Fees Payment Withdrawal and Refunds | Laurus Education NZ

Fees and payment

Your programme fee information identifies tuition, materials, application charges and every other compulsory cost. All Laurus NZ advertised student fees are in New Zealand dollars and include GST. Read the programme fee schedule and your written Letter of Offer before accepting.

Understand the full cost

Ask which resources are supplied and which you must obtain yourself. Depending on your programme, these may include internet access, relevant PPE, and placement-related checks. We will confirm required items and costs before enrolment. 

Do not assume a promotional tuition amount includes all other charges. Each student must bring their own laptop.

WITHDRAWAL AND REFUNDS

All Laurus NZ programmes are longer than three months. For domestic students withdrawing within the applicable eight-calendar-day refund period, fees paid are refunded less the lesser of 10% of the fees paid or NZD $S00. 

For international students withdrawing before or within the statutory refund period ending after the first 10 working days of required tuition, any retention is limited to evidenced, permitted expenses and cannot exceed 25% of the fee total.

After the applicable withdrawal period, Laurus NZ does not provide an automatic withdrawal refund. The Chief Executive Officer (New Zealand) and the Laurus NZ Board may consider a discretionary refund. 

Any statutory entitlement, provider non-delivery entitlement or more favourable contractual commitment still applies.

Fees paid are refunded in full if a programme fails to start or an international student fails to obtain the appropriate visa. If delivery stops after commencement, the unused portion of fees is refundable in accordance with the applicable Student Fee Protection arrangements. Voluntary closure or course cessation is subject to the statutory minimum pro rata refund and the applicable processing requirements.

Deciding to withdraw

Tell us in writing as soon as you decide to withdraw. You can use the withdrawal form or email your lecturer or the Admissions team. We will help you complete the Public Trust withdrawal and refund documentation. An administrative form does not remove a statutory entitlement. Refunds are returned to the original source of payment under the baseline policy. 

If you disagree with a decision, use our complaints process or contact Study Complaints.
