Hi

I applied today for a course, but may be having second thoughts.

Does anyone know at what point is "the point of no return" for backing out before starting the course.

E.g. if I choose not to go ahead, by not sending the form back am I OK to do this, or by clicking the apply button am I already too late?

Thanks

The site says:
"Will I be charged if I withdraw from my course?
We accept that sometimes there are exceptional circumstances where it simply isn’t possible for you to complete your course. In these instances we will work with you to find a suitable solution.
However, if you choose to withdraw from your course you may have to pay a fee to cover administration costs. This is fully dependent on what stage you are at on your course and the policy of the college you are studying with. If you have any questions please call us on0191 215 4100."


So I'd say you're fine to back out at any point before you actually start the work for the course. After that point you may be charged.

Hi

I saw that but I don't think I have actually signed up yet - I wanted to know when that stage was. I have emailed them to ask.

Thanks

Once you're ready to start the course you'll get a tutor. You'll get a letter once you're fully signed up which will tell you the college and you'll be able to log in and get started on an assignment.

If you've not even sent the form back to apply you won't be charged as you haven't officially applied, just shown interest. I got a form years ago and never filled it out, didn't hear anything from them.

Thank you. I just looking in to the course which I had applied for and I don't think it will be of any benefit. The one that would doesn't have funding in my area. I think I will stick with my AAT and stay on track for the next level of this rather than trying to do something else in the meantime.
