Returning a completed application form and receiving an offer of a place constitutes a firm contract with The London School of Journalism. The payment of a deposit reserves your place on the course, but this reservation will be lost if the balance of fees due is not received by The London School of Journalism by the date stated on your application form or, if no date is specified, at least fourteen days before your course is due to start.
Course fees are refundable only as follows: Withdrawing from the courses 45 days or more prior to your first module will incur a charge of 15% of the total course fee; withdrawing less than 45 days but more than 30 days before course commencement will incur a charge of 50% of the total course fee. If less than 30 days' notice is given and the course has not started, no refunds will be made in respect of withdrawals. The LSJ may at its absolute discretion make refunds of fees in other circumstances or allow fees to be carried forward against a different course.
Once a course has commenced the full fees are due regardless of whether or not a student completes the course.
Students may defer individual modules up to 45 days before the commencement date. Deferrals made less than 45 days before the commencement date will incur an administrative charge of £250.
Courses held in the United Kingdom are provided by The London School of Journalism Ltd, all or part of courses held outside of the EU are provided by Open Learning Ltd, licensed to trade outside of the EU as The London School of Journalism. The course fee quoted covers the provision of both supplies.
In the event of unforeseen circumstances this course may be cancelled by the LSJ, in which case full refunds of all fees already paid will be made. Notice of cancellation in writing will be given a minimum of 14 days before the start date.
