 Deposits & Fee Payments

A 15% deposit is required to confirm a course booking. The balance of all course fees will need to be paid in full by 30 days prior to Course commencement. Once you book onto a course that is the course you must undertake or risk forfeiting your deposit.

PLEASE NOTE that your deposit is non refundable and non transferable unless you have a medical reason or in other exceptional circumstances. If you cannot commence the course please give us as much notice as possible to avoid further administration charges.

If a student fails to pay all specified outstanding Course fees to TUCF by the due date (30 days prior to Course commencement), the Student will forfeit all monies paid, along with their place on the Course.
