1. Registration

Each participant must fill in and sign a registration form on the first day of the course at the latest. The signed registration form has the same value as a contract. With his or her registration the student declares that he or she has taken note of the general conditions and has accepted them in their entirety. The minimum age is 16. For minors, the registration form requires parental agreement (co-signature of the contract).

2. Finances

A registration fee of CHF 30.- is added to the course tuition fees and is paid on reception of the first bill. The tuition fees must be settled by means of the payment slip attached to the bill.
Payment of other expenses arising from the courses (bocks, material, registration for official examinations, teacher’s transportation costs, etc.) is carried out in the same way as for the tuition fees.
Bills must be paid within the time limit indicated.
Each bill which is due but unpaid within this time is considered as a recognition of debt according to article 82 LP of Swiss Law.
Concerning courses of specific length, the total amount of the tuition fees must be paid in advance.

Intensive courses of 6 to 12 months’ duration with an “entry visa”

In accordance with instructions given by the Swiss authorities, if an “entry visa” is required by the Population Service, half at least of the total amount of the tuition fees must be paid in advance (that is : 3 months for a stay of 6 months, 6 months for a stay of 12 months). An administration fee (CHF. 300.-) for each student’s file is added to the tuition fees and must also be paid in advance. This administration fee cannot be refunded.
