Confirmation of Enrolment / Method of payment

On receiving the registration form and payment of a deposit of €200.-, we will issue a confirmation of enrolment to the course participant. This serves as an invoice and contains all important information about the course, the arrival dates and the method of payment. The enire course fee must be paid at the latest 3 weeks prior to commencement of the course. Bank fees for money transfer will have to be paid by the participant. In case the course fee is not paid on time, we reserve the right not to admit the participant into the course.

In case of minors registering for our Young People's Programme, they must be enroled by their guardian.

In case the minimum number of students for the booked course is not reached, the course will only take place if the participants agree to a raise in course fee or a cut in the number of lessons.

Any notice of cancellations has to be given in written form.

In case of cancellation of the enrolment up until 3 weeks prior to the start of the course, we charge an administration fee of € 100.-. If a participant cancels a course less than 3 weeks prior to the start of the course, 40% of the full course fee will be due as cancellation fee. If an enrolled participants does not arrive for the course, arrives late or curtails a course, he/she is not entitled to any kind of refund for the remaining lessons, the leisure programme or the accommodation.
