• Full payment for the whole duration of the course (eligible for 5% discount)
• Rest of the balance (other 50%) before the commencement of second semester of the year.
• Mutually agreed payment plan for the rest of the fees. However students must incur a 3% interest of the fees.

1. If a student is unable to join a course due to refusal by a Government authority to grant a student visa (if for failure to secure the 30 points required by the Point Based System for academic matters)) all tuition fees paid will be refunded less the registration fee of £100 and an administrative charge of £200. Any Registration Fees paid to the external bodies will not be refunded. In this case the student must submit the official refusal letter and all original documentation including the Confirmation of Acceptance of Studies (CAS) and receipts issued by the College within 4 weeks from the date of refusal. The College will then send out a Refund Application Form which must be clearly completed and sent back with the official refusal letter to the College. Refunds will be processed within 30 days of receipt of the completed refund application form

1. Failure to observe condition 1 above will lead to no claims being accepted and no refunds being made. Prospective students who do not apply for refunds for any other reason will not be given any refunds if LCMS is not informed before the commencement of the course.
2. Anyone who has been refused an entry clearance (visa) into the UK due to falsified documents would not receive any refunds at all.
3. Once a student is accepted and enrolled on any course at the college, it will not be possible to defer the commencement of the course except under exceptional circumstances; however a deferment fee equivalent to the first intake will be charged.
4. Overseas students can defer a course for which they are enrolled only once. However, deferment must be made before the commencement of the programme where an administrative charge will be applicable.
5. If a student voluntarily opts out of a programme, fees already paid are not refundable and payment for the whole of that academic year will be chargeable.
6. If the college decides on valid grounds not to run a course or terminates a particular course before its completion, due to lack of a viable number of students or any other reason, students may transfer to an alternative course at LCMS or the tuition fees already paid for the remaining duration of the course will be refunded.
7. In the event of the college having its license withdrawn the students will be entitled to a refund for the time of the remainder of the course fees already paid.
8. Overseas students that have had a visa application denied but are appealing against the decision may not ask for a refund whilst their matter is still being considered by the relevant Embassy in their country. A refund will only be granted if the appeal is refused and only in accordance with the procedure stated as above in Rule 1.
9. If a student chooses to withdraw from a course, the following refund policy will be applied:
   • If written notice is given 4 or more weeks before the commencement of the course, all fees paid will be refunded less £300.
   • If less than 4 weeks notice is given before the course commencement £500 will be retained by the College.
   • After the commencement of the course no fees can be refunded and payment for the whole academic year will be charged from the student.
   • In all cases, students who have been provided with documentation confirming their enrolment at LCMS are not eligible for any refund (except at the discretion of the College).

If students want to defer the course to the next intake a deferment fee equivalent to the first intake will be charged.

Sanctions for Non Payment of Fees

1. Students will be penalised for non-payment of course fees especially where no viable explanation for missing a payment is given to the College. A £50 charge will be applied for non-payment of instalments when they are due.
2. The College will withdraw students that continuously fail to comply with payment plans that they have agreed to. Two warnings (one verbal and the other written) will be issued, after which, any such student will be withdrawn from the course and subsequently the College. In this case, no money will be refunded to the student.
3. Students that pay by Cheque that return unpaid will be charged £50 and the College will no longer accept further payments by personal Cheque submitted by them. Any bank charges incurred will be borne by the student. The College will add any charge incurred to the students’ total course fees outstanding.
