Tuition Refund Policy
Refund Policy for Early Withdrawal or Termination
In the event that a student withdraws from a program or is terminated by the school prior to completion of that program, AIMS Education shall adhere to the refund policy listed below. The refund policy is applicable per academic year (900 hours) and is based on the student’s last date of attendance. The student must officially notify the Academic Department of his or her desire to withdraw from the school prior to requesting a refund. Any fee reductions or scholarships awarded will be apportioned appropriately to all academic years involved. When calculating the refund amount for a particular academic year, all fee reductions and scholarships will be excluded.
