Those applications for cancellation or reduction of the enrolment concerned which are submitted at least 14 calendar days prior to the start of the Academic Year will receive a 100% refund of the fees paid over at the time of formalizing the enrolment in the form of payment of credits. After this time, no reimbursement will be forthcoming.

The reimbursement which comes under this heading should be applied for by using the standard form available and should be accompanied by the original or copy of the payment slip concerned and / or by the corresponding justificatory proof in those cases in which the reason for requesting a reimbursement might require justification.

Modification of Enrolment

Enrolment is undertaken on a year-long basis and, in general, modifications are not allowed. However, each year, within the Academic and Enrolment Calendar, a stipulated period is set aside for modifications to Enrolment for justifiable reasons (mainly due to the cancellation of elective subjects which were to have been taught).

The modification concerned will consist of replacing certain subjects with others. The minimum number of students required so as to ensure the teaching of a subject is 6, so that a subject cannot be replaced by another, if the replacement subject is left with less than 6 students enrolled in it.
