Transfer, Withdrawal & Refund Policy

Transfers

Course Transfer refers to a student request for a transfer to another course within CA International College prior to the completion of the course where the student is currently enrolled.Transfers would require the student to withdraw from the current course and register for the new course.If the transfer is initiated by us (eg you graduate to the next level or we close a course) no transfer fee is charged or payable. The transfer fee is $100.If the student initiates the transfer, then the student will only be charged the transfer fee on the second transfer per course registration.Once the course has started, students may “transfer” the remaining lessons as follows:

  • 20% of the balance of lessons will be transferred to a spouse or;
  • 10% of the balance of lessons will be transferred to a friend.

Withdrawals

Course Withdrawal refers to a student’s request for withdrawal from a course prior to the completion of the course where the student is currently enrolled.
