- Added the following sentence on accommodation changes:
"There is an additional 5,250 yen charge to change accommodation type after accommodation has been arranged."
March 19, 2008
- Term 9, Refunds, changed to "Partial Refunds", to reflect the fact that previous terms dealt with full refunds.
- Term 9-2 rewritten to clarify that there are no refunds when the first day of classes is a national holiday, as level check test, orientation, etc. are still held on that day.
- Term 9-3 added, as follows:
"If the applicant is absent from scheduled group classes, no refund will be provided regardless of the reason. However, at the School's discretion, the School may allow the student to join other scheduled classes of the same duration. For example, if a student misses two days of classes, in some cases it may be possible to extend the student's stay by two days for no extra cost , if an applicable class is already scheduled. In these cases, a new class will not be made specifically for the applicant.- If the applicant is absent from scheduled private classes, no refund or makeup class will be provided. However, if the applicant contacts the school by 3pm of the previous day to cancel the lesson, a makeup class or, where makeup class is not possible, a refund will be provided."
September 30, 2007
- Changelog created.
- The following sentences added:
- Accommodation is contracted directly between the applicant and the accommodation provider, NOT the School. The School acts as the contract facilitator. In case of contractual claims related to accommodation, the School will do all in our power to help, but the contractual responsibility lies with the accommodation provider, and the School cannot accept responsibility for provisions outside the terms of this contract.
- For example, if the student wishes to cancel the accommodation early, there may be a cancellation fee levied by the accommodation provider, in addition to any School cancellation fees provided for in these Terms. Clarify with the accommodation provider in advance, if you do not receive notification.
- The word "maximum" added to this sentence, to clarify that fees lower than 10,000 yen may be charged, depending on circumstances:
"If the applicant requests to change the date or duration of study, accommodation, or other conditions, a maximum 10,000 yen alteration fee may be required at the discretion of the school."
