Withdrawing

Have you chosen to fund your course through an advanced learner loan and are thinking of withdrawing from your course?

Depend­ing on the date of your with­draw­al, Stu­dent Finance Eng­land may not pay your full tuition fee lia­bil­i­ty, so a por­tion of your fee may be invoiced direct­ly to you by the Col­lege. It’s impor­tant to remem­ber that any monies paid over to the col­lege by Stu­dent Finance Eng­land will still form part of your loan to be repaid in future years.

What if I withdraw before the course starts?

You will have no fee lia­bil­i­ty and can can­cel any stu­dent loans you have applied for.

What if I withdraw after I have started to attend classes?

Your fee lia­bil­i­ty will depend on when you with­draw. You will have a four-week cool­ing-off peri­od from the date that your course starts until you become liable for the annu­al course fee. The fol­low­ing will apply accord­ing to the fund­ing method cho­sen after this period:

• Flexpay Instalments
  The balance of the loan will become payable in full.
• Adult Learner Loan
  The balance of the annual fee, less any monies received by the college from Student Finance England will be due.
• Employer Funded
  Fees will be due whether paid by the employer, or not, at the time of withdrawal. The liability lies with the student.
• Self Funded
  Fees should be paid prior to enrolment so no refund will be given

If you withdraw within the cooling off period, a small admin charge to be made according to the fees policy.
