Course costsAll tuition fees and awarding body costs are non-refundable, unless the course is cancelled by the college. The advertised course fees are for the full duration of the course.

Payment planDarlington College offers an instalment payment plan for tuition fees. You are required to pay 25% of the tuition fee at the point of enrolment along with the examination and registration fees.

The remaining 75% of the tuition fee will be collected in monthly instalments by direct debit concluding one month before the end of the course.

Failure to make payment on the due date will result in all outstanding fees being immediately due. Continued failure to pay course fees may result in your removal from the course of study.

If you withdraw from your course before completion you will still be liable for payment of all outstanding fees.

Exam late entries and re-sitsRegistration and exam entries that do not meet awarding body closing dates means you may become liable for late fees payments. There is no remission on late entry fees. Contact Exams on 01325 503104 for further details. Examination re-sits may be charged at the discretion of the college. Any student requiring more than 2 re-sits of any individual examination will be referred to the curriculum manager and a fee will be charged at the discretion of the manager. The manager will ensure that adequate tuition is received before another re-sit is booked. If a fee is required it will be charged at the awarding organisation fee plus 10% administration cost. If a re-sit is requested for an examination that has been passed, in order to improve a grade, this will be charged at the same rate as above.
