student lounge,

and free wireless internet connection. After

class you are within walking distance of the

Radio City Music Hall—the choice is yours!

Manhattan’s wonderful

Central Park

• Minutes away from the buzz of

Times Square—the heart of the

New York theatre scene

• Our school offers fi rst-class

learning facilities and easy

2. Payment deadline: All course fees must be paid in full no later than 30 days before the course starts. If a booking is made less than 30 days before the course starts, the fees are immediately payable. If payment in full has not been received, you will not be allowed to start your course.

3. Visa information: It is the responsibility of the student to arrange all applicable travel permits or visas and to have a valid passport. The student may be asked to make payment in full prior to the issuing of any of the visa documentation referred to below:

UK: If your application is successful, we will provide you with a Visa Letter (Student/Child visitor visa applicants) or a Confi rmation of Acceptance of Studies number (Tier 4 applicants). Tier 4 applicants will also be asked to establish their level of English during the visa process. See the following website for further details: www.ukba.homeoffi ce.gov.uk/studyingintheuk/

Ireland/Canada: We will provide you with an invitation letter to assist you with your visa application.

USA: Once we have received your application, we will send a Proof of Funds form, which must be completed in order for Kaplan to issue you a Certifi cate of Eligibility (Form I-20), which is required in order to apply for a student visa at the US Consulate.

Australia: Visa application forms (Confi rmation of Enrolment) may not be issued by the school until full payment has been received and the enrolment agreement has been signed and returned. The enrolment agreement includes reference to the pre-departure and grievance procedures information and can be found on our website: www.kaplaninternational.com

New Zealand: In accordance with government regulations, visa support (Fees Receipt) is only issued by Kaplan when full payment has been received. Full details of visa and permit requirements, advice on rights to employment in New Zealand while studying, and reporting requirements are available through the New Zealand Immigration Service and can be viewed on their website at: http://www.immigration.govt.nz

4. Courier fees: If you enrol on a course in the USA less than 30 days before the course start date, a courier fee of USD50 will be charged to cover the expedition of visa documentation. If you enrol more than 30 days before the course start date, documentation will be sent by normal postal service, unless you request and pay for the courier service. In all other countries, a courier service is available on request at: GBP35, EUR55, CAD75, AUD75, NZD85.

5. Travel and medical insurance: Travel and medical insurance is compulsory at all Kaplan schools for the duration of your stay regardless of your course length or course/visa type. Kaplan can recommend a travel and medical insurance plan. Details of what this covers are available from your Kaplan representative. You are required to show proof of medical insurance at the school when you arrive. You will not be allowed to commence a course until you have obtained satisfactory medical insurance.

Australia: The Australian government requires all students on Student Visas to join the Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC) scheme, a health insurance plan for overseas students in Australia. Payment of AUD36/month for compulsory OSHC for the duration of the student’s visa must be made before a visa can be issued.

New Zealand: Most international students are not entitled to publicly funded health services while in New Zealand. If you receive medical treatment during your visit, you may be liable for the full costs of that treatment. Full details on entitlements to publicly funded health services are available through the Ministry of Health and can be viewed on their website at http://www.moh.govt.nz.

In addition, The Accident Compensation Corporation provides accident insurance for all New Zealand citizens, residents and temporary visitors to New Zealand, but you may still be liable for all other medical and related costs. Further information can be viewed on the ACC website at http://www.acc.co.nz. Please note that Kaplan’s recommended travel and medical insurance must be booked for a minimum of 4 weeks.

6. Health declaration: Students must report on their application any mental or physical illness, allergy, disability or condition that may interfere with their ability to successfully complete their programme, that may impact the health and well-being of any other student, host or staff member, that may require monitoring, treatment or emergency intervention of any kind during the student’s anticipated period of enrolment, or that may require special accommodations. Kaplan reserves the right to reject an applicant or terminate a student’s enrolment in the programme if the student’s continued participation represents a risk to their health and safety or to the health and safety of other students or staff, or if, notwithstanding reasonable accommodations, in the opinion of Kaplan, the student’s physical or mental condition makes the student unable or unlikely to successfully complete their programme. Refunds in such circumstances are at the discretion of Kaplan.

USA: Some schools located on university campuses require students to provide a Health Declaration and Immunization form.

7. Tuition fees: Tuition fees include lessons, orientation meeting, use of computer room and internet, placement and progress testing and a Kaplan certifi cate on completion of the course. Kaplan reserves the right to withhold the granting of a certifi cate attained by a student if tuition fees or any other fees remain outstanding.

8. Additional services: Any additional services (transfers, travel, laundry, telephone costs, excursions, medical costs, special diet, exam fees, change of accommodation and enrolment amendments) are not included in any fees unless specifi cally stated on a valid invoice.

9. Twin accommodation: At Kaplan’s discretion, students may be required to book single room accommodation instead of twin room accommodation.

10. Under 18 year olds: Kaplan delivers adult courses (except for programmes advertised as being for juniors or young learners). Therefore, students aged 16 and 17 are advised that they will be attending classes with students aged 18 and over. Under 18 year olds may be required to pay a guardian fee, provide custodianship documents, live in Kaplan-approved accommodation, book Kaplan’s airport transfer service (these are compulsory in Australia and New Zealand) and purchase Kaplan medical insurance. All students under 18 must provide a signed Minor Authorization form prior to arrival, and for Canada they must also provide a signed Health Declaration and excursion waiver form.

UK/Ireland: The British and Irish governments require all students under 18 to submit a Waiver form and an Authorisation of Emergency Medical Treatment form which will be provided at the time of booking.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS1. Rules and regulations: Students’ arrangements with Kaplan are governed by the law of the country where the particular school attended is located.

2. Arrivals and departures: All accommodation is booked from the Saturday or Sunday before the course start date until the Saturday morning after the course end date, unless otherwise advised. A partial week may be counted as 1 week’s accommodation. Students arriving between 22:30 – 6:00 may be asked to book alternative accommodation in a hotel on their fi rst night due to late/early arrival at accommodation.

3. Late arrivals, vacations and absences: If you begin your enrolment late or are absent during your course, no refund will be made for the time missed. Periods of absence cannot be made up with a free extension of the course. Vacation dates are pre-built into the Academic Year and Academic Semester programmes and students cannot make changes to these dates. Breaks taken at other times will be marked as periods of absence. For other courses, granting of any session breaks after the course has started will be at the discretion of individual schools and may incur a change fee or be marked as a period of absence.

4. Meals and classes missed: No refunds or substitutions will be made for meals or classes missed due to exams,

excursions, internships, fi rst day orientation or other obligations that fall outside the normal schedule.

5. Public holidays: Classes are normally not held and most school facilities are closed on public holidays. All published course start dates fall on a Monday. If the Monday is a public holiday, the start date will fall on a Tuesday. Compensation will not be made for classes not offered on public holidays.

6. Campus facilities: Students attending a Kaplan school at a university or college campus location are advised that campus facilities may not be available during campus holidays. Further details are available from the Kaplan booking offi ce.

7. 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 programme type after your course has started, you will be charged a change fee of GBP60, EUR85, USD100, CAD100, AUD75, NZD75 which is payable at the time the request is made. Kaplan is not obliged to fulfi ll any change request. Academic Year or Academic Semester students cannot transfer to a different Kaplan school during term time. If changing to a location where fees are lower, the difference in fees will not be refunded. If changing to a more expensive location or programme, the difference in fees will be charged. All changes are subject to Kaplan’s discretion and require approval of the Programme Director. You will not be charged a change fee if you extend your course, but late homestay extensions in Canada may require a re-placement fee of CAD100. 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’).

8. Duration of lessons: All English lessons are 45 minutes in duration unless otherwise stated. Courses run from Monday to Friday and lessons are scheduled both in the morning and the afternoon with different shifts at various times of year.

9. Substitution policy: If, after the placement test taken on arrival at the school, a student is found to be at a level which is not appropriate for their booked course, the school reserves the right to place the student in an appropriate level class, which may have fewer lessons and a different curriculum. Students who do not have the ability to follow any course on offer may be required to terminate their studies with Kaplan. We also reserve the right to cancel courses at short notice due to insuffi cient demand.

10. Programme changes: Kaplan has the right to change course dates, course curricula, tutors, locations and programmes at any time at its discretion. However, in cases where the course is rescheduled prior to the start of the fi rst course and the new date is unacceptable to the student, all fees will be refunded.

11. Prices: Kaplan has the right to change prices due to tax increases, governmental actions or other events beyond Kaplan’s control. Prices are valid for courses starting in 2011.

12. Books and learning materials: All books and learning materials will be made available to students during their course. A book deposit (GBP25, EUR35, USD40) may be charged at the beginning of the course. This will be refunded at the end of the course, if the books are returned in good condition. In Canada, New Zealand and Australia a materials fee is charged to students to cover the cost of such items. Some specialised courses may require the purchase of books.

13. Residential housing deposit: A refundable housing deposit of up to GBP250, EUR200, USD500, CAD600, NZD250-500 or AUD250 may be charged on arrival to students taking residential accommodation in the UK, Ireland, USA, Canada, New Zealand and Australia. The deposit is returned unless there is damage, loss or extra cleaning to be paid for on the student’s departure. In some cases the deposit may be non-refundable if the booking is cancelled.

14. Expulsion/Suspension: Any student who commits a criminal offence, violates the student conduct code or school policy, has, in Kaplan’s opinion, a poor attendance record (whether or not such attendance is in breach of any visa attendance requirements) or fails to pay an amount he or she is directly or indirectly liable to pay Kaplan in order to undertake the course, may be expelled or suspended.

Such companies and persons will in no circumstances have any liability for indirect or consequential losses or damages.

16. Force majeure: Kaplan will not be liable in cases where Kaplan is unable to fulfi l any services to which they are contractually bound because of fi re, natural disaster, act of government, failure of suppliers or subcontractors, labour disputes or other reasons which are beyond Kaplan’s control.

17. Codes of practice: Kaplan has agreed to observe and be bound by the Code of Practice for the Pastoral Care of International Students published by the New Zealand Minister of Education and by the Australian National Code of Practice 2007 and the Educational Services for Overseas Students Act 2000 (ESOS Act 2000). Information on these Codes is available on request from Kaplan or from www.minedu.govt.nz and www.aei.gov.au/AEI/ESOS

Agreement to the Kaplan Terms and Conditions does not remove the student’s right to take further action under Australia’s consumer protection laws, or their right to pursue other legal remedies under Australian law. All additional information and documents can be found on the Kaplan website: www.kaplaninternational.com

19. Student Visa Australia/UK/USA/NZ: Student visa holders are required to provide Kaplan with a current residential address and telephone number at all times, maintain satisfactory academic progress and attend a minimum of 80% of their course (in Australia/USA/NZ; 85% in New York).

Students who fail to show up for their enrolment or with less than 80% attendance (in Australia/USA/NZ; 85% in New York) or who miss ten days (UK) will be reported to the Department of Immigration and Citizenship (DIAC) in Australia, The Border Agency in the UK, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in the USA or to NZIS in New Zealand. Information collected by Kaplan which personally identifi es a student and information regarding a student’s course progress may be shared with the Australian State and Federal or British government, designated authorities, the Tuition Assurance Scheme (Australia), students’ parents, Kaplan staff and representatives and the ESOS Assurance Fund Manager (Australia). This information may include personal and contact details, course enrolment details and changes, and circumstances of any suspected breach by the student of any visa condition. Any school-aged dependents accompanying overseas students to Australia will be required to pay full fees if they are enrolled in either a government or non-government school.

REFUND POLICYRefunds will be made via the Kaplan representative to whom the fees were originally paid, or to the student’s bank account in the same country in which the fees were originally paid.

Australia: Refunds will be paid within 14 working days of written notifi cation. In accordance with sections 27-31 of ESOS Act 2000, providing the student has not withdrawn before the default day, Kaplan will pay a full refund to the student within 14 days if the course being offered does not commence on the agreed starting day; or the course stops being provided at any time after it starts and before it is completed; or the course is not provided in full to the student because a sanction has been imposed on the college. This agreement, and the availability of complaints and appeals process, does not remove the

right of the student to take action under Australia’s customer protection laws.

Canada: A refund will be made less all nonrefundable service charges (airport transfer, courier fees, enrolment fees, medical insurance, accommodation placement fee, administrative fee, etc.) and a CAD100 change fee.
