Fees Payment Dates
Program fees may be paid in instalments rather than one lump sum.
Payment is in advance of work for the program. Thus the payment schedule is:

Request a copy of our resource Approximate total program-related costs for AGST Alliance programs, which gives indicative figures for these items.
Scholarships
We regret that no scholarship money is directly available from AGST Alliance.
However, we actively support student applications to trusts/foundations for financial assistance.
Fees refund
If a student withdraws from a program, a request for fees refunds may be considered; but the student should initiate the request within three months of withdrawing.
If a student withdraws from the program for other than significant compassionate reasons, no refund of fees will be made.
If a student has paid fees in advance, a refund equivalent to complete components of the program (e.g. coursework modules) not attended will be refundable.
An administration fee of 10% of the amount to be refunded will be charged for fees refunds.
