Policies and Procedures

At IB Hochschule, we strive to maintain transparent and student-friendly policies to ensure a smooth academic journey. Below, you’ll find detailed information regarding our Refund and Deferral policies. We recommend all students familiarize themselves with these guidelines to avoid any inconvenience.

Refund Policy

We understand that unforeseen circumstances may arise, and we aim to support students within the framework of our institutional policies. Our refund policy is outlined as follows:

1. Students may withdraw from the study contract within 14 days of submission; the registration fee is non-refundable, but the tuition deposit of €2,500 will be refunded.
2. After 14 days, both the registration fee and the €2,500 tuition deposit become non-refundable.
3. In case of visa refusal, students must notify the university within 7 business days through the CRM system and provide a valid visa refusal letter.
4. Upon visa refusal, the tuition deposit and any tuition fees paid will be refunded, minus a €250 administrative fee.
5. If the visa is approved and the student still withdraws, no refund will be issued.

Deferral Policy

IB Hochschule allows flexibility for students needing to postpone their admission. Our deferral policy is outlined below:

1. Students may request a deferral to the next intake, subject to university approval.
2. Deferral requests should be submitted to the admissions team with appropriate documentation or reasons.
3. Students are advised to submit deferral requests within 14 days of the program start date.
4. Late deferral requests will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
5. Only one deferral to the immediate next intake is permitted; further deferrals require payment of a new registration fee.

Subsequent Deferrals Deferral to the immediate next intake is allowed. However, any additional or second deferral will require the payment of a new registration fee.
