 Cancellation and Refund Policy (ILSC - San Francisco)
To receive a refund of any portion of tuition fees, you must give ILSC written notice that you intend to withdraw from the program in which you have enrolled. If your Study Permit or Visa is denied, or you cancel before your program start date, ILSC will retain the $100 non-refundable Registration Fee and if applicable, the $95 Accommodation Registration Fee. If you cancel in writing after your program starts or are dismissed from ILSC for just cause after your program starts, you will be refunded the following proportion of your tuition fees:
- If notice of cancellation is made through attendance at the first class session, or the seventh day after enrollment, (whichever is later): ILSC shall refund 100% of the amount paid for institutional charges, less the application fee and homestay placement fee, not to exceed two hundred and fifty dollars ($250)
- If you have completed 60% or less of the period of attendance, ILSC shall refund 100% of unused tuition
- If you complete more than 60% of your program, ILSC shall NOT refund any portion of tuition.
If you have an F-1 student visa with an I-20 issued by ILSC and you cancel before your program starts or do not show up for class, we will retain the first 4 weeks of tuition fees as well as all non-refundable charges up to $250.
Change of schedules is considered the same as cancellation. For example, for a schedule change Full-Time Intensive Premium (32 lessons/wk) to Full-Time Intensive (28 lessons/wk), you will have to cancel the whole program and re-apply for the Full-Time program. Monetary charges as indicated above will apply. Please note that you are NOT able to change schedules that lead to a status change unless you have first officially changed status in the U.S.
Specialty programs are not transferrable to core programs. If you change your program from a specialty program to a core program, you have to cancel the specialty program and re-apply for the core program.
If you are eligible for a refund under the conditions above, you will receive the refund within 45 days of ILSC receiving written notice of cancellation or ILSC's notice to you of dismissal.
*Program is defined as whatever length of time a student registers for.
