TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Students attention is particularly drawn to this section, as registration on a programme
constitutes full and irrevocable acceptance of our terms and conditions.

By registering on a programme, you acknowledge that you have read, understood and agree to
abide by the full General Terms and Conditions and Key Terms and Conditions Postgraduate
Programmes including important information on admissions criteria and language proficiency,
limitation on liability, refunds, UKBA attendance requirements, privacy policy and payment terms.

Key Terms and Conditions Postgraduate Programmes
1. Attendance and Immigration Regulations:
Attendance is compulsory. Students on a Student Visa must have a minimum on-campus attendance rate of
90%, to meet the requirements of their VISA. Failure to adhere to the attendance requirements will lead to
failure in the course and may result in expulsion from the programme. Students must familiarise themselves
with UK Border Agency regulations and at all times abide by the conditions of their visa. Students must inform
London School of Business & Finance (LSBF) immediately of any change to their immigration status.
The student agrees that he/she cannot change, defer or withdraw from the programme without prior consent
from LSBF. Any failure to start the course as scheduled without prior notification of the School's authorities
will lead to expulsion from the course. No refunds will be given.

2. Deposit and Fees:
2.1 Upon acceptance onto one of the programmes, all students are required to pay the holding deposit of 3,000.
Please note that all accepted students will be required to pay full tuition fees prior to course start date.
2.2 Fees & tuition are subject to change. Please verify programme fees each year before commencement.
2.3 All fees must be paid 30 days before the start of the programme. Students who have not paid on time will not
be granted access to the School.
2.4 A charge of 50 will be made to students for all dishonoured payments. LSBF reserves the right to report
offenders to their relevant professional body.
2.5 All fees exclude amounts payable to the professional body for student registration, exemptions and
examination entries.
2.6 Promotions and offers may have restricted eligibility requirements and may change from time to time.
2.7 You may defer your place on a programme by up to one academic year. You must make an application for
deferral at least 30 days before the published course start date. If you choose to defer your place you will be
required to cover the full amount of your fees when applying for the deferral. If you fail to cover the full
amount of your fees at this stage, your deposit will be automatically forfeit.
2.8 Failure to start the course within two weeks of its start date without prior notification of LSBF authorities will
lead to termination from the course. No refunds will be given and any relevant visa will be withdrawn.
2.9 Expenses information:
Students should expect to spend between 750 and 950 per month for living, transport, food, etc. Average
rent in London can start from 75 to 250 per week for a single room in a shared house. Expenses will be
higher at the beginning of the stay in London (deposit for rent - usually 1 month). Some of the programmes
require book purchases, and students should allow an approximate budget 200 for this purpose. Please note
that there are no extra charges for study materials as they are covered by the tuition fees.

3. Visa Application:
Students intending to apply for a Tier 4 VISA to study at LSBF are required to provide all relevant supporting
documentation relating to previous qualifications / experience. Please note that failure to supply such
documentation will delay your application. All documents supplied must also be sent to UKBA/The British
Overseas High Commission, to support your visa application. Failure to do so will result in your application for
a VISA being refused, in which case no refund will be provided. The School reserves the right to disclose
students' details, including academic progress and attendance rates to the Home Office authorities.

4. Refunds:
4.1 Once letters have been issued confirming full time status, no refunds or programme transfers are permissible
other than in the instance of VISA refusal. Refunds in the case of a visa refusal will only be issued according
with our Refunds Policy, which is contained in the full General Terms and Conditions.
4.2 Your attention is particularly drawn to the fact that you will NOT qualify for a refund if you have failed to
submit the required documentation with your visa application (including evidence of adequate financial
support maintenance), or the documents you have submitted are found to be not genuine, if you make a
dishonest misrepresentation or otherwise act not in good faith.
4.3 All applications for a refund must be made at least 15 days prior the published course start date and are
subject to an administration charge of 100 (plus any courier and transfer charges). It is your responsibility to
satisfy yourself that compliance with the notification guidelines is possible prior to making an application. In
circumstances when notification under this clause will be impossible, an application by the student forms a
waiver of the rights under this clause.

5. Student Conduct:
5.1 LSBF reserves the right to dismiss any student at any time for non-payment of fees or lack of attendance. No
fees will be refunded for any student dismissed under this section.
5.2 LSBF reserves the right to inform the appropriate authorities, including the UKBA where a student has been
removed from LSBF under section 5.1 above.
5.3 We send out important student information (including timetable updates, class changes, etc.) exclusively by
email. It is your full responsibility to ensure that we have your correct and up-to-date email address in our
records, and that you open, read and acts upon such email notifications.

6. Sponsored Masters Courses and Added-Value Services:
6.1 Eligibility to benefit from a sponsored Masters course is strictly restricted to students who pay their full fees
at least 15 days prior to the published start date of the programme. Sponsorship of the Masters course fees
covers the tuition fees only, but does not include incidentals including textbooks and exam entry/assessment
fees (118 per module), dissertation mentoring fees (250), dissertation submission fees (150) and final
academic board presentation fees (150), and fees for exemptions and deferrals. Students are responsible for
payment of such fees, which are mandatory for enrolment and progression on the Masters course.
6.2 Availability of the online resources and other added-value services cannot be guaranteed due to reasons
beyond LSBFs control, including technical faults and limitations.

Our Terms and Conditions are subject to change. We communicate changes through updates to our website so
