Fast Tracking
- Structure and duration of our courses are subject to change. Course fees reflect the content of the course and the award, not the duration; therefore, there is no automatic reduction of tuition fees if you complete the course in a shorter duration than the published length of the course. Tuition fees may be reduced or refunds may be granted if you are granted sufficient credits or exemptions.
- If you ‘fast track’ and complete your course in a shorter time than that specified in your Letter of Offer, you are not entitled to any refund of tuition fees. Any monies outstanding at completion (includes tuition fees, late charges, bank charges) may affect your eligibility to graduate.
