BWS Germanlingua will charge a Euro 300,- security deposit for staying in the school-owned shared apartments and studio apartments. The security can be deposited either in advance, giving us Credit Card Details/Authorization, or in Cash on the first day of school. This is to guarantee payment of any repairs or replacements of damaged apartment furnishings or equipment, and/or lost keys and/or other problems that should occur due to the disregard of our housing regulations. The deposit will be given back on the last day of school, either in cash or credit card details will be shredded.
Written requests for changes in the registration will be considered if possible. In this case we will charge an administration fee of € 50. If a change in registration is not possible, the original registration remains valid unless it is cancelled. The cancellation of a registration must be requested in writing. There is no cancellation fee up to 30 days prior to arrival, but there is no refund of the down-payment of € 200. Up to 14 days prior to arrival the cancellation fee is € 200 and from 13 days up to arrival € 500. There is no refund for the down-payment of € 200, for the invitation letter of €80 as well as for the university placement fee of € 700. In case the university does not accept your credentials, we grant you a refund of € 500. Full payment is still required in case a participant does not arrive, arrives late, only participates sporadically or cancels a registration after having started his or her tuition and/or accommodation.
If you are unable to attend classes due to illness or other circumstances, it is important to let us know by telephone or email, particularly if you are going to miss one-to-one or online lessons. For one-to-one and online lessons, there is a 24 hour cancellation policy – if you let us know in advance of 24 hours we can re-arrange one-to-one or online lessons, but otherwise the missed lesson is ‘lost’. Group lessons (standard, intensive, mini-group, evening courses or additional bookings) which fall on a public holiday or are missed because of illness or similar will not be made up for at a later date.
