Community Classes - General Information

Refund of Tuition Fees

If you decide to withdraw from any course, refund of your tuition fee is at the discretion of the College in line with the Access and Outreach Department’s Refund of Tuition Fees Policy. Copies of the Policy will be available at enrolment or on request from the Performance and Community Engagement Department. Refunds will be pro rata and subject to an administration fee.

Closure of Courses

The College reserves the right to cancel a course when the number of students enrolled or attending is too low. In the event of this happening you may be transferred, wherever possible, to another suitable course. When this is not possible your fees will be refunded (pro rata) in line with the Refund of Tuition Fees Policy.

Examinations

Students wishing to take external examinations (including GCSE Music, Associated Board, Trinity, and Rock School) will be required to pay their own fee.

For instrumental examinations, if an accompanist is required an additional fee will be payable.

If you fail to sit an examination for which you have been entered you may be liable for payment of the examination fee.
